Great quiz: Which Fantasy Writer are You?

[hymnia]

I swiped this from blpurdom, and I think it's one of the most interesting quizzes I've done in a while. (It is a bit long, though.) My result:

Your result for Which fantasy writer are you?...

Susan Cooper (b. 1935)

3 High-Brow, -29 Violent, -25 Experimental and -13 Cynical!

Oh, do - I think you'll enjoy them! There some fun Harry Potter parallels, but the series is even more fundamentally British, I think.

I think you'd like them. I read them to my daughter years ago (or, to be more correct, I started reading the series to her, but by the time we finished, we were reading them together. *^^*) I believe we read The Dark Is Rising first, and then we realized that there were more books in the series, we went back and read Over Sea, Under Stone, which I feel is the weakest in the series. If I had read that one first, I might have been tempted not to continue, so just be aware of that.

I actually was thinking of re-reading them this summer, since it's been quite awhile.

I enjoyed them. I agree that The Dark is Rising should really be read first. You don't miss out on anything, and it's more captivating. It's been a long time since I read them, but I still have the poems/prophycies memorized, actually!

I love me some Susan Cooper! The Dark is Rising sequence is amaaaazing.

I got Mary Gentle in that quiz, who I've never even heard of, but I guess I should seek her out. XD

Also, YOU HAVE A TORI AMOS MOOD THEME, AND FOR THAT I LOVE YOU.

:D So you're a Tori fan, too? Are you going to see her when she plays at the Bob Carr in July?

Yep! Josh and I are crazy Tori fans, and we'll be at the concert, for sure. :)
