Well, it is James Patterson. ;) Svets style and sense of humor is what kept me going. I'll be honest, after rereading the second volume, I really want her to finish it up and get back to Nightschool.

Hah! yeah, Which is ur fav. Nightschool? (I like James Patterson's Maximun Ride)

I am curious about Maximum Ride. I read a lot of Patterson back in the day, and I really wanted to like his stuff, but it all sort of blended together. Nothing really stood out, with the exception of a book called The Lake House, which was the precurser to Maximum Ride. It was about a group of winged kids (not the same ones from Maximum Ride).

Nightschool is definitely my current FAV, so far as western manga is concerned. I need to give Maximum Ride a shot, but I'm worried it will fall short of my expectations, Patterson's work often does (Witch&Wizard included).

Svet's Dramacon is of course an Epic Win, but Nightschool's still my FAV! :dance:

Svet also did a great one shot comic in one of the Flight Anthologies called On The Importance of Space Travel. Here's a sample. It's excellent! [link]

I know! I'm so proud! :eager:

If I ever meet her at a con, I will have a matted print for her. She's been such an all around inspiration for both my art and writing!

I suggest u read the chapter books 1st, since the manga has changes in em, 2 make it a tad bit different from the books, I learned that the hard way. :iconshadowfrost1:

I'll consider it. I have a lot of books on my reading list and Patterson always makes me nervous. Though the Maximum Ride books appear to be quicker reads. ... Okay, I'll check them out!

But I must warn u, theyy have curse words, but then again I believe I counted a few in Nightschool! XD :D

Doesn't bother me. Most of the books I read do. ;)
