fyi...i have read all five books, listened to them on cds (audiobooks), and have seen the two movies. i also assisted the library in putting on a Hogwarts party when the fifth book came out, and my two wee-est siblings went to it. So if i'm an immature freak, sue me!  but i read loads of stuff for all ages and frames of mind, so this is just another set of books to me...and btw, if you're turning up your nose at them before reading them, then i have to say, that's being stupid...forget what other people would think, any book is enjoyable when it's well written, and these are. I should know, i've read hundreds of thousands of books in my life, i own about 2000 books both fiction and non fiction, and i'm nearly finished with my first novel. So there! lol

Read the thread title "Harry Pothead and the philosiphers stoned", not sure if he is referring to a spoof or if he just doesn't like Harry Potter!
Nick, can you enlighten us? Do you not like Harry Potter?

no I heard it off a friend,
Once upon a time Harry Potter was wizzing a round on his......stick or whatever it is, and then a strange blackman with long, platted hair came walking up to him, he said to harry "ive got a guest for you" harry said "um who are you?", "I am....ur.......never mind about that", "so what quest do you want me to do?", "I need you to take this pure Jamacan black along with my friend Towly to the philosiphers", "um okay", Towly suddunly came to life saying "im so high right now, I dont know whats goin on"...
...To be continued

Thanks for the interest! it's about 2 siblings and their cousin...they wake up one night because of a sudden suicide in the family and everything's changed for them...people they love are dying and they don't know why, and they're on the run in search of a place of sanctuary...being chased by something or someone who either wants to destroy them or use them for some vile purpose....
that ambiguous enough??? lol
Void! let's hear about yours!

actually, there's two of them, but im only working on one at the time (this is kinda long): it takes place on a completely different planet...on this planet there's a desert where one mine worker, Jura, finds a box. inside is a paper with one word on it: RADERA. this is the name of an ancient city that held a very evil power. the mages of the city tried to seal the power away, but failed and no one knows what happened. except for one person. Jura is able to unlock the secret of the map and find the city, where he finds out what happened to the people. they were all mutated by the power of the city, except for one person, named Riva. she returns with Jura to civilization, where they find out that someone else is headed to Radera, a man named Saren. he is the 'heir' to the power of the city and isnt planning to use it for good. there are a bunch of battles fought over the city between the mutants, the good guys, and the bad guys...but im going to leave it at that to save the ending for later
