As a literary blogger, I get a lot of books to review. I just finished a young adult title by Hilari Bell called The Last Knight (the first in a series). I'm wondering if there are any Harry Potter Fans out there who may have read this book as well.
Here's the link to the review if you're interested:

Tell me what you think, even if you disagree.

I dont know I love harry potter but I dont think I can get a fix from another book just now. If I feel I need a fix I re-read the 7 books. I am not ready to move on.

I can definitely relate to you there. Whenever I finish a good book, I actually miss the characters.

I read the plot and it is very similar to the spanish classic Don Quixote. It sounds interesting but personally, i would not read a book that is very similar to a classic... i think one reason why Harry Potter is so popular is because it is a world of its own created by JK Rowling...

Interesting perspective. Although, I agree the arrent knight is a concept very similar to Don Quixote and does take place in a fantasy world dominated by the magic of the green and furred gods.
I have to concur though, there really isn't anything new under the sun. Good books are just new takes on old literary themes. The success is in the story telling.

I hate Harry Potter. As for fantasy books I did like Wizard's First Rule
