i finished the dark is rising last night, and it was really, really bad, but ever so cute and funny and fun. i think they should make a semi-parody movie of this series and in that quiz bowl scene in the mountain in the grey king merriman should whip out two little desks with buzzers for them.

my favourite part: "Some small powers the Old Ones and the people of the Dark have in common, and one of them is this catching a man out of Time, for as long as is necessary. Or in the case of the Dark, for as long as they find it amusing." and here i thought they had some deep and, well, dark purpose that was outside our mortal ken for taking over the earth. actually, they're just sociopaths who find suffering amusing!

also, "...in his [the Rider]'s face incredulity and rage were mingled with a kind of evil respect." ahahahahah. which, as wax pointed out, is a lot more hardcore and meaningful than good respect. (213)
