Want to buy a m8 the Harry Potter books for his birthday. He's got a couple of kids so reckon they'll read them - if they haven't done so already.

Just one question - what are the differences between the "Childrens" and "Adult" book editions ? Anyone know ?

:cheers:

Childrens books are the normal versions, the adults books tell you to get a life.

the cover ... and start with the first book from the series ... so the whole story makes sense ... the series starts rather funny but then turns quite dark and serious ... I love it tho :clap:

Yes the only difference I am told is the cover. Its just a marketing ploy to make adults think they are not buying a book that is aimed at children, apart from that story is exactly the same.


(personally I was hoping for some wizard porn :()

I'm currently re-reading Necroscope by Brian Lumley. Brilliant.
