joshkke: Thanks. If you look at it critically though, Harry Potter is in the same fantasy genre as the Chronicles of TC which you liked. The message in HP is overwhelmingly a battle of good against evil and the value of having friends who are there for each other through thick and thin. The "witchery" was just a unique commercial angle and I can tell you that nobody feels sympathetic to witchcraft after reading that book. By the way, first time I read HP, I spent over 24 hours continuously eating up the over 1800-pages volumes without food. No other book could have made me do that. Yeah Dean Koontz is a bit dark but what will you then say about Stephen King lol. Truly I got a bit tired of Koontz novels after a while but By the light of the moon is quite different from Koontz's regular horror vibe. It is an actual thriller and was completely hooked all through. I haven't read the COTC series. I have only come across its reference several times just as J.R Tolkien's lord of the rings. If you like epic adventure and enlightening scripts, please read Shogun. It's voluminous but worth the read as an all time classic. 1 Like |

I absolutely love Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky. I first read it when I was 17 and wrote a paper on it for one of my classes in the 12th grade. I became a huge fan of Dostoyevsky and have also read The Brothers Karamazov and The Idiot. This man was a phenomenal writer! Russian writers are geniuses, which's why I also enjoyed reading Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace, and Anna Karenina. Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes is also dope! And oh yeah, I have read a ton of Shakespeare's plays! If I start listing all the books I've read, I'll be here all day. I've a bit of down time now and have been meaning to go to the bookstore to get a couple of novels. I'll certainly do that sometime this week! 2 Likes |
