I found the first four books really good. Garth Nix had made an unusual universe with awesome characters and a creative plot which left the reader hanging for more. Then I felt the last two books were a bit of a let down. They weren't as exciting as the ones before, and the introduced characters weren't nearly as good as the ones in earlier books. Spoiler warning: At the end of Lord Sunday, it felt a bit like: I can't resolve all these plot holes, let's blow up the universe. But I still think that Keys to the Kingdom is a series worth reading.

How about Utopia? (This may not be relevant, but a few members have changed their screen names from what there were best known as.)

Woah I think that it's not a coincidence. The store owners must have seen TMM. If it is a coincidence, that's uncanny.

We need more Chaotic Creativity writers! Agreed. Seriously, CCreativity used to be a really big section with the 667er and 667 fics, but now, hardly anyone posts in it. I guess writing takes time, but compared to FFiction, CCreativity is dead. But it's still going, which is good.^^

I imagine Hermes out of a suit. I don't even want to think about what you mean by that. It doesn't have to be THAT. What's with everybody discussing Hermes? Anyway, I picture Hermes as a younger, lighter haired, less severe version of Dante.

You're welcome. I've read one story in FFiction, (Forbidden,) but I haven't gotten around to reading the other one. Keep up the good job. ^^

Thanks for your help, Sherry Ann! It's a relief to know that no one's beating anyone. Dark Avenue is a really friendly forum. (Thank goodness they don't practise really cool member-bashing anymore.) Edit: I've just noticed that my last few posts have all started with "thanks". =)

I've just read all the chapters of your story, Sophie, and I've got to say it's great. I reckon the way the characters have grown from ASOUE is pretty realistic, (but I've got to say, I'm turning fourteen and I've never had a boyfriend.) Even though Violet and Klaus are being paranoid, I guess they have a reason, with Olaf affecting their lives so dramatically. Another update, please? ^^

Pomegranate. Takes a while to eat because of all the seeds but it's good for thinking.

Brunch, those earrings that you made look really cool. I would love a pair but I haven't pierced my ears. =D Do you imagine Esme wearing any of them?

This isn't really helpful, but you can get around that by using Mozilla Firefox as it stops websites redirecting to another page.

Thanks again. I've got yet another question - is bumping threads (with a reason, of course) acceptable outside of BBooks? I've seen Dante say that bumping threads is okay as long as you have interesting content, how about the other mods? (Sorry for firing questions off at you guys.)
