you know what else was demonized? a wrinkle in time, those books..i forget who wrote them. never occurred to me at the time, though.
Madeline L'Engle wrote them...and how were they demonized? one of them fictionalizes the Flood
as far as i remember, that was the book where those kids could travel around space in the 4th dimension.... and those 3 witches helped them.. and there was that big brain that controlled everything...
i thought they weren't really witches---isn't that just what people THOUGHT they were? i'm just saying that in comparison to a series such as narnia which actually says Jesus name in the last book...
i don't remember the sex in citr...just a couple of eff words. MAN i used to love that book.
maybe that was it? i thought he slept with a girlfriend or something though...guess i'll be rereading this
let me know...i have to get back to the dune series...i'm up to the 3rd book.
good series then?
oh yeah...the first book was definately way better than the movie, but when i watched it after reading the book, i could see that it's tough to adapt to screen. there's so much about character development and history and esp. everyone talking to themselves... anyway, the 2nd book (children of dune) was way cool. it's a great diversion from all the lotr going around.
yeah im gonna have to check those books out...they are doing a movie of the second book as well
i didn't hear that...at this point i'd only let peter jackson have a go at it...
yeah i don't remember when they're premiering it though...
The first book was AMAZING! That is my favorite novel. He created a whole universe, languages planets etc... And there is all of the classic stories, love story, etc. all in one book. I couldn't bring myself to read the second one because of what i heard....
which was???
that sounds really good...does anyone like the Ender series?
it's series? didn't know tha. only saw the one book. i need to start reading again. i'm becoming unlettered and ordinary
Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, Xeoncide, Children of the Mind
i'm reading a good book by the same author Orson Scott Card called Enchanted---it's kind of a play on the folk tale of Baba Yaga
