Yes I read Arena and it totaly blew me away. For the sake of others I won't reveal why. As good as it is you have to be willing to take a jump into fantasy as Handcock does not always explain herself fully. If you liked Arena check out the Legends of the Guardian-King series. Which is Hancock latest writings. Three out of four books done and I am eagerly awaiting the next. Honestly, it was a great check for my life cause I kept wanting to characters to do ther right thing, then looked at my life and found I was acting like the characters walking down pathes I should not have. In sum Arena was great and Hancock's latest writings are better.
