amethyst73• The trailer for Voyage of the Dawn treader is out! Youtube link here - can't seem to find the embed code. Puzzled by some bits - clearly they've added some stuff. Special effects look straight out of Harry Potter. Speaking of which...
• Universal Studios has opened a "World of Harry Potter" area that sounds pretty neat. A lovingly detailed recreation of DiagonAlley and chunks of Hogwarts, with a couple of random rollercoaster rides thrown in for those who Must Have Rides. NYTimes articles here and here. Want to go, can't anytime in the vaguely foreseeable future due to (1) way too much travel this year already, and (2) need to keep "leisure" trips in Boston.
• I have the next book in Tad Williams' "Shadow" series in hand! (I actually got it out of the library a bit over a week ago, but it was way too big and heavy to lug to Boston and back.)

So, I'm fairly optimistic. Elsewhere, I found something about Jadis - she only appears very briefly - as a sort of flashback.
And I want a t-shirt that says "What are they teaching them in the schools these days".
