I’ve read a couple of Joan Aiken’s stories before and I’ve always been interested in reading more, thank goodness for The Serial Garden – a compilation of Aiken stories. Nice. Loads of fun. Except for The Serial Garden where I gasped at the ending (TW didn’t find this nearly as troubling as I did) or The Goblin Music where I couldn’t believe the goblin child … well I won’t spoil it for you.
Another great Cybil Middle Grade Fantasy/Science Fiction selection. I have no idea how a winner can be picked from this group. They’re just too bloody good.
