I think this was a close one, Sounsians, but Ring of Solomon has indeed won the SLJ's Battle of the Kids Books.

Richard Peck's wrap-up. 

Oh, and don't miss Megan being witty in the comments.

Woe! Sadness!

*arm falls off*

*heads home to eat brains*

I hear brains are a delicacy in some zombie cultures, Mrs. Turner. ;D

*drowns out sorrows with brains icecream*

Well I suppose I now have a new series to read until the next book comes out, Megan! :-)

On the other hand, I wonder if things may have gone differently *had* Richard Peck read the entire series...

What about brain-flavored ice cream? I imagine it would be a greyish-purple color.

Sounis would never CRAWL just as Attolis would NEVER ride a horse, lol.

Well, Bartimaeus is pretty awesome. I'm down with this. I was thinking more and more about the importance of fun, and Ring of Solomon is a little less Of the Awesome than Conspiracy of Kings, but it is a lot more fun. If CofK had to lose to something, I'm glad that this was it.

Okay, Okay... Walk with dignity. Happy now? ;D

How about ice-cream flavored brains? Err... *isn't quite sure what sort of creature would possess such a thing* I know! Let's ask the Doctor! He's probably met a zombie at some point in his lives.

Ah, ice cream and brains... The comfort food of all undead creatures.

Squee! Megan Whalen Turner knows my user-nickname! *freaks out in corner*

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

YES!!

You know, that sounds like a crazy product we should try to market. II think we're getting positively reprobatish now.

I concur! *waits for TARDIS to materialize*

Have my brains. I'm not using them, and you need yours. You know, for your writing? And mine are chock full of stuff. Kind of hoarder brains, in a way. Stuff piled up all over the place, can't find anything...

This comment was meant to be directed to Ms Turner. I don't know how to reply directly, apparently. Hmmm...

[elle-winters.livejournal.com]

Yes, mwt definitely needs her brains, and I'm sure there's definitely half of my brains that are not being used..

*offers brains on a toothpick*

[tiegirl.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAHA!!!! Wish I'd thought of a fancy toothpick! You can tell you're still using half of your brain!

*goes chuckling off to sleep*
