Wait, there can't be many male authors that have kicked the bucket and have been mentioned in the whole of the three pages of this thread, can there? *takes a deep breath* Can there? |

Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 3:21pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
Robert Ludlum. Wait lemme find the book |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 3:27pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
^^^ Lol. Ludlum? I hope you've read Ludlum before for I am a Ludlum fanatic. Those clues all point to Ludlum's evil and imaginary brother. . . . . .who is not Ludlum. In short, there's better chance it's one Saro Wiwa love child but not Ludlum. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 3:28pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
Tgirl4real: Meshionu! |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 3:36pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
pardon me then. Ken was gonna be my second answer. Apparently Ludlum wasn't a fantasy write. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 3:48pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
Where's Santino by the way? Once this one's answered i've got about 2 to ask. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 3:55pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
The dude is lurking in the shadows. Ask away abeg. I have not gotten any one right in like three million years now |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by Santino1(m): 3:59pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
uj_sizzle: Where's Santino by the way? I'm right here ma'am. @kay9....I'm going for throttle by Stephen King |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 4:35pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
Here's mine then. American based fantasy fiction writer Author was inspired after reading Lord of the rings (authors books bears some similarities IMO). Books always comes in series. Who's the author? |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 5:29pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
Hmmmn. Doesn't seem my losing streak will end soon |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 5:34pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
hehehe it's really not difficult |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 8:00pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
another clue author is a He |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 9:45pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
C. S. Lewis and Tolkien were friends. I dunno if inspired qualifies his work. That's the only thing I can think of. I'm sure it's wrong anyways |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by dominique(f): 10:13pm On Oct 09, 2012 |
has anyone gotten k9's riddle? me no know the answer. uj_sizzle: hehehe it's really not difficult thats if you're a fantasy reader. i'm running out of my wits on this one. google to the rescue |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 6:34am On Oct 10, 2012 |
Another clue Author writes epic fantasy. This should make googling easier. He shares the first name as another popular writer. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 9:32am On Oct 10, 2012 |
Robert Riordan? |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by kay9(m): 10:07am On Oct 10, 2012 |
Tgirl4real: Kay 9, where have beeen? Thought u were kidnapped by the garri market associationNaa i wasnt, i'm their undercover agent actually. Seun n his mods (excluding u, of course ) pissed me off so i've been staying away. Anyways, everyone PLEASE forgive me for breaking the 24hr rule; had a loooooong unfulfilled day yesterday. Yeah, it sucks, i know. So... seems no one got my riddle. I'm surprised o; actually had a bet with meself that uj_sizzle'll nail it the instant she shows up... uj_sizzle: Robert Ludlum. Santino1:No and no. vescucci: Wait, there can't be many male authors that have kicked the bucket and have been mentioned in the whole of the three pages of this thread, can there? *takes a deep breath* Can there?I concur, there truly cant be. Ok, ok... The author (who's been mentiond here SEVERAL times already) is no other than J.R.R TOLKIEN...yep, its him. And the answer to the riddle is ''THE CHILDREN OF HURIN''. Yes, yes, the book was completed and published by his son, Christopher Tolkien. But seriously now, hasnt anyone read the tragedy of Turin Turambar and the House of Hurin? Ok ok, i'm just showing off |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by sino(m): 10:33am On Oct 10, 2012 |

Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by Tgirl4real(f): 10:37am On Oct 10, 2012 |
Keep showing off Kay 9. At least Vescu |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 11:09am On Oct 10, 2012 |
vescucci: Robert Riordan? Nope. Lol you put way too much confidence in me Kay9. Never even thought of Tolkien. Good one. |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by kay9(m): 11:35am On Oct 10, 2012 |
^^Glad u likey mon ami. @Sino, hey bro! Yeah, been some donkey years since we played in Ariblaze's sandbox. Funny, it seems more'n half of the rant club is here... Hey V, how'd u do it? Tg has been tryin 2reassemble the club for ages. Tg, u know V doesnt like it when folks do that to his name. **aiit, i've derailed enough** uj_sizzle: Here's mine then.Terry Brooks? Mr ''everything'' of Shannara |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 1:49pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
kay9: Lol. This is how magicians work. Misdirection. Tolkien is unfortunate that his middle Earth books are so popular. One would be surprised to learn that J. K. Rowlings wrote anything besides the Harry Potter books. kay9: ^^Glad u likey mon ami. I didn't do anything oh. I just stumbled on Sino here and everything seemed to just somersault into a semblance of the old order. And don't mind that yeye girl with a T. I know her medicine |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by Tgirl4real(f): 2:14pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
vescucci: ^^^ and whatz ur medicine? |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 2:37pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
Koboko |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 2:57pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
kay9: ^^Glad u likey mon ami. correct! You're obviously in love with fantasies |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 3:04pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
Next one. Author's British. Write children's book known by numerous scenes of recurring characters. Author's books are pretty much popular in libraries. That last option's a give away. Who's the author? |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by vescucci(m): 3:36pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
Enid Blyton? Lol. I like taking wild guesses so don't kill me |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by kay9(m): 3:57pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
^^Yeah, should be her. Never read any of her books but i had a friend who never stopped yiddy-yacking about her way back then. uj_sizzle: **does 'azonto' happy dance** |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by dominique(f): 9:28pm On Oct 10, 2012 |
kay9: ^^Yeah, should be her. Never read any of her books but i had a friend who never stopped yiddy-yacking about her way back then. you don't mean it !!! not even when you were a kid uj over to you. its enid blyton right? |
Re: Guess The Author Or The Book by UjSizzle(f): 8:40am On Oct 11, 2012 |
