#45284 When Hobbes takes over the World
Has anyone read Elantris? I know Hobbes has! (Great book by the way.)

I hadn't read it recently enough to notice the connection, but now that you mention it I think I see it. I'll have to read it again after I finish the book I'm on and after I read Prince Caspian again, so I can know just how much the writers took artistic liberty in writing te script. But I'm definitely going to read it again, seeing as I haven't read it for a year. (That's a long time for me to not read a book the second time. After that, I'll probably read it every year and a half or two years.)

Great book, of course. That book will always make me think of "The Deed of Paksenarrion" by Elizabeth Moon, because they were recommended to me by the same person. They have a lot of similarities, i.e. the religions that are prevalent and major parts of the book, but I still think it was a little better than Elantris. However, it is DEFINITELY darker than Elantris, so if you don't like that then don't read it, but if you don't mind it, I highly recommend it.
I don't know how coherent that all was, but I think all that I wanted to say was there.

You could just give it to my dad, or, I will be in a certain place on campus for a certain length of time tomorrow. (I will be today, too, but not anywhere that I could get a book.)Fredjikrang wrote:Sure thing. Should I just give it to your dad, or are you on campus sometime and could meet up?
The Epistler was quite honestly knocked on her ethereal behind by the sheer logic of this.
