Why do I think of this thread every time I look at the copy of Wizards First Rule on my shelf...

Because... I don't know... But I agree anyways?

Wizard's First Rule was okay. It was shortly after that that the series really went downhill.

Went really downhill also.  Not so far as the ever so Canadian TV series however. :P

Oh man. I watched part of one episode of that before I realized how absolutely awful it was.

I'm a firm believer in getting rid of objects that bring bad luck. I support your actions but I demand the ashes be spread over an ocean.. or something to honor the book that was, even if said book was cursed.

Oh, see, I didn't think the series was so horrible. I mean, yes, it was horrible, no doubt about it, but that's what made it good. ;)

I was kind of sad to see it canceled, even if I didn't watch each new episode as it came out.

It certainly changed but I wouldn't say it went completely downhill.  Faith of the Fallen was probably my favorite book in the series, and it has one of the best wizard rules.

In fact, the wizard rules from those books might be the most amazing thing I have ever gotten out of any books I've ever read.

I agree with Miyabi about how serious this is being taken. Life was sucking, so I support the move, and I will laugh!

But I would never burn a book myself. I just don't have the stomach for it  ;)

Well, for some of us - at least for me - burning a book is tantamount to sacrilege. I'd feel the same if it was Twilight or Sword of Truth he was setting on fire, and I hate those books with a passion.

Wizard's First Rule was  a cheap knockoff of EotW IMO. Actually cheap is too weak of a word to describe how it was knocked off.
