Talk about reviving an old thread...in my defense on 12/21 when the thread was new, I had a 6 day old baby.

Already pre-purchased my copy. I can't wait. I agree with CXGJarrod, I really hope the last book is done right.

Sadly, my oldest son has lost interest - he was the reason I started reading the books. He hasn't even finished the 6th book, but I'm totally addicted to the series too. I wish in a way it had stayed lighter and not quite so disturbing, but I'm not sure it would have been the same if it had.

It's time to dig them out and read from Book 1 again, so that I can be ready for the last one!
