I think it was Scott, because A. Jamie always saw him as older (not that that makes much of a difference) and B. in
The Silver Citadel
Jeremy (Scott) is 5 minutes older than Nicholas (Jamie) so... yeah.

..I don't get the first point. Is that meant to be grammar? I meant it as in Nightrise he always saw Scott as the older, but in Necropolis it didn't really say.. and I think Jamie was kind of, in charge, rather than 'older'.
I know it is, but AH tends to keep that sort of thing the same in the originals and this version.

No, they're HIS books xD. Back in the 80's, AH wrote a fantasy series called
the Pentagram.
It was based on five teenagers... Martin Hopkins, Pedro, Jeremy and Nicholas Helsey, and Will something, who were to fight the Old Ones. The series didn't sell very well, so Ah only wrote up to the 4th book. Twenty-odd years later, he rewrote the series, entitling them
The Power of Five
, or
The Gatekeepers
in America, with the same basic plot, jst changing stuff liek the names... and Will was made into a girl.
Martin Hopkins - Matthew Freeman.
Pedro - Pedro (duh...
)
Jeremy Helsey - Scott Tyler
Nicholas Helsey - Jamie Tyler
Will something - Scarlett Adams

They're out of print... I managed to get the first three (
Devil's Door-bell, Night of the Scorpion, Silver Citadel
) without any trouble, but
Day of the Dragon
is VERY rare, and the lowest I've seen it is 161GBP.
Anyhoo, BOT...

(no chatspeak!)
GBP - Great Britain Pound xD. The pound sign doesn't like the board... "?". You're American, right? I think 161GBP is $322..or it was, before the pound started to go really badly....
And BOT means Back On Topic.
