I think this is hilarious.
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

Peter's just happy that it means more book sales for his employer.  ;)

That's a pretty good cartoon, Terrisman.  I wonder, if people like that really do think that way, how much money Philip Pullman has earned so far.  Love his books; could never get why people burned them...
Hmmm....

As down the Aeonglass it pours,
Until the Darkness shift the glass
And bring the Lords to Bloody shores."

same reason they burned HP--it's so popular that they assume it's part of some underground witchcraft movement:)

AAAAAAAAH I WEEP!

burning books is a saddening practice...But perhaps justified in this instance. I sincerely hope things start to turn up for you, now that the spirit has been exorcised. If things keep going downhill you know you've awakened a book ghost or something.
