Recently, my girlfriend mentioned a book that she found mentioned on Ridley Pearson's site entitled "Beyond the Deepwoods"...Some people are comparing it to Harry Potter...I'm not sure who the author is, but I do know it is the first in a series entitled The Edge Chronicles (pretty cool series title, if you ask me)...Just wondering if it is worth a look...I am a huge Potter fan

Keep chasing the dragon and eventually you will catch it

Yes they are definately worth a look they are really good and if you like Harry Potter you will like this as well.

Edge chronicles-

i have read the edge chronicles and they are way better than potter. he is a sell out and has deserted his fans with that awful movie of his. Where as the edge chronicles are still good pure and plentiful. Try THE CURSE OF THE GLOAMGLOZER the prequel to the first three books CLOUD WOLF the world book day special, that reads about twigs fathers life and THE LAST OF THE SKY PIRATES set 50 years after the last of the first trilogy.

I repectfully disagree with you Air. The Harry potter Movies are pretty true to the books.

the edge chronicles are so cool, I can't wait until the next one is out

Posted By: siara_hith Apr 30, 2003 - 11:47 am

have you read the last of the sky pirates?

Posted By: siara_hith May 11, 2003 - 06:50 am

O.k, I know this is my third message in a row, but I just heard something really cool, apparently, in the twilight woods there is this council thingy that runs most of the edge, at the head of this council is the Queen of the twilight woods who is immortal, its just a rumor but I for one believe it

Posted By: sweetheart_to_the_written_word May 25, 2003 - 09:28 am

does anyone know when the next edge chronicle book is out/likely to be out? ive got them all - curse of the gloamglozer, cloud wolf, beyond the deepwoods, stormchaser, midnight over sanctaphrax, and last of the sky pirates, an i cant w8 for any more that might be on the way.
an about the harry potter films, they dont compare to the books, but they are pretty cool films in their own right (the acting is hilariously bad tho!) and im a huuuuuuuge fan of the books.
other series fans of these should check out are phillip pullmans 'HIS DARK MATERIALS' trilogy (consisting of 'NORTHERN LIGHTS', 'THE SUBTLE KNIFE' and 'THE AMBER SPYGLASS'), his other series, consisting of 'THE RUBY IN THE SMOKE', 'THE SHADOW IN THE NORTH' 'THE TIGER IN TEH WELL' and 'THE TIN PRINCESS' as well as the singular novels 'THE BUTERFLY TATTOO' and 'THE BROKEN BRIDGE', also by pp.
checkout 'DEATHSCENT' the first in the 'INTRIGUES OF THE REFLECTED REALM,' by robin jarvis, eoin colfer's series of artemis fowl: 'ARTEMIS FOWL (a.f.), 'a.f.: THE ARCTIC INCIDENT' and 'a.f. THE ETERNITY CODE', as well as terry pratchet's discword series.
Tolkein's 'THE HOBBIT' and 'THE LORD OF THE RINGS' are a must, as are the parodies (p*ss-takes) or lord of the rings and harry potter entitled 'BORED OF THE RINGS' and 'BARRY POTTER AND THE SHAMELESS PARODY'.
apologies for this being such a long entry, but i couldnt mention one book without mentioning the others,

I dunno when the next book is out, I hope its soon though. I can't survive on Just re-reading the first 6 books. I don't know what the 7th book is going to be called but I heard a rumour that the 8th is going to be called 'the downfall of the Night'.

Posted By: siara_hith Aug 05, 2003 - 04:01 am

the next book is out on the 4th of september.

I didn't find the Edge Chronicles to be anything like harry potter.

Posted By: Inuyasha67 Aug 02, 2004 - 08:27 am

I didn't post that at 8:25 am! What's up?!

Posted By: Inuyasha67 Aug 02, 2004 - 08:29 am

I'm 100% sure I posted at 12:25 pm

Posted By: Bmat Aug 02, 2004 - 11:04 am

It's an hour before US Pacific time. So if you are Eastern time, and the time stamp says 8:25 am, it means you posted it at your 12:25 pm.
