So You Want to Be a Wizard (Young Wizards (Paperback))

by Diane Duane

Ages 10 & up.

Fantasy and Sci-fi Fanatics 1028 books / 1181 members / 1217 posts I am personally addicted to fantasy and sci-fi and I created this group for people to discuss Fantasy and Sci-fi books that they have read.

I have found myself, more often than not, searching for a really good fantasy or sci-fi book, but to no avail. Starting a group not only enables me, and you, to find great books, but it also is a great way to discuss likes and dislikes about these books.


Just a warning, I will also put realistic-fiction books on the group shelf if I feel that they are as good as a fantasy or sci-fi book. MEOW!!!!!


***NOTICE***
If you are a member, or just a random person, please put any sci-fi or fantasy book that you *LOVE* on the group shelf, please!

Another thing, plez post discussions or reply to one, i'd love to hear your opinions.

We can talk about why we love first movie, not to mention Virginia, Wolf, Tony and the rest of our friend from the 9 kingdoms. We can also talk about news we've herd about the second. And of course books!! Fantasy and fairy tale re-makes (and many other genres) the sky's the limit.

"I often think, why did I let her in? Didn't I know she was bad? And I did, of course I did, but I also knew that I couldn't keep that door shut all my life, just because it was dangerous, just because there was a chance of getting hurt. My husband was a good man, but he did not rescue me. I rescued myself." - Snow White
