His scar wards off evil. Sounds familiar? I keed, I keed, but I do like to rile the faithful. I am sure Michiko Kukutani wouldn't sing such high praises of Potter if it were a rip-off. It's possible that both writers were inspired by same folktales.</p> On his 11th birthday, the boy discovers he has magical power. His scar wards off evil. Sounds familiar?

The verse there reminds me more of LOTR than Harry Potter. Three rings for the elven kings... I deny the allegations that Rowling would have copied my favorite fictional character. (Ok, that's not true, my favorite fictional character is Samwise Gamgee.)</p> I skimmed thru the editorial review of Susan Cooper’s book. The verse there reminds me more of LOTR than Harry Potter.
