Guess I must be the only person in the world that has no desire to read her books or see the movies.

if I remember correctly there was a book or books back in the seventys or eightys that were along the same theme as the harry potter stuff.. >shrug< I might be mistaken, which wouldnt be the first time.

I used to Read pratchet, but his style never seemed to change or evolve one of his books is much like another. now the Dark is Rising series. I read that years ago and I can tell you that I remember it being great. Id most likely read it again if I could find it. LOL.]

for me Ill stick to Fiest and Tolkien those are what I call fantasy.
