I have watched docos on them both. They are both fascinating stories.

Finished this in one smoking break, lolmao. Yes it is a children's book. But it's one of many reasons that I enjoy the fantasy genre as much as I do as an adult. This was one of many favorite books of mine as a kid.
" The Little Princess Who Went Out In The World "

Just finished the first book in a grimdark trilogy based on chinese myths and traditions. Got the two other books as well, so maybe I'll just finish it now, or read something else in between. I haven't decided yet.

Right now, I'm currently reading: Rob Halford - Confess

Bears are protected nowadays. It was a part of our history yes. People lived close up on nature, and that had it's difficulities. There almost no bears left in Norway today. I've actually eaten Bear-Burger, which is a hamburger made out of bear-meat. It's traditionally sold at a annual festival in the city of Elverum.
Just finished 3 books in Christopher Stasheff's " The Warlock in Spite of Himself " series in 3 days, lol. Now I'm on the last book in the series (The Warlock's Last Ride) but, there is 2 more series after this, following The Warlock; Rod Gallowglass' children. And I actually got my hands on all those books in a flea market a couple of years ago.
