Lol Bleach meets Harry Potter
Cant wait for this book to come out. I hope its the best one yet
interesting title... sure foreboding...
oh, and let this be the first and only warning: Spoiling on this book will not be tolerated. You can link to articles, make theories, all that, but no spoilers on the actual forums. You can link to something, but it has to be labeled properly and I don't want people discussing any spoiler contents lying within those links.
If you do spoil I will permaban you. I'd do much worse things if I could find out where you live. No excuses, no leniency, no drama. This is the only warning.
Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
I love his dedication to that end.Originally Posted by masamuneehs
On another Note, I cannot wait till it comes out. I am reading the previous book again right now to refresh my memory.
Interesting name.
But Im more interested on the publishing date.
I'm getting the feeling that a lot of forum members like the Harry Potter series. Personally I've never been interested in the books and at first thought they were just some childish prattle that was the rage in England and with WASP mothers in the US. However I've never craked the cover on any one of them so I haven't fully closed my mind to them. Since so many people here share in my tastes i'm wondering if I should give them a try, can anyone think of something they compare to so I might get an idea wheather I'd like the series or not?
how about you just watch the 4 movies. if you like then, go for it, id you dont, well then dont.
but dont base your decision on the second movie, cuz that was utter crap. the 3rd and 4th are pretty decent.
Hmm... trying to compare Harry Potter to something is a bit tough. It's a fantasy series and with any good fantasy, the world the author creates needs to be pretty damn convincing. I'd say that JK Rowling does a great job in that department... not to mention how fun it is to read about how a clock works in a certain house (for example). I mean, if a sci-fi book pauses to explain to me how a stupid clock works, I'll yawn and move on to something else. The world Rowling creates is convincing AND fun to read about. It tickles the kid in you.
Also, the books mature a lot as you keep going. The first book may have been exclusively geared towards your average grade school kid but by the 3rd or 4th one in, you realize that this storyline isn't just shits and giggles. Of course, you'll have to let pass some cheesy drama every once in a while but I didn't ever think that those mishaps detracted from the main storyline. JK Rowling is really good at capturing the attitudes and viewpoints of different age groups. Her character work is quite solid.
Basically, if you a lot of time on your hands (winter break?), start borrowing your friend's copy of book 1 and give it a try. If that doesn't suck you in, put it down and move on with your life. No biggie. But you really should just give it a shot and see for yourself.
