    I wish Pendragon could become movies or a TV series. Makes me sad that so many other books out there are getting picked up, but not Pendragon. Series of Unfortunate Events is going to Netflix, His Dark Materials is going to BBC, why can't Pendragon as well?

    • @kristenbooks
      @kristenbooks  8 лет назад +8

      Ugh, I agree. He wrote them intending for them to be made into either a movie or tv show so it's a shame that they still don't have one.

    • @dracowolf80
      @dracowolf80 6 лет назад +1

      I think it would work best as a tv series because they could do it more justice unless they planned to make it like Harry Potter which would be great but it’s got to have a lot more of a fan base in order for that to happen.

    Pendragon has long been my favorite book series (only recently dethroned as number one by Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archive), but man have I been enjoying an audiobook binge while at work. I can't help but think that this series would make a great show on Netflix or TV (I'd buy cable just to watch it!). I don't even remember where I heard the name or what inspired me to ask my English teacher if she had a copy, but I am so glad I did.

    • @kristenbooks
      @kristenbooks  6 лет назад +1

      I think it was originally supposed to be made into a TV show (DJ MacHale worked on TV for a long time), so I've always hoped for one. Unfortunately, I'm starting to think it's past its relevancy expiration date. Still keeping up hope, though!

  • @taylorlynn-art
    @taylorlynn-art 7 лет назад +8

    Great video :) There aren't many RUclips video talking about the Pendragon series. It's actually my favorite series of all time. My mom won the first one in a contest online and I remember reading it when I was eleven years old. I'm nearly twenty-two now, and I still read them over and over. My favorite is Raven Rise, then Pilgrims of Rayne. Courtney has always been my favorite character, and who doesn't love Loor and Spader too? I made a video on my channel titled Pendragon Character Cast, with photos of what I imagined each character looking like in my head. I have a necklace with a tiny hand-drawn-looking star and I've worn it since I realized it looked exactly like the star on the flumes :) I really hope someday a TV series gets made for Pendragon. It's such a shame it's not talked about or more well-known!

    • @kristenbooks
      @kristenbooks  7 лет назад +3

      Oh wow that's awesome! It's such a good series, I wish more people would talk about it. I guess since it's an older series that isn't a HUGE deal (like HP & The Series of Unfortunate Events) people don't talk about it too much, which is a shame. DJ originally wanted it to be a TV series or movie so I'm never going to stop hoping for one!

  • @kylierae1370
    @kylierae1370 8 лет назад +1

    Just discovered your channel and I noticed your Pendragon books in the background. Went back to find this video, I'm so glad to hear someone talk about this series! Pendragon was one of my absolute favorite series as a kid. When I first read them, I didn't know anybody else who did too, and now I still don't hear a lot about it. I'm rereading them again now because it's been a while. They're definitely under-hyped.

    • @kristenbooks
      @kristenbooks  8 лет назад

      +Kylie Rae The books were really big in my Jr. High, so I was really surprised to see that not a lot of people on booktube had read them! They're so awesome and I can't believe how under-hyped they are.

  • @Divinemakyr
    @Divinemakyr 6 лет назад +2

    picking a favourite character is impossible in my opinion, loor that badass warrior, spade that fun dude who you want to hang out and that one old guy from the 3rd book i haven't read it in a while so i forgot his name but he is the really nice old man

  • @WithoutACause1796
    @WithoutACause1796 6 лет назад +4

    I know I'm late to the train lol, but I love this series quite a lot and I was about to re-read it and wanted to find someone on booktube who also love it and I'm just so sad that people don't talk about this series as much as they should! It's so good and there is just so much potential for it and I can't believe more people don't know about this series. THANK YOU FOR TRYING TO SHOW PEOPLE HOW AMAZING THIS SERIES IS.

    @GS-oc6me 6 лет назад +1

    Notice any similarities between Book 8 and Book 5's cover? The book 8 cover you're seeing is actually the second cover after the first one that was used for preorders it's buried out there now but I'm sure you can go find it. If I remember right the publisher made alot of last minute changes to book 8 and had a hard time getting Book 8's cover just right. It was also originally called Pendragon The Great when first announced.

    Omg finally found someone who actually read these books........ This series came out way to early and if had come out now it would have dominated the book tube world.

