In fact, ANY book should be as long as it takes to tell the story. Look how long the Harry Potter books got. Were we bored? No! Even after Page 926 I hated to see it end. Same with Christopher Paolini's 4-book Inheritance trilogy. He made a live video on his website explaining that the story just wasn't ready to end, and that even though he loved long books there was a limit as to how much one volume could reasonably cover. Who the heck was debating the "con" side of long books?Mary FaganFri, 09 Jan 2009 14:30:25 -0000http://dailydoseoffantasy.disqus.com/fox_to_remake_the_great_adventure_movie_8220romancing_the_stone8221/#comment-4239801Yes, Romancing the Stone was a very exciting and romantic adventure move. But when you consider over 397,000 works are published every year in the English-speaking world alone (Wikipedia’s stats for UK, USA and Canada), why not move on? Why mess with the classics? RARELY do the redos match the quality of the originals.Mary FaganSun, 07 Dec 2008 18:55:49 -0000
