If you don't think they do, then no. I absolutely cannot "have social contact" with someone like you. @raphaelmorgan @stux

Does she plan to teach a new generation of kids that only a 'man' and a 'woman' can have a child that they recklessly leave-behind while fighting the specters of their own creation, to be raised by child-slavers and sneaky serpents, who are the only ones that child can trust? And that kid's name is definitely not Jesus?

I admit, I quit watching after the werewolf one and never read them. Did I get it wrong?

i am confused,

can you explain?

They could just have said "predicting the future doesn't work, suck it up". Unfortunately fantasy on magic is rarely courageous enough to handle the "prophesy of the one who will be our salvation" properly (ie. this way).

the whole
"...and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives."

(had to google the words)

Was kinda intresting to me.

but the cop out of the deathly hallows, and then the goddamn expeliarmus deflect bullshit, so they could go "no no...HArry never killed him, voldemort kinda killed himself"

*I've actually discovered that trying to take away human rights from entire groups of people is a pretty easy line to draw and still find plenty of friends, especially when those groups are >half the planet. I associate with people who disagree with me on all sorts of things--whether certain people deserve the right to exist doesn't have to be on the list

Gotta start somewhere

Might as well cast the forbidden ones too, since that's what Rowling is doing to trans people anyway. Commit to the bit, y'know?

I always kinda identtified with Candy

not sure why

It might remain a mysterie forever

If I would solemnly swear to just have social contact with people I totally agree with I would be the loneliest person in the world.

The series follows a girl named Candy Quackenbush as she navigates this world, battling darkness and discovering her connection to it, all brought to life with Barker's own surreal illustrations.

The Books of Abarat is a young adult fantasy series by Clive Barker, set in a magical archipelago of 25 islands, each representing an hour of the day, with a planned five books, of which three have been published: Abarat (2002), Days of Magic, Nights of War (2004), and Absolute Midnight (2011).

(Also lost hope on a new Abarat book)

"There is no magic strong enough to raise the dead...oh wait there is, we just lied. Lied so the only intresting (to me) part is negated and leads to dull by the books resolution.

"A live-action adaptation is currently in the works, scheduled to be directed by Jennifer Kent."
