    The Young Wizards books

    Anyone read the Young Wizards books by Diane Duane? I would like to talk about these book and have people understand what on earth I mean.
    If you have related images, feel free to post them!!

    Spoiler:
    Before you met me I was a fairy princess
    I caught frogs and called them prince
    And made myself a queen
    Before you knew me I traveled 'round the world
    I slept in castles and fell in love
    Because I was taught to dream

    I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
    To capture tinkerbell
    They were just fireflies to the untrained eye
    But I could always tell

    I believe in fairytales and dreamers dreams like bed sheet sails
    And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles
    And anything I can to get by
    And fireflies...

            I like the books. Just finished Wizards at War and now I'm thinking I should go back and refamiliarize myself with the earlier novels. Plus the feline wizardry books with Rhiow.

            Can't wait for Wizards on Mars. Gonna have to brush up on my knowledge of the red planet, too, apparently.

              AFriend is going to lend me Wizards at War, and I have yet to locate any coies of the feline books, although they sound good.

                    Is this the same Diane Duane who wrote "Where No One Has Gone Before" from ST: TNG?


                    Edit: Yes it is.

                      Didn't know the series was still running! Had the first two books as school library books at one point.

                        you didn't know? wow, I've been following it lately, and there's romurs of a movie or tv show.

                          That'd be interesting, depending on how they play it. I hope they manage to work in some of the offworld wizards. And Rhiow. And S'reee. All told, though, I think I'd rather they didn't try. The result is likely to be unpleasant, especially since Nita and Kit will both undoubtedly wind up being played by hot teeniebopper idol-types.

                              last week, since i didn't have a computer, i caught up on my reading... i'm now on Wizard's Dilima.... anyways... i was reading and when tom and carl showed up i remembered how they were in the first book and i'm kinda hoping this isn't just me, but does it seem like Tom and Carl are more than just Wizardry Partners? i could just be reading more into this than i should, but quite frankly they'd make a nice slash fic couple...
                              I'm a Slasher. I slash. It's what I do.
