So, Ima, you like Chidren of the Lamp but not Eragon I like Children of the lamp too but Eragon's better

((Actually, Buks, Ima likes Eragon. Reuben, TNO (umlaut), myself and a few others do not... but let's please not bring that onto this thread, yes?))

Hmm, I read this book a long tme ago, I don't remember every aspect of it, and if memory serves I didn't read the other two (were there more?) books... but what I do recall of it, it was quite good. A bit slow at times, but slightly amusing and very well written. I thought I was the only one who'd ever heard of them; I'm glad to see otherwise.

((Yeah, TNÖ, MaryW, and I are BaB's resident "attack-popular-books" people. I scare off new people on a regular basis, accidentally.))

Guess what? I'm not gonna insult this book. In fact, I enjoyed it! Iblis is great.

SPOILERS FOR REST OF SERIES!

Why did he have to be destroyed so brutally???

((Ah, but that gives the impression that we just attack them 'cause they're popular. I dun know about you but I only attack books I don't like.))

((and as regularly as you scare off the newbies, I scold you and so do some others, hmm? but that time that you gave that girl who said she loved Twilight and Eddie the sparkly pants a like to the anti thread............GRR! I'm still a bit mad about that. Although, I don't like the books either. I met a boy recently who is a T-fan, and thinks that it's about POETRY, of all things. My response: "I thought it was about Eddie of the Sparkly Pants!" to which he said, "Well, you haven't been in love." AAARGH! LIke he HAS, or something!? He's only 12 like I am, for goodness sake! (see's that boy about every other week or so at the music store where I take clarinet lessons.........)))

Sorry that my friend BuksRul and I were kinda mean to you earlier, you know, in the Eragon recomendation. But have you read book five??? I think that every book is even better than the last.

Mary W., there are now five books. I have them all. And thank you for telling my best friend not to bring that up. I'm so mad about it!

I haven't read the rest of the series yet... oh well. I actually do slightly prefer Eragon to Children Of the Lamp... but please, let's not talk about it here .*changes subject* I didn't know E.W.'s first name was Elizabeth... Does anyone know what the next Cildren Of The Lamp book is called? I saw the 3rd one at a bookstore, but I'm not sure whether it's the kind of thing you'd have to read in order.

I just noticed something.

The Akhenaten Adventure

The Blue Djinn of Babylon

The Cobra King of Kathmandu

The Day of the Djinn Warriors

It's alphabetical! And I prefer COTL to Eragon.

*grins* I'm so honoured to be regarded as one of BaB's resident book attackers. ;) Thanks, Reuben. ;)

I can name dozens of books that I prefer to the Inheritance Circle, myself.

About the alphabetical order titles- I did not notice that... how interesting.
