This is rather long, so I'm going to put it behind a cut if I can. I'm practising! My responses are after the cut (I hope):




How much of a fantasy geek are YOU?
Harry Potter
Name 6 Slytherins who are students during Harry's time at Hogwarts.:Draco Malfoy, Vincent Crabbe, Gregory Goyle, Pansy Parkinson, Millicent Bulstrode, Theo Nott
Give the names of four portraits on the walls of Dumbledore's office.:Well - I can name two. Phineas Nigellus, and Everard (no last name given)
Name as many Death Eaters as you can.:Lucius Malfoy, Bellatrix Lestrange, Rodolphus and Rabastan Lestrange, Crabbe, Goyle, Avery and Nott
Without looking, quote your favorite passage from the books.:"Hermione, you're a girl." "Oh, well spotted!"
Lord of the Rings
Did you read the Silmarillion?:Partly
Give me a Sindarin phrase.:Well - I don't know the difference between Sindarin and Quenya, so I'm guessing! "O Elbereth Gilthoniel, Silivren penna miriel!"
Tell me, without looking, the first and last sentences of TTT book.:Can't do exact sentences. It begins, Aragorn ran up the hill, and ends (after Sam runs into the doorwary,) "he knew no more" . Or words to that effect.
What book club was JRRT a part of?:The Inklings
What does JRR stand for?:John Ronald Reuel
Have you read...
Enchanted Forest Chronicles?:No
Star Wars books?:One or two - wouldn't read more. I lost interest in Star Wars after "Phantom Menace", and anyway, Star Wars is meant to be seen, not read. It's not literature.
Star TREK books?:A few. They were mostly mediocre. See above. (the best - at least, most enjoyable "Star Trek " book I ever read was "How Much for Just the Planet, by John Ford, a joke!
The Keys to the Kingdom books?:No
Tithe, or anything by Holly Black?:No
Wizard of Earthsea?:Yes, several times.
WICKED?:No.
Neverwhere or Coraline, both by Neil Gaiman?:Coraline. Good, but "Alice in Wonderland", which it resembles, is better.
Ella Enchanted?:Yes.
The Wheel of Time books?:No - don't like imitation Tolkien
The Vlad Taltos books?:No - don't like vampires
His Dark Materials trilogy?:Yes - it started well, but got more annoying as it went on.
Jumper, or any of its sequels?:No. I tried, but found I wasn't that interested.
REM World?:No
Young Wizards series?:Yes, with pleasure.
Abhorsen series?:No
Animorphs?:I read one for review (I''m a librarian)
Everworld?:No
Charlie Bone?:Yes, the first one. It was okay.
Artemis Fowl?:Read the first three for book groups - see "Animorphs"
A Wrinkle in Time?:Yes, several times - I LOVE this book.
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe?:Yes, several times - I love this series!
Hawksong, or other Amelia Atwater-Rhodes books?:No
The Neverending Story?:No
Finally, and possibly most important...THE DARK TOWER??:No - not a Stephen King fan, at all.
