"There are not many writers who have [J.K. Rowling's] Dickensian ability to make us turn the pages,
to weep – openly, with tears splashing – and a few pages later to laugh, at invariably good jokes
. . . We have lived through a decade in which we have followed the publication of the liveliest,
funniest, scariest and most moving children’s stories ever written."
— British literary critic A.N. Wilson, in The London Times
Ms. J.K. Rowling is to be commended for creating a fantastic fictional world that has so far brought two generations – mostly preteen boys – to the world of book reading. Whether that singular accomplishment is worth a gigantic fortune – more wealth than the Queen of England, In any case, we have the seven books and the eight movies (and so far three theme parks, f'heaven's sake!) which are coded on this page, because both stories – the creation of the novels and the content of the novels – are quite an adventure, and if you haven't yet experienced Harry Potter's world — G.E. Nordell, proprietor of the Magic Lantern Video & Book Store [est. 2001] |
