The Tough Guide to Fantasyland: The Essential Guide to Fantasy Travel
Diana Wynne Jones
Puffin
, 2006
Very very funny, and useful, too!
I don't recommend sitting down and reading this front-to-back in order, but it's fun to sit and flip through the pages, wandering from one entry to another. The basic idea is that this is a travel guide to the typical sword-and-sorcery fantasy world. Most clichés and ...

Outstanding fantasy books, fresh approach to magic and well written.
I found this book listed on the internet in a blog about books to read if you were suffering from Harry Potter withdrawals. Well, I wasn't - but I was still interested in good fantasy fiction. So I gave this one a try and was very pleasantly surprised. A ...

Howl's Moving Castle
In the land of Ingary, it is considered a great misfortune to be born the eldest of three. It means that you are destined to fail, no matter what you do, and Sophie Hatter, a meek little hat shop owner's daughter, firmly believes in this. She herself is the oldest of ...

great book
This book is an easy and entertaining read. Originally purchased to give to my daughter for her 7th birthday as she is doing accelerated reading, and wanted to proof it for myself. I think I will hold it for her next birthday as 7 might be a bit too young but that ...
The Chronicles of Chrestomanci, Volume 2: The Magicians of Caprona / Witch Week

The Sequel is my son's favorite
We first heard of Diana Wynne Jones through the animated Japanese film, "Howl's Moving Castle." That film is excellent. But her books are so much better. I have not liked all her books, but the Chrestomanci volumes one and two are superb. This book was my 16 year ...
The Pinhoe Egg (Chrestomanci Books)
Diana Wynne Jones
Eos
, 2007
A very good Chrestomanci story
'The Pinhoe Egg' is the latest must-read book in the Chrestomanci series that blends the well-known and loved characters from 'Charmed Life' with a new colourful gallery of witches, enchanters and magical creatures. Diana Wynne Jones gives all her usual best to make ...
The Chronicles of Chrestomanci, Volume III (Chronicles of Chrestomanci)

Tales of the Chrestomanci
Long before Harry Potter was even dreamed of, Diana Wynne Jones was penning stories about her magical alternate worlds, and the nine-lived enchanter Chrestomanci. Fortuntely, the last few years have seen a return for Chrestomanci. "The Chronicles of Chrestomanci, ...
Conrad's Fate (A Chrestomanci Book)
Diana Wynne Jones
Eos
, 2006
A review for adults who still like kids' lit
Finally, a Chrestomanci story that deals with young Christopher, rather than dealing with Cat (when Christopher is the grown-up Chrestomanci). I have been quite intrigued with Christopher and Millie since reading "The Lives of Christopher Chant" about, oh, 10 years ...
Witch's Business (Chrestomanci Books)
Diana Wynne Jones
Greenwillow
, 2002
An Early DWJ Title
From the previous review I think this was the book published in the UK as Wilkins Tooth. It's a fun story about two children who run a 'Revenge Service' to make some pocket money. As you would expect in a childrens book the scheme backfires. It reminds me of 'Ogre ...
Year of the Griffin
Diana Wynne Jones
HarperTeen
, 2001
Wow!
I really enjoyed this book. Whilst I do think that the end of the book was rather sketchy...literally, in that the author didn't wrap things up properly, I really enjoyed the rest of the book. I've read this book a couple of times through the years, and I find it ...
Dark Lord of Derkholm
Diana Wynne Jones
HarperTeen
, 2001
A Great Fantasy - very funny, while being an exciting page turner
I was shocked to see several truely awful reviews for a book I consider a masterpiece. It is very funny, while at the same time utterly gripping. Certainly the fact that it is simultainously a spoof and a high fantasy confuses some readers, but that is the delight of ...
Dogsbody
Diana Wynne Jones
HarperTrophy
, 2001
Trapped in a Dog's Body
When Sirius, the Dog Star, is falsely accused of a crime he didn't commit, his penance is to inhabit the body of a dog on the planet Earth until he can prove his innocence. In Dogsbody (Greenwillow Books, 1977) by Diana Wynne Jones, the once-powerful Sirius must adjust ...
