I'm looking for a story about a football player who went to school to become a lawyer. He graduated but did not show up for draft because he was studying.... went on to play football also.

I really liked this story the first time I read it, highly recommend.
"R.J. Hartley is a small-town boy with big-time plans -- and the skills to make his dreams come true. The road to success is filled with ups and downs (and occasional ins and outs) until his goals finally meet reality. "
You know, I think the higher than normal activity in this thread has to do with Fel withdrawl
I'm currently reading An Officer's Duty (read A Soldier's Duty already) in the "Theirs Not to Reason Why" series which was recommended on here recently, quite enjoying it.
[quote="Dvorak"]Hey, several years ago I read a decent good book which I misplaced permanently shortly after. I haven't had any luck looking for it on my own and given the active reading population I figure it's worth a short asking if anyone here has heard of it. See the problem is I don't remember the title, the author, or any character names, though I do remember the general plot.
* Main Character is the son of a High General something or another who is friends with the King. He grows up intending to take over his fathers position and is brought up along side the King's son who eventually serves as the primary antagonist.
* Random girl is burned at the stake because she has strange eyes (red and green?) Main Character helps her die quickly and in return she does something to him (knocks him out, his eyes change, etc etc)
* Later, Main Character gets killed, instead of dying his spirit/soul or whatever in transferred into whoever killed him.
* Bunch of bad romance happens with a Queen of another kingdom, who ironically, is the daughter of a man the Main Character's new body killed (Drama!)
* Main Character tries to kill king, who is courting the Queen, fails, gets outed as the one who killed her father and is sent away in exile.
* King sends assassin after the guy, kills him, Main Character is now in a girls body, book ends.
That's basically it, let me know if you've heard of it!

I know this post quite old but I was reading the past posts looking for reading ideas and noticed no one had replied. Anyways I believe the story is Myrren's Gift by Fiona McIntosh part of series The Quickening
im searching for an story i read online some years ago. what i remember from it is :
an smiths apprentice is struck by lightning and gets reborn as a dwarf (by an tiger goddess)
he goes on to lead and evolve the dwarf race. and fund an religion about the goddess.
he learns magic.
I'm looking for a series of stories that have the following:
The main character in the first story is a young boy who learns to travel to alternate worlds through a "gap" in the fabric of the universe
The "base" is at a place called Chocowinity, NC.
In the other world, he, or another character, is pretty good at "magic" (I think).
I can't remember the author or the name of the series or any of the stories in it... and I had my harddrive crash that had all of my stories on it, so I can't search there.
