Do you read that?
It's "Return to Groosham Grange"
I hope they translate it on polish fast! Smiley

if you have a chance to read it, i really recommend it.  personally i think groosham grange is some of AH's best work.  i do advise you to read groosham grange first though, before return to groosham grange.  some of RTGG won't make sense without having read the first one

i'm surprised it's not translated in polish yet?  it's already old...when was it written?  like 1989 or something? (in other words waaaaaaaaaaay earlier than Harry Potter Tongue)

That seems to be the only logical explanation.

I'm not sure if I understood correctly...

There are only two Groosham Grange books.

he's right, there aren't any more, cause by the time the second one was published and stuff, harry potter came out, and any book AH would have published in the groosham grange series would have been compared to harry potter, and probably he would have been accused of...what's it called...stealing her ideas... because his books didn't propel him to stardom the way Harry potter did for JK Rowling.

personally i hate this...i think Groosham Grange would have very well been the best series AH wrote.  I love these two books, they're my fav AH books, and that's why i'm not at all a fan of Harry Potter

return to groosham grange = the unholy grale = groosham grange 2

it's ok, if you don't understand something it's best to ask, how else would you learn? Smiley

As usual, I agree with what you said, Rainbowstar.

I wish so much that he had continued on with the series... these books were the reason I ever got into AH anyway, and they were one of the frist novels I ever read...

well they weren't the first novels i read, but they were the reason i got into AH.  enter, Frederick K Bower is all good as well, but Groosham Grange just tops it all

I didn't think the sequel to Groosham Grange really fit properly to the first one. There were certain things that didn't add up. Like their names. In Groosham Grange they found out that kids who joined the school were given new names, but in the sequel they still had their own names. And there were a few other things I didn't think made sense but I can't remember them right now.
