    • 25 years old here. I started reading the Young Wizards series during middle school. Not quite sure how old I was exactly, but it's been a long time.

      I read up to A Wizard Abroad, but I never realized she continued publishing books in the series until about a week ago. I have all the new books ordered right now, I can't wait to see where the series went while I've been gone!

              • *chuckling* I would feel old, were it not for the fact that the friend who got me into Diane's books in the first place began reading the series the year I was born. I'm 23, coming on 24.

                • Omg!

                  I hate it when i go to a forum and read off evry1s age(not like I look for it...) and see evry1s older than me!

                  Sadly, I am 12...going on-drum roll-(metaphor to how I act)...24

                  I do not look or act like a 12 yr old! Im just too odd and sophisticated!

                  • I probably win the contest for "old person"

                    I'm 60, although I'm not sure how that happened. I guess it happens to everyone eventually, if they live long enough.

                    I first ran across "Support Your Local Wizard" (first three books as one volume) in a thrift store. I liked the first two, but "High Wizardry" really did me in. It still does, probably because I've been a programmer since 1965 and Diane's magic is the most realistic programming-like magic I've ever run across.

                    Actually, I'm not sure that wizardry is necessarily fictional. If the universe is a big computer, as an article in Scientific American a few years ago proposed, what would happen if you learned its programming language? It might work just like Diane's wizardry!

                      Awesome idea :-D I also loved HW for it's 'realistic' computer magic.

                      Off on a tangent - I just pre-ordered AWoM on Amazon. Now I just have to wait till next April and hope... it would be a fantastic birthday present! :-)

                        You win on age, but I win on reading them longer -- High Wizardry came out after I started reading the series. :-) (I think Kathy beats me there, though...)

                        (To save everyone the trouble of looking up my previous entry in the thread and doing the math, I'm 41 now.)

                          I pre-ordered it too, and I've already said to Herself that if she makes it to DWcon next August, I'm bringing it to be autographed. *G*

                            • Im 18, I picked up SYWTBAW in 6th grade for a book repot and never finished it. Then like 4-5 years later I picked it up again when we were going on a 6 hour drive and I felt likr finishing it and never looked back.

                              • Really I picked up SYWTBAW in 6th grade too, and it took me forever to finish the second book.
