My mother owns The Oath and may have The Visitation but of that I am unsure. I will ask her... if I remember. :-)
The lawsuit: Somehow that does not surprise me (that it was kept silent). However... I must say I am pleased to hear that they went after them. I read a portion of the adult books and got completely bored. So I went and read all the children's books. :-) I was probably 10 or 12 at the time so the adult books were to old for me.
When I think back... I realize that I did a lot of reading while 10-14. My sister is currently going through the exact same emotional stages I went through. Devouring books as fast as we can hand them to her.
I gave her 4 chapter books (perhaps 100pgs each?) (diary form) for Christmas. She had read them all once by the end of Dec. and then proceeded to take them to my blind grandma to read aloud to her. So she essentially read them all twice before Jan. ended. :-P I then gave her access to all the books I keep in my room. Which frankly all but 2 shelves are entirely children's books for her age era.
What I plan on doing is hanging onto those books and giving them to my children. It's sentimental value really... but they do no one any good if they are sitting on my shelves collecting dust. :-)
