Really feel like the book shoulda began with "Cat really admired his sister. But she was a bitch." rather than she was a witch, cuz I couldn't staaaand Gwendolyn.
I have always been surprised that, with the exception of the Studio Ghibli movie, Diane Wyne Jones books haven't been picked up for movie or tv series. They rival - and in my opinion are superior to - anything by JK Rowling. Then again, I can see they would struggle to make this story at least. It would go completely against the Hollywood agenda with the sister being the villain and the brother being the next in line for the post of the worlds premier magician.
I can't be the only one who adores Gwen, can I ? Crap food, no magic, smug castle folk... it'd be enough to drive Ghandi to crack open the dragon's blood.
I came here from Howls Moving Castle.
