<blockquote>Quote: <br> <br>Abarat by Clive Barker is really good. The first two books in the series have been released so far. <br> <p>Yeah, but they're really only in the same class as Harry Potter... Juvenile Fiction. You can defenitely tell what the demographic for the book is.</blockquote> <p>I don't know. By the end of Abarat: Days of Magic Nights of War the story takes a darker and more mature turn.

Even so, it's still not in the same class as the adult fiction. The storytelling and the themes dealt with within the book aren't particularly adult themes... they're more of issues that teenagers deal with.

Does anybody like Stephen King's Dark Tower series? I do.

I think Stephen King uses his supervillan Flagg a bit too much...

<blockquote>I think Stephen King uses his supervillan Flagg a bit too much... </blockquote><p>Flagg is completely neccessary. The Dark Tower series ties all of Stephen King's works together into one massive story. Flagg is one of the primary villains of this story. The Crimson King is really the main supervillian, though.

I just got Half Blood Prince. I'm going to read the series over again before I start reading it. The 3rd book isn't very fresh in my memory and I never finished Goblet of Fire. I never even started Order of the Phoenix.

Stephen King is ok, though it isn't my favourite genre of books, but his writing skills are good.

Y'know, one thing I learned from the Harry Potter series is that books are bad.<p>The "Monster" Book of Monsters<br>Riddle's Diary<br>The Potions Text<br>etc.<br> :p
