Review: Fire & Ice

Actually, it's been a while since I finished reading this. Been putting it off or just forgetting to do this. I'm on book four now! So yeah, gotta do book three later.

Little bit of spoilers.

The main character's finally become a warrior and is given his new name; Fireheart. This one was just as interesting and good as the first. And we find out that Fireheart has kin. Princess is one of his sister's from his 'kittyped' kit days.

Through out the book once it gets started Fireheart finds out that his best friend Graystripe has a girlfriend. The same she-cat whom saved the gray cat from drowning in the river.

Hitch.

She's RiverClan.

I love how the story eventurally unfolds but I'll leave you to find out the rest of it.

Quiz - The True Fan

Your result for The Fan Fiction Personality Test...

The True Fan

OOC is blasphemy, canon is everything.

Once you fall in love with a movie, book or TV series, you are loyal like an old dog. You take fanfiction quite serious and use it as a substitute after the canon ran out.

You are probably a walking dictionary of your favourite fandom and you are picky about what you write and read. The closer to the "real thing" fanfiction is, the more you like it.

You rather explore a character in all depth, see new sides and learn more about them than creating new characters or mix up the situations they are in.

MR Movie

I've been looking to see if I can find anymore info. regarding the new Maximum Ride movie. Other than the date that seems to remain consistent for this year, I haven't gotten much. Even searched on James Patterson's official website and could find squat that wasn't at least close the end of 2009.

The only thing I could find was the potential movie name; Night Flight. Here's the original source on JP's forum courteious of Jessica.

Other info. from various sources (all telling me the same thing):

Director: Catherine Hardwiche who's directed Twilight, Lords of Dogtown, & Thirteen.

Lords of Dogtown I don't think I heard about maybe more than twice so can't give you anything there that Google or Yahoo (or any other search engine) couldn't tell you. Thirteen; got nothing. But, OMG! Twilight?! Someone help me! No. Really. If this turns into another 'Twilight' I'll take my books back I have of the Maximum Ride series. Okay, the Twilight was at least a 'borrow from a friend' but, just, god.

Producer(s): Avi Arad (a whole shit load of stuff, that's all I'm telling you) & Steven Paul

Executive Producer: James Patterson

Screenwriter: Don Payne

Moviefone source

I'll be keeping a look out for upcoming info. but, that's all I got. . .

For now ;)
