Kael Tucker:
Well, Thank you, DS. I don't know how old your daughter is, but I know that I wish now that someone had twisted my arm much sooner. My life and grades in school might have been much better. For me, it almost released all the blocks that were working against me in reading a long book... I would have never imagined I would be 13 books down one particular series... I am happy also that she is sharing in much of the same success.

  As far as Mr. Marsters, I can honestly say I cannot imagine Harry's voice being any different. I can Honestly say, if he ever quits, I will be sticking to print.   Once again, thank you for your kind words, and thank you for supporting the Guard.

I got into the books because of a friend--who I am forever grateful to--who kept talking about the series and said I should try it. I did, and fell in love. I heard about the tv show after that.

And I recently got another close friend to try out the series and she loves it. She's waiting as eagerly as I am for Cold Days.

I watched the show but it never really turned me to the books until I got bored and decided I wanted to follow something new.  I started with the first 3 and then got everything up to Turn Coat (it was in hardcover then) within 2 weeks.  Been a fanboy eversince.  Pity I can't seem to get my fanboy friends onboard though.

when the show came out i caught about half of the episodes. then forgot about it. a year or 2 later I saw you tube hosting the whole season with ads every 10 min so i watched the ones i missed. got hooked and re watched the whole tv series again. then I saw in the comment section someone moaning "omg book bob is so much better this guy sucks!" now i love the Tv bob but I hadn't even known about the books until then so I went to the library they had only once copy of i think proven guilty turns out like NONE of the libraries in my area ad the full set but they all had one or two. so i asked them to ship me a copy of storm front having read the little page in the on copy they did have that listed them. a week later they call me to come get it... it was the graphic novel volume 1  -____-; but i took it anyway while the library got the right book to come in. after storm front i wen and got the next three at one and read them in a week. i was in junior year at high school ( 3 years ago) and people kept getting surprised that I had a new book every other day. i manged to get the last current books in the series in once trip to 3 different libraries in 2 different towns. (death masks-turn coat) at finished them over Christmas vacation. a year later i bought the whole series as a Christmas present to my self.

just this summer I bought the Dvd of the tv series I was with my friend at the time and I was trying to get him into the series so on the way home I just told him to take the Dvds and get back to me in a week. he was hooked in a week and I gave him Storm front when he gave me the Dvds back. he's on dead beat now.

Went to post library and read whole series.
Then bought every new bvook that was out even after coming back CONUS.
