UH OH! -- B&N/Schafer

In my fiction class here at Ohio State we just got done reading  
CoS and then did a comparative study with it and The Lion, The 
Witch and The Wardrobe (also the topic of my final paper).  
Someone mentioned the Shafer book and there were two or three 
people that cringed.  I personally haven't read it/glanced through it.  
So I don't have an opinion one way or another.  

But, when I was at Barnes and Noble a couple months ago buying 
the first two books in paperback for a friend of mine, this guy was 
looking at the Shafer book and a clerk from the store walked by 
and said "Honestly....I wouldn't buy that if I were you."  and walked 
off.  The guy looked at me with an eyebrow raised and said 
"Oooh....sounds mysterious."  :-)

"Is he - a bit mad?" he asked Percy uncertianly.
"Mad?" said Percy airily.  "He's a genius!  Best wizard
in the world!  But he is a bit mad, yes.  Potatoes, Harry?"
