Hi--Who goes there? Does any one know if Brad Strickland is writing any new 'Bellairs'? How do you compare his writing and plots to the originals? I am glad he...
I believe that a new Lewis Barnavelt story is due out this summer, actually... "The Whistle, The Grave And The Ghost." I think Strickland does a great job of...
I myself have very limited interest in Strickland--I find his use of '50s culture to be too forced in a "Look! Here we are in the 50's!" way rather than the...

Jonathan - great to see the new look! Am looking forward to getting back on and being more active on the site. And to Jon in Battle Creek...I'm glad to see I'm...
It's not just you. I have always found those illustrations too precious. Much too cute. If only those books had been blessed by the Gorey pen. Let us all moan...
Hello to all. Although I'm brand new to the group I'm a long-time fan of John Bellairs and his works. Ever since the first time I read "The Curse of the Blue...
Thanks for the heads-up! I've actually seen her auctions on Ebay. I've always refrained since I've already got a number of volumes and I'm loathe to shell out...
