i doubt it... those "it was all a terrible dream" endings are the worst let down...they wouldn't do that...

that can get away with it in alice in wonderland books cos there are only 2(or 3 if you count adairs sequal) but it would be so dissapointing to happen at the end of a big series of 7 books...

Ah, but perhaps our whole life is a dream... or perhaps we are living in Plato's Allegory of the Cave, where we know nothing of true existance, merely what we sense...

I'm lost, Plato's Allegory of the Cave? That title doesn't make since.

Thanks swans! Saves me time in explaining it... Yes, my history teacher really emhasized that theory... sometimes he'd get confused between the truth and the theory, though... ... he told the class of a "theory" that all parents want boys instead of girls, no matter what they say... ... my parents decided to go in for a parent-teacher conference

Thanks swans, it differant, I see where the name comes it right? But I never did like Plato, all his Atlantis crap. Never believed any of that, though there could have once been an island in the middle of the Atlantic, but whatever.
