OK, why has...
OK, why has nobody said anything aout the amazing book called Pendragon?!?!? I have read all of the ones that have come out so far, and i think Bobby is so cool; if he were real, I would grab him and he could be my bestest friend. OK, not really; he's 18 in the latest book! ANYBODY READ PENDRAGON!?

YESSS!!! I love this series!!! Omigosh, I can't believe nobody else has commented on it... AAH! Raven Rise!!! The ending... *passes out* *revives to rant some more* That was the most amazing ending ever! Wow.
Heh, my favorite character is definately Spader. I luvz that guy, he's so cool and funny and he loves life as much as I do. And Loor kicks serious booty. And Kasha's cool too, partly because she has my name! (My real name's not Commander Kip, obviously.) And I love it how she comes around to the cause near the end of Black Water... ooh, the end of Black Water was sooo saaaaad... but the end of Raven Rise made up for it, no?
Hey, what do you think about Courtney? I know a lot of people who don't like her, but I think she's okay. And I definately like Mark. He's just so nerdy, it makes me laugh. Sophia, that's so cool that you are in Ireland! I'm trying to learn Gaelic, but the pronunciation's killing me. *dies*

Yeah, about Mark, I had no idea you could ACTUALLY turn your skin orange! Or whatever. I liked Spader before he got all serious and revengeful, which is only about what, half a book?! My personal favorites are the first, second, quillan games, rivers of zadaa the veelox one, black water, and raven rise. For the second, i just like the description...and all the cool toys! (Race ya' on a skimmer!) Loor is my fave! That's why I like the first and rivers of zadaa so much! Courtney's cool...it's really scary when she goes all therapy-ish and moody, then gets hit by Saint Dane in a car, and then YIPPE, COOL COURTNEY RETURNS! (in her famous pink bikini!)
Ahem, you dislike the pronounciation of Gaelic? Try English with an Irish accent...that's hard to pronounce!

OK, I am so glad I've finally found a place to express my true feelings for Pendragon (I LOVE IT). My favorite characters are Courtney and Loor; they are so cool. The only things I don't like about them is that they aren't in the books enough.
My favorite scene in the entire series was on first earth, when they're all on the cruise ship and Courtney almost shoots Mark, and she's crying, I just think that it is the most, well, romantical and beautiful scene ever.

It somewhat reminded me of Titanic... in an offhand kind of way. I do like it though, how they found his body washed up on shore. "It's me who shoots you, Mark." *sniff, sniff* so touching. I like in the reality bug, how they have to kind of do that ice skating game/competition thing! I love that kind of stuff. Ravinia is freaky... really freaky. Holocaust the second, that's what it is. But Loor is amazing, and my favorite territories are Zadaa, Denduron, Third Earth, and Cloral. Of course, I like all the other territories too. And Quillan is pretty cool, too. All competitive, but the games are cool, although they are fighting for their life.
(November 10, 2008 - 8:05 pm)
How can anyone like Quillian???? It's terrible!!! Oh, and who is Ravinia again...? I read the the books like two years ago... My favorite territory is definetly Cloral.

Spader is my fav character. He is ssssssssssooooooooo cool !!!! He loves fun just as much as me and just lives life to it`s fullest!! The only thing I don`t like about him is when he gets all sad and revengey.
Loor kicks serious butt. Alder is so Great. Aja is really brainy. Siry rocks. And there is just one word to discribe Bobby;awesome.

I read the first chapter of the first Pendragon book and threw it back in the library bag. I didn't like it at all.
(November 9, 2008 - 3:58 pm)
I have just started the first book (The Merchant of Death). It's real cool except for the kissing is gross!.
(November 18, 2008 - 8:22 pm)
Yeah, I love the Pendragon series!!!!!!! I particularly liked the latest book Raven Rise... DJ MacHale better hurry up! He leaves us at a cliffhangar! Arghh!!!!!!!!!
(November 26, 2008 - 7:11 pm)
Yeah, I know. D.J. always ends the books on cliffhangers! When I finished Raven Rise, I was, like, "OMG aaargh! Stupid ending!" Still, there's a set release date for Book 10, May 12. *checks Pendragon website* Yeah, that's right. Plus there's three related books that are about the travelers and what happened before the turning point of Denduron. The first comes in January, the second in February, and the third in March. So next year there'll be Pendragon installements every month. Yay!
(November 29, 2008 - 9:10 pm)
Pendragon so totally rocks!!! I simply LOVED them!!! I do agree that the first chapter is hard to get through, but it's so worth it!!! My favorite character is probably Spader, but I really like Loor. For some strange reason, though, I was under the impression that Raven Rise was the last book!!! Does anyone know what the next one is called?
(November 30, 2008 - 8:22 pm)
Did I kill this thead or something??? If so, sorry!!!
(December 16, 2008 - 5:09 pm)
Yeah, the next (last!!!) book will be called The Soldiers of Halla, which is like the best title ever! Gaah, I am borderline obsessed with this series! It will be so sad when it's OVER!!! Hey, for the people who have read Raven Rise, does anybody think that all the Travelers died, or what? 'Cause we know some of them did, and the ones that were still alive ended up in the random desert with the rest of them, so... what do you guys think? Oh yeah - PRESS IS BACK! YES!!! *capers about madly*
Just ignore the kissing in the first book. That's the only part that's like that. :D
Yes, English spoken with an Irish accent is hard, but at least I have SOME idea how to do it! In Gaelic, there's all these silent letters that aren't silent in English, and the 'ch' is pronounced like a cough, and all sorts of fun stuff. *makes cool face*
(January 27, 2009 - 12:42 pm)
They can`t be dead! Can they!? Then how could they go back to the real world and help everyone??? OMG this is so agravating, I need to know what happens!!!!! What happens to Mark and Courtney!!?? Are they dead!!??? How exactly do they plan to stop the Raviania!!!!???? OMG Why does D.J. Machale have to torture us like this!!!???? *sigh* I am truly obsessed with Pendragon.
