throuthehaze said...

I have read Wicked and enjoyed that so I am sure Son of a Witch is good too. oooooo Fallen! I am dying to read that one

Unknown said...

Wow, so many new followers!

Son of a Witch was really good. Not as good as Wicked, but still very good.

Unknown said...

Wow, so many followers already!

Argh. another book to add in my neverending TBR pile!

Rebecca said...

I love the cover of Children of the Lamp.

Mariana S said...

224 followers and counting, congrats!!!

They both look pretty good, nice covers ;)

Nikki (Wicked Awesome Books) said...

I can't believe how many books are in the MegaBook Giveaway now!!

I've never read Children of the Lamp, but I read Lost by Gregory MaGuire and it had some weird undertones of incest and it kind of turned me off of his books. I actually own Son of a Witch and I'll probably get around to reading it sooner or later.

:D Nikki

Orchid said...

I've heard of both books, but have never read either one. :)

melissa @ 1lbr said...

Ooh, I haven't read any of Maguire's books. Sounds fabulous!

babygirlG said...

I'm going to be sorry when the contest ends! This is so much fun!

ninefly said...

oh wow, I love retold myths/fairy tales, and I've been curious about the Wicked sequels for a while now
even if I win, I don't know if I'm going to be able to pick a single book from this glorious selection anymore

and congrats on 200+ followers!
