Diane Duane

[NightIntent]

It was some part where Ponch was begging for dog treats or something, Kit tells him that he'd get so big he'd look like a blimp, and Ponch replies, "But I'd be a happy blimp."

XD i remember that part. that part made me life. there is nothing better that a dog that is a happy blimp.  

[NightIntent]

Yes, that was my favorite part in that entire book. Possibly in all the books I've read past 3. I laughed so hard when I read that line.

YAY I REMEMBER NOW!! xd
PONCH= heart
he is probably the bets character...although i like nita and kit as well  

[NightIntent]

I liked Nita better when she had an affinity for living things. Really, how do you go from living things to stars? Kit starts to annoy me around the same time Nita does. (No character ever escapes me being annoyed with them. n.n") Ponch is my favorite character, period, in A Wizard Alone. I don't like any of the other characters in that book. I can't say if he remains my favorite after that; I still haven't read A Wizard's Holiday.

After a while i na series I think that Diane Duane started to run out of ideas and so she started to throw some things together to make it seem to fit.

I've read up to number five or six can't remember her books are really good my favorite character is Nita she's pretty awesome. There have also been points in the book that confused me especially in the fourth one when they started talking about the history of Ireland and how all the powerfull ones are so attached to it. I really started to lose track of what they were saying but the rest of the book was pretty interesting. Though the first one in my opionion the best it had more action in it and the other ones had too much talking and dialoge in them with too many personal problems. Though overall the series is good.

Duana
Wizard series, is pretty good, haven't finished it, but the library didn't have it. Though she has written other books as well that both have you wonder "huh" and "this is neat" She must be a pretty good writer if I can get through a book of hers and still come out the end not knowing whats really going on until two days later.

I love her! Out of all the authors that describe magic, I find hers the most believable. And the way that she explains the vistas of nature and space? She's just...wow! I've gotta be truthful, though, in her Young Wizards series I disliked books 3, 5, and 6. I loved 1, 2, and 7. I thought 4 and 8 were okay. If Nita and Kit don't get toether soon I'm going to have to punch something!

Everyone knows of Young Wizards, but what about Tale of the Five? I think there was supposed to be 5 books, but I doubt she'll ever finish it. Only 2 are out now. I hated the 2cd, but the first was wonderful. Duane created a religion for the book's world and described it impeccably. Not to be shallow, but the main character is incredibly sexy. wink There's a scene towards the end book 1 when he has an out-of-body experience and when he looks down at his body and describes himself...Dear God, I can honestly say that was the only time I've ever drooled on a book!

I have all 8 books but only read 6 of them so far, but it's been a while since I've been caught up in other series lol I also have an X-Men book, "Empire's End" by her which was pretty good. Also have some Young Net Force books by her as well. Overall a good author. The 9th book will come out later in 2008.  

[NightIntent]

There's gonna be nine Young Wizards books? I think I stopped at six. Maybe seven. I can't even remember.

I LOVE the Young Wizards books!!! I am waiting impatiently for a Wizard on Mars to come out... I have gotten two people into her books so far. I kinda like the somewhat randomness of the books at times, it makes me think about it before I can fully understand it.

I want to read her Middle Kingdom books also known as The Tale of Five.
