I told my kid sister I'd read Potter if she'd read Lord of the Rings.
I'm actually kind of glad I made the deal, the books are far better than I expected. One thing I have noticed is that the "level" the books are written at seems to increase with each subsequent book, sort of the way each book is a year at Hogwart's.

The Greek disdain for archery was best expressed at Thermopylae (480BC) by Dieneces the Spartan - when he was told that the Persian arrows flew so thick that they blocked out the sun, he replied, "So much the better, then we will fight in the shade."
It was a great book, and the movie really is very accurate in its depictions. I'll be reading the others when I get my hands on them--Costco here I come!

Both movies have been very accurate.
Try your local used book store - most will carry many copies of it.

Had? It's still here, last I checked.

That store is great, there are at least two in Tucson, and the one in Mesa at Country Club and Southern. They've been talking for years and years of opening one in Central Phoenix too. Great stores, especially with their books, dvds, and video game selection. They always give you a good deal on trade you bring to them.

There's 2 in Tucson? I only remember the one north of the University across from the Medical Center (I used to almost live at that place).
