    Easily one of Diana Wynne Jones best works. She has a really good way of grabbing you and bringing you into her world. I must say however if you love this book PLEASE do not watch the Studio Ghibli film. I normally love Ghibli's work but this has to be the worst conversion from a book to a film. Totally changed the plot and I understand Ms Jones was not in the least happy with it!

    There is so much more in this book then in the movie. Still, both are great.
