Eddie's Ramblings: Witch & Wizard book 4?


My Rant
Super powerful gifts of magic! All knowing prophecies! Action! Fire! Witches and Wizards! And er..... Kisses? That's exactly what went through my mind when I found out the news. James Patterson will be writing a Fourth Witch & Wizard book entitled; The Kiss. Yep, James Patterson is allegedly done with the action, done with the adventure, done with the suspense, and has now moved on to mushy Romance. To grasp the enormity of what just happened let's visualize this: Rick Riordan has finished his third Percy Jackson novel......and on the fourth installment.... right before the end......he names it "The Kiss" The Kiss! How on earth does that happen!?! I can tell you that allot of male readers simply won't read this latest establishment. Just the cover and title of this novel is quite enough to put off the random adventure/action reader. I personally think James should go back to the classic covers,  Perfectly generic and likeable to any type of reader.

Well, do you agree? What do you have to say on the topic? Comment below!

  1. I didn't know about this! That's a shock, I never thought Patterson would be the type. I haven't read any in this series because I've heard of bunch of mixed reviews on them, they are much less popular that his other series. Did you like the Witch and Wizard books? I agree that he will lose some male readers by the title alone.

    Also, I saw that you followed me on my partner site, Paperbook Princess and I would so grateful if you could follow my main blog located at: http://www.readerswonderland.com/

    I look forward to more of your posts!
