Finally! Long awaited - perhaps too long ... * SPOILER ALERT *By SashimotoI can't remember waiting so long for the next book in a series, or suffering so bad waiting for it. Waiting to get my hands on this book was akin to having a pile of burning coals heaped on my head - the burning desire was horrible, yet I could do nothing about it. The 5 1/2 year wait felt easily like 20. Luckily, DD published some really satisfying spin off books and short stories from this series, making the wait a bit more tolerable. I totally recommend the feline wizard books, ending with the coup de mmmmwhah!: The Big Meow. Okay, impatience is my middle name, and I have horrible wait issues and coping skills - enough said in that regard ...The good: We finally got resolution to a helluva cliff hanger from book 8 - where did Roshaun go, his last nanosecond hair raising rescue, and return to the fold.Nita and Dairene must have the coolest dad in existence.The not quite so good: Nita and Kit's relationship seems a bit too cautious to be real life teenagers, as they seem waaaay too uncomfortable, and insecure - much like wearing a badly fitting coat, or pair of shoes. The issue flopped back and forth, rubbing and chafing, inviting all to comment on it from their senior wizard advisors to Nita' s dad. Even a kiss was strained - like Nita and Kit were gonna throw a major cerebral hemorrhage leading up to it. I can't honestly believe they haven't found some private time to fool around even a little and explore a bit. The strain seemed way out of the realm of realism, and that sorta got old real quick.No Filif, very little Sker'ret, minimal Rhiow or her Grand Central world gate crew. Ponch doesn't even make a cameo appearance as dog's version of The One either. :(The Lone Power plays very little role in this book, and does not live up to It's usual level of interference, or nastiness. That is sorta expected in this series. It's absence was a bit of an anticlimax.Will Carmela be a latent wizard, or not? That is still open for debate ...Over all it was just a relief to get the next book, one I have perserverated on for over 5 1/2 years - much the same feeling as pulling out something wedged painfully into your teeth would provide. It wasn't as awesome as I had hoped for, but like all books in this series satisfying none the less. Sure, it would have been so much more excellent if our hero's were battling a challenging, tricky, dangerous, and lethal Lone Power as the primary plot in this book, but the story works well enough to make me happy. Even with some of the missing elements that makes these books work so well in the past, I just cannot give it anything less than 5 stars due to being such a fan-girl of this series. I just hope we don't have quite as long a wait for the next book - or I may be dead from old age, and natural causes .. or a hemorrhage ...I really, really hope DD will please consider concentrating on this series a bit more - opposed to the other Sci-Fi books. This series is a 5 star home run, and I love it immensely!Nothing more satisfying then getting a new book set in this universe - it matters not whom is staring - humans, cats, el at. I love this series more than oxygen and water!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. You've been Invited...By T. SwitzerAs one of the too few but ridiculously loyal fans of the YW series, the six-year wait between this book and the last one was a killer. So the second "Games Wizards Play" came out, I snapped it up. It look me about 2 1/2 days to read (would've been less, but I was trying to draw it out for as long as possible), and was delighted to find that many of the questions I'd harbored for so long concerning certain characters and plot developments were--at long last--answered. But, like any good book would do, it left me with new questions to mull over.One of the things I love so much about this series is how (wizardry aside) it realistically depicts the concerns of teens and adolescents. I know that I have read a few reviews about concerned parents, debating over whether or not the more "mature" content sparsely mentioned throughout the series was appropriate for their children. To these parents, I say: It's okay. Your kids already know about it. So many of us grow up and forget what it was like to be that age, when our classmates and our friends and our friends' older brothers and sisters had an evolutionary impact on how we viewed the world. Just rest assured that the two protagonists are excellent role models. Over the course of these ten books, they have grown up as beautifully as you can amidst the mess that is puberty.The characters are as diverse and flawed and quirky as they come. The wizardry is technological, the situations intriguing, and the aliens have since greatly renewed my appreciation of what is perhaps Earth's greatest product: chocolate. I give this book five stars; the only downside is that I'll probably have to wait another six years for the next one :(0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. *Review from The Illustrated Page*By Waites FamilyGames Wizards Play is the tenth book in the Young Wizards series, which starts with So You Want to Be a Wizard. I generally really like this series, but I think this installment has structural issues. If I had to guess, Irsquo;d say that a lot of Games Wizards Play is setting up for a future book.Games Wizards Play centers around the Invitational, a planet wide event where young wizards compete in whatrsquo;s essentially a magical science fair. Nita, Kit, and Dairine are all invited to be mentors to students in the competition. Nita and Kit are given Penn Shao-Feng, whorsquo;s working on a solar spell and whorsquo;s also a complete jerk. Dairine is assigned Mehrnaz Farrahi, a shy fourteen year old Iranian girl with a plan to stop earthquakes in their tracks and a whole heap of problems from her wizardly family. The book shifts between the perspectives of Nita, Kit, and Dairine.My largest problem with Games Wizards Play is that it felt anti-climatic. There were essentially four sources of tension in the book: Nita and Kit dealing with that sexist jerk Penn, Dairine trying to figure out what was going on with Mehrnaz, Nita having creepy prophetic dreams, and this underlying thread of awkwardness and confusion about the change in Nita and Kitrsquo;s relationship status. None of them were pulled off in an entirely satisfactory manner, although the Mehrnaz subplot came the closest. The resolution to the Penn plot line was definitely unsatisfactory, and I donrsquo;t feel like he had the character growth I was expecting or really saw any sort of consequences for his behavior.It felt like Games Wizards Play was relying on the prophetic dreams for a large source of its tension, but I donrsquo;t think they actually had anything to do with the climax (or if they did, I donrsquo;t get how). This is what makes me think that itrsquo;s setting up for a future book.Something else that might play into the ldquo;future bookrdquo; syndrome is that there were a number of newer characters who were being treated like something the readers should care about when wersquo;re not actually given any reason to care about them. Foremost among these is Lissa who had a number of bit scenes but didnrsquo;t really do anything. Itrsquo;s possible that the scene were she tells Nita shersquo;s asexual might have been part of some greater theme Duane was working with in regards to the whole Nita/Kit thing? Itrsquo;s hard for me to tell ndash; full confession, I didnrsquo;t want them to become girlfriend/boyfriend. Also, when I heard there was going to be an asexual character, I was sort of assuming that theyrsquo;d be relevant to the book? What I got was way less exciting. Anyway, I saw Duane say on tumblr that Lissa would be important ldquo;laterrdquo; so Irsquo;m guessing that was the primary reason for her inclusion. Itrsquo;s possible that I will like her once she becomes plot relevant.Given that I spent the last three paragraphs talking about everything I didnrsquo;t like about the book, I should point out that I still enjoyed reading it, despite my problems with the ending.