    @ace-ue9tv 5 лет назад +7

    OMG I just finished the series just now...no spoilers tho. I LOVED IT 10/10 FOR ME
    WAIT! DO NOT LEAVE BECAUSE THIS IS A LONG COMMENT! KNOW THIS MIGHT MAKE MORE OF YOU CLICK AWAY BUT PLEASE READ AHEAD!
    Btw Loor...the classic favorite traveler.shes my fav too
    Especially when she had to tell Bobby the hard truth...
    OK OK no spoilers!
    I think you didn't like Eelong because you couldn't picture yourself there, as a gar and with the klees that can eat you.
    I think you didn't like Zadaa because of the kinda racist plot they had going on between the Rokador and the Batu.
    I think you liked Choral because it was REALLY far in the future, and I think Choral would be like Earth if Earth had no land :P
    To be honest, I really HATED Harry Potter. But then I sit here in bed in the middle of the night. Finishing a fantasy book. Seemingly just like it. NOPE. But I'm putting my heart and soul into this. As I have heard of the S place (if you know what I mean) and I know the cutie redhead who made this isn't as popular as she deserves to be, I will still put my heart into this because I know that one day someone in halla will read this before or after they read Pendragon.
    because I lived my life horribly, I found books. I saw that I could hear of what someone wished their life could be like. I truly and fully believe that everything in pendragon happened. That book one may have been sitting on the fiction shelf, but that is just a title that adults put on it. This is how I began reading pendragon. One day when I was mature enough to grasp this book, I started reading it. Once I started I couldn't stop. Because I knew that pendragon's story cannot end abruptly. So I read and read. I found myself into the third quarter of the year, and I sit here making this comment just as I finished the ten books. I can't say I recommend this book, I think that everyone in Halla should know what pendragon has to do to help us archive victory. won't bore you with details, but I recommend the audiobook because I'm going back to the beginning in the audiobook and I have been saying words in my head very wrong. I have been saying Pendragon as Pen dra gon instead of pen dragon and apparently there is another way to say alder? It sounds alien to me. But anyways. You should read the audiobook because Pendragon is a great book. I can't say why EXACTLY without spoilers. So just have my word on this like you have your best friend's word on something they say. Read Pendragon. I don't care if she said with all her heart that she didn't like Pendragon. Read it. Just trust me. It will give you a bigger perspective on life itself. No I'm not being cosmic. Ok maybe a little. Especially if you haven't read Pendragon. But if you have, you know what I'm trying to say here. Also, reading EVERY book is important. If you leave out one, that's like leaving out your wedding dress the day you get married. Everything you know about life itself will change, but in a more after life experience.
    Hobey-ho let's go

    I realy loved this video. Thanks a lot for coming up with this. I actually felt that there were not much people reading the Pendragon series. But now am really happy to see someone(you) trying to make it popular. Thanks a million time.
    One question please: Are there the"movies" of Pendragon( like the harry potter series). If there are, on which site can i watch the movies? Please. Thank you

      I’m also trying to complete my collection with the original edition covers and got book #7 - quillian games original hardback on eBay in like new condition ~$18. It kinda upsets me that the 2nd edition covers are so 🚮🚮🚮 :(( Covers often spark initial interest , Merchant of Death looked so good but if I was in the bookstore as a child today and saw the new design I know I wouldn’t have payed it any attention unless recommended.

    p.s. i didnt watch your whole video as ive yet to finish the series.

    • @kristenbooks
      @kristenbooks  8 лет назад

      I'd suggest trying the Books A Million or Half Price Books websites. Both stores' websites have sections where people can sell their used books and that's where I got my copies of 1-6. And yeah, I remember being really weirded out the first time I read #10- I didn't like it much until my re-read 2 years ago.

    • @XENOGALAXY
      @XENOGALAXY 8 лет назад

      right on!, i found 8-10 at my local halfprice a few weeks ago and for the past 3 months ive re-read and caught up. Not reading anything else so i can get a firm understanding of the story as a whole. I didnt realize that the author got progressively more and more, i dont wanna say adult oriented, but the subject matter and his story telling, it felt as if he knew everyone reading the series was growing up, as well as pendragon doing the same. and so far book ten is really crazy. like the way he starts it off answering soooo many questions. I really like it. it sucks that this is it though :/ Anyways thanks for the reply i dont wanna bug you anymore so i'll just say i'll finish watching your review when im done!

    Im soo late. I read this in grade 7 and used book 2 for a book project. I often have a hard time reading fiction but I really loved the books. I think i let go of the story after book 5 came out, maybe cuz i went ot high school and i forgot about it. Lmao
    Now i wanna re read and this time actually finish it.
    I wish there were a series about this but it would be better on tv than in cinema imo bc movie versions of fantasy stories, after the first couple harry potter movies, have always tended to be a dissappointment for me.
    I cant remember how i was reminded of this recently since no one still talks about it enough. Lol

    Gonna be controversial and say book 8's Bobby looks like a good interpretation of an older book 1 Bobby, but still always seemed weird. He looks wayyyyy too old in book 5 too.
    I read the first 5 but for some reason stopped when they went to Loor's home even though I had 6, 7, and 8. Came here to find out more what happened.
