As a few colleagues sat down in the office yesterday to celebrate an important occasion, the conference table conversation got talking on books (and talk show mathematics). As we all contemplated the sense of impending doom with the new Dan Brown novel coming out, I thought about what would make the greatest mega-seller of all time.
The answer: a group of teenage vegetarian vampires, “day walkers,” go to a hidden school for magic in north England to hone their exciting magical powers. There is a good vampire society along with their evil counterparts, and they can pro-create. Most of the plot lines involve adventures at school or to major western cities where the dark secrets of Christianity come face to face with magic. (There would also be subtle parallels with today’s society). The main characters, a trio of loyal friends, maintain the balance between good and evil while learning the real power of love, morality, and most importantly, themselves.