  • The Harry Potter Controversy
    The Harry Potter Controversy Emily Anne Woodrum The wildly popular Harry Potter book series by J. K. Rowling has caused controversy for many families over the past five years. These novels according to some critics are harmless, adventurous, children's tales. Others choose to portray them as stories that inspire children to become involved in the occult and serious witchcraft. The Harry Potter novels chronicle the life of a young wizard whose wizard parents were killed by the evil Lord Voldermort. On his eleventh birthday he receives invitation to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Each of the five books represents a year of his life there (Walker). This essay will discuss whether the Harry Potter novels are a suitable read for children and why despite what some critics portray, Harry Potter can be a positive role model for youth. In recent history a cultural phenomenon has occurred. With the rise of Harry Potter, this nation's youth have displayed a “mania” that has not been seen in reference to books for a long time. For example, Barns & Noble America's largest bookseller has recently declared that Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix will be their “largest seller in the history of the entire company” (Mangan). In light of this rise to fame one should note that Harry Potter can and will impact modern culture. In the “age of electronic entertainment”, Harry Potter novels sharply contrast by luring children away from the internet, and away from video games and the television. Children across the globe are rapidly becoming interested in reading the novels.

  • P U B L I C E N E M I E S Transience, Lyric, and Sociality in American
    PUBLIC ENEMIES Transience, Lyric, and Sociality in American Poetry By Christopher Patrick Miller A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English with a Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor C. D. Blanton (Chair) Professor Charles Altieri Professor Anthony Cascardi Summer 2017 ABSTRACT Public Enemies: Transience, Lyric, and Sociality in American Poetry By Christopher Patrick Miller Doctor of Philosophy in English with a Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory Professor C. D. Blanton, Chair A shadowy double to infrastructure expansion, resettlement, and urban development, the "transient" has long been a contradictory figure of permission and repression in imaginations of America, be it as Emerson's idealized "being-in-transience," the romantic freedoms of the "hobohemian," or the criminalized "stranger." What Public Enemies argues is that a crucial genealogy of thinking about transience and its antagonistic relationship to existing concepts of democracy has been carried out in the most local, seemingly private of scenes: lyric encounters between an “I” and a “you.” While Walt Whitman was the first to put serial pressure on the relation between transient persons and lyric formation, a long history of twentieth-century poetic interlocutors—Robert Frost, Hart Crane, George Oppen, Robert Creeley, and Amiri Baraka—adapt his experiments in transient speech acts to challenge normative conceptions of personhood, masculinity, affiliation, publicity, and national belonging. To understand the social character and content of lyric speech, Public Enemies situates current debates in literary formalism and lyric theory within political, juridical, sociological, and queer theoretical accounts of transience in America.

Lavado 2 The Magic of Books: A History of Medieval Magic and Literature Introduction Narrative binds people together with a common language and experience. It provides a singular manner for communication and interaction. Without this interaction, there would be no society or culture to speak of; with no way to articulate and control sounds, humans would be forced to communicate through the use of motions and gestures, deprived of the beauty and magic of language. Words can somehow capture pain, joy, beauty, awe, sadness, excitement, emotion and the very thrill that comes from being alive in a way that nothing else can. Language can inspire and influence as much as it can inflict pain and despair, making it truly the most powerful, and even magical, human resource.

McCarthy Associate Professor of English Assistant Professor of English (Committee Member) (Committee Member) J. Scott Elwell A. Jerald Ainsworth Dean of the College of Arts and Dean of the Graduate School Sciences NEW DIRECTIONS IN THE RHIZOME OF CHILDREN’S LITERATURE AND CHILDREN’S CULTURE: A CASE STUDY IN TRANSMEDIA STORYTELLING By KaTosha O’Daniel A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master’s of English The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, TN May 2013 ii ABSTRACT This thesis examines the changing idea of what constitutes a “text” in twenty-first century children’s literature and children’s culture. Beginning with John Newbery’s A Little Pretty Pocket-Book (1744), through the Golden Age of Children’s Literature—that of the 1860s to 1900—and as a result of the shift to a children’s culture in the 1950s onward, my project interrogates the historical rhizome of children’s literature and children’s culture. The historical rhizome, which serves as the framework for this thesis, indicates the emergence of a fourth branch in the rhizome in our current epistemic mutation to the digitized text. Using J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series as a case study, this thesis illuminates the ways Rowling’s texts can be used as a model to follow in the historical rhizome due to her twenty-first century awareness of audience and text.
