Please let it be good. Please don't screw it up. PLEASE.

Posted by SoaPiNuReYe (Member # 9144) on :

I'm looking forward to it.

Posted by Marlozhan (Member # 2422) on :

So, I have never read these. I know they are YA books, but how appealing are they to adults? Is it worth my time to read them? I enjoyed the Harry Potter series. Do these compare at all?

Posted by Shan (Member # 4550) on :

They are better than HP, and yes they appeal also to adults, and yes, you should definitely read them.

IMHO.

Of course.

I've never read this book, but do you suppose Robert Jordan took the title of The Shadow Rising from it?

Posted by School4ever (Member # 5575) on :

Oh, I hope this will be good, I hope they don't mess up one of my favorite books!!!

Posted by MyrddinFyre (Member # 2576) on :

That article leaves me feeling very hopeful. Very hopeful.

Check the copywrite dates for an answer to your question, Omega M?

Hawkins I hardly knew thee.

Also, John Benjamin Hickey (Freedom Writers, Flags of Our Fathers) as Professor Stanton?! I don't remember Will's dad (presumably) being a Professor. Wasn't he a jeweller?

I am trepidatious.
