Where do you live? Like, Wyoming? Or someplace else in the middle of nowhere? There has got to be more than two libraries in your entire state!

Haven't read the voyage of slaves yet, the library doesn't have it so...
The first two books were good though, although I must say I like Redwall better.
Yeah Redwall is better
Never trust a smiling pirate.  :D

I can do that because I'm awesome.

Wylder...I live near Uluru. I hope you know where that is.
I am a squirrel, an otter, a mouse, a fox, a stoat, a ferret, a weasel, a wildcat, a hare, a hedgehog, a badger; I am the master of disguises, The Mask.

Yep,  8)
See those glasses? They're because Uluru is pretty boring. LOGIC!

Just started reading the angels command. GREAT BOOK!
I want the world of Tolkien,
The message of Lewis;
The adventure of Jacques,
And the heart of Milne.
But I want the originality of me.

I loved all three of the books, and each for different reasons, but my favourite remains the first.  There were so many changes in the world from 1623 to 1896 that were reflected in the book, and the changes in Ben and Ned, particularly in their confidence, skills, and knowledge, were astounding.  The end was bittersweet, and the two and a half centuries in between the two time periods leaves so many openings for events they may have seen and adventures they may have had.

The end to the first book almost made me cry. It did not though, just almost.

*Sigh* Istillhave a tear stain on the last few pages of my copy.
