Kaleb Nation has his own style of writing. I can just see it when I read. His work, as some say, resembles J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter. I am not inclined to disagree, however, I do know that there are MANY differences, and few similarities. Oh, Bran's an orphan, and so was Harry. Also, the book has magic. And mages. You know what J.K? You should definitely be suing Kaleb Nation just like that other person tried to sue Stephanie Meyer, because he OBVIOUSLY stole your story. Word from the wise to all you writers out there, if your story contains magic and your main character is an orphan boy, you better throw it out the window because you are using J.K. Rowling's copyrights on boys, magic, and orphans.
In other news, a mysterious creature has appeared on the roof of the Wilomas's. The chapter's in this book seem to be fairly short, at least so far, and so there isn't a whole lot to talk about. Sewey plans to catch a supposed burglar who came to his house by waiting on the roof for him/her. Bran has to go with, just because. Well, because he's an Accident. That's apparently what he's called around Dunce, or at least in the Wilomas house. Oh look, there's ANOTHER Harry Potter similarity! Bran's adopted family doesn't want him. Well, the chapter ends somewhat frightfully, with “the creature” jumping onto the roof and Bran jumping out of the way just in time. Way to build the intensity Kaleb Nation!
Is it even possibly to sue for character similarity?
Well, if you could, no one would want to get published. They'd be too afraid they'd get sued somehow. There are so many books out there; it's just about impossible to have an original idea.
