An author is an Odyssey Character?
I read a book called "blood of heaven" written by an author named Bill Myers. I was told later that Bill Myers is the voice of Mr. Mulligan on the AIO show. Is that true?

I thought that it was cool when I found out that Bill Myes was Mike Mulligan! I used to read some of his books - the Wally McDoogle series is hilarious! Sure, it's meant for kids, but it makes for a quick and entertaining read at an older age too! I also read part of his "Forbidden Doors" series a super long time ago...those have probably been out of print for years already. I'm so old!

Actually, the Forbidden Doors were brought back into print just a few years ago and a couple new books were written (but not by Bill, oddly enough). I read the first 11 books, and the last sentence of book 12 (yes, I used to be terrible about reading ahead. The last sentence was a major plot twist, too.)

Bill Meyers ftw.
Bill Meyers ftw.
Interesting! I know that I read the first few, but that was a long time ago, and I had no idea that there are so many more now! It's odd that they continued the series with a different author. If I'm ever feeling nostalgic, I'll go see what they have available at the library!Applesauce wrote:Actually, the Forbidden Doors were brought back into print just a few years ago and a couple new books were written (but not by Bill, oddly enough).

I adore McGee and Me, so Bill Myers should practically be my hero or something. Books, AIO, and McGee and Me were the staple of most of my formative years!
