The Trouble with Harry

We here at Bloody Nib Manor read the first two or three Harry Potter novels. While entertaining, your faithful correspondent found them lacking. Perhaps it is because the books were written for children. When yours was of the target age of Harry Potter novels he was reading Sax Rohmer's Fu Manchu novels in the hope of growing up to become an Oriental villain with plans to take over the world. Instead I became a Christian and a machinist and married a wonderful, and decidedly not evil Japanese woman.

The attached link gives a pretty good look at the Harry Potter books: Asia Times Online :: Asian News, Business and Economy. And if you have the time, read the links at the bottom of the article.

I apologize for the lack of proper paragraphs in this post but the Blogger word processor seems to be having trouble understanding what an Enter key is for.
