Gunnerkrigg Court, Vol. 1: Orientation Review

Gunnerkrigg Court, Vol. 1: Orientation
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Gunnerkrigg court is, in a word, AWESOME. It is hilarious. At times, it seems to be parody-esque. At others, it seems to be very serious. The main character, Antimony (Annie), is a clever, reserved girl who has just become a student at the truly spectacular Gunnerkrigg court. It is a tale of all the truly bizarre things she encounters there--shadow creatures, robots, minotaurs, ghosts, dragon-slaying teachers, visual reality rooms... The art is original and gorgeous, and I can't wait for the second book to be finished-- I want to know what happens next in Annie's life!

I get this calendar every year, and it's a great one for fans of the Harry Potter movies. The chosen pictures are quite diverse and don't only feature The Trio--the more minor characters get their pages too.

I bought this leather bound collector's edition of Chamber of Secrets for my brother. It came in pristine condition even though it is used. He loved it! I also bought the Sorcerer's Stone, which also came in perfect condition. They are well worth the money. I'd like to find the other 5 books eventually, but I could only find books 1 & 2.

I thought I had ordered the American version of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, but received the British version. Since this was a replacement for a well loved copy, it was fun to read the book in it's original format. The copy I received was in new condition, and arrived promptly. Thanks!

The Hidden Myths in Harry Potter: Spellbinding Map and Book of Secrets Review

The Hidden Myths in Harry Potter: Spellbinding Map and Book of Secrets
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Unfortunately, some people seem to have mistaken this item, which is a large map that comes with a very short booklet of explanations, for my full book on the subject, "The Magical Worlds of Harry Potter." The map, which was drawn by Virginia Allyn, is great. (She gets all five stars in the rating I gave it.) It's interesting and it's very funny. There's a lot of Rowling-like humor in Virginia's drawings. But obviously a map isn't going to have the same amount of information as a 40,000-word book. It's a fun poster that also happens to have substance, and it's meant for either very young fans or for those older fans who already know the background of myths and legends in Potter but want to see it all as a picture.

Hidden in the Harry Potter stories are references to mythical creatures, legendary characters, real history and J.K. Rowling's own life. This magnificent poster-sized map takes you on a worldwide treasure hunt to uncover those hidden clues. The accompanying book of secrets reveals even more incredible facts behind the magical places and people you will come across on your journey. Recommended for sorcerers of all ages.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) Review

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Unlike the first two potter films released in "Ultimate Edition" form, the second two versions do not include their extended editions. This might not be a legitimate complaint if these versions of the films didn't already exist. In the US, they are aired quite regularly on ABC Family, and are quite good.
These extended editions of the film make the price point of the first two versions palatable, but their absence makes you wonder what exactly you're paying for with both this and the ultimate edition of PoA.
