My son has the whole series, I'll have to borrow them. He also keeps telling me about a series called The Inheritance Trilogy. The first book is called Eragon. I may have to read those as well...Swordlady said:I refused to read Harry Potter when the books first came out, because I thought they were "just for kids". But I picked up "Sorceror's Stone" while babysitting out of curiousity - and instantly got hooked. This was around the time the first movie was released in fall 2001. I promptly picked up the rest of the books, and read through all of them within a month. Despite the lengthiness of the books (OoTP topped off at 900+ pages), it is fairly easy reading, and the stories flow very well. Oh yeah, I read through OoTP within three days, and HBP within two - just to give you a frame of reference.
