Silverwing/Sunwing/Firewing

Sat Aug 07, 2004 12:08 am

Has anyone else read these books? They're probably my favorite books, besides the Harry Potter series. They're by Kenneth Oppel and I recommend them to anyone who likes to read.
Believe me, even if you don't like talking animals, you'll probably love these books.
But I'll give you a fair warning not to read Firewing if you're easily torn up. -Bawled for hours-

OMG I love this series ^^ the tv shows were crap though I must say.
I was also suprised at the end of Firewing...I can't believe he died *shakes head*
We read Silverwing at school...and I was the only one who had read it before hand. I couldn't tell anyone what happened.

I haven't read the Silverwing and Sunwing for a while but they're still waiting on my shelf for the day I pick them up again. I have good memories though. The ending of Firewing was so sad though! Why? Why? Why? :cry:

I read the first two, haven't read Firewing yet for forgetfullness. He DIES? Well, not to traumatic for me yet, as I haven't read it for almost a year.

Hmm, I've never heard of this series, I check it out, I usually don't read books under 300 pages, but the rule can be broken, he dies, now I know the ending:/

I'm still trying to finish up the last of the Redwall books but I can sneak in some in-between reading I guess.

I guess I worded that kind of funny :oops: Well...considering the setting of the book I suppose you could say that too anyway ;)

I've never heard of these books... Are they truly that good? If so, I could check the library to see if they have them. I haven't seen these books in shops, so I'm not sure...

Yes, there is a TV show. It's called, 'Silverwing' (Yes, shocking, I know). I haven't watched it as I'm not really into cartoons and this series anyways. However, my old schools always had Silverwing and Sunwing as a choice to read. I don't know what happened to Firewing.

Well even though the endings spoiled, I'm still gonna read them; I saw it at the barnes and noble today, they were only 5 dollars so next time I go back there I'm going to buy it.
