The one from Terminus, or the one from Sirius?
Oh, and a copy of the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook would be nice. And I thought the real thing had information on everything!
It’d also be nice to read the Book of Granmyre, from The Dark is Rising. Just read it, and poof, you can do magic, no fuss or effort needed.
Not crazy. I have a copy on my bookshelf also. Of course it was written by Phillip Jose Farmer. 
Nope, you’re the second. Saltire was the first. 
The two are not mutually exclusive, you know. 
Chinese Kung-fu movies always feature some sort of Kung-fu manual which teach the reader insane martial arts in a very short amount of time. I wouldn’t mind reading one of thes and learning how to leap effortlessly across rooftops and tree branches.
And the Necronomicon, because nothing bad could possibly come out of reading that
First and second, apparently.
The Book of Shadows, from Charmed. If it worked, of course.
The story that Lucy reads in the magician’s book in Voyage of the Dawn Treader, the one that is the nicest story she ever read, but when she is finished she can’t remember it, nor can she turn the pages back.
I’m sure that’s supposed to be a symbol for some religious experience, but I’m thinking of it in a more literal way, like “Man, that was a GOOD story!”
Me too. (On my bookself and crazy). But if you notice, it sucks. Maybe more pictures of wide open beavers would have improved it.
I just want a few hours in the library from Gamian’s Dream. (I have a number of book there.)
Most of the good ones have been taken, so I’ll help myself to Dream’s library, if nobody minds.
I’ll tote along a copy of The Monster Book of Monsters, The Joye of Snackes, Neil Nosepicker’s Book of 50,000 Insults, and Hamster Huey and the Gooey Kablooie.
That was my first thought. It seemed to contain a **lot ** of useful information.
Perhaps also *Mad Trist * by Sir Launcelot Canning, as mentioned in The Fall of the House of Usher.
Here you go! It must be a bad translation, it only drove me half-mad, and summoned a demon from Heck.
All these other Harry Potter books are great, but I’d like to read the simply titled Magical Theory- I want to know why all this works!
Oh, and The Princess Bride. You know, the uncut one. Not so much to read, but more just to have around, and read little tiny bits from.
Or it’s sequel, Buttercup’s Baby, though it may actually be real I suppose.
I’d love to read the Heterodyne Brothers and Trelawny Thorpe, Spark of the Realm novels from Girl Genius…
Billy and the Cloneasaurus.
Now that it’s past the year 2000, I think the Tome of Eternal Darkness should be safe enough to pick up and read.
I’d also like to read Al Gore’s wildly popular Harry Potter and the Balance of Earth.
Hamster Huey and the Gooey Kablooie (did I spell that right?)
The Primer from The Diamond Age, and Ender’s desk.
Oh, Brother, Where Art Thou?–the incipient movie project from Sullivan’s Travels.
Oh, wait, I already have.
