to be persnickety, I shall point out that it is not Margaret Mahy, not Margaret Mahey. *obnoxious grin*
ME: Ovid! Metamorphoses! I am wracked with guilt! I must go forth and translate 40 lines of Perseus & Andromeda immediately! *does so* AHAHAHAHA, Perseus is such a tool.
did you really? I am, as usual, impressed with your proficiency. ^_^
The Arthur trilogy (The Seeing Stone, At the Crossing-Places, King of the Middle March) by Kevin Crossley-Holland. I really want to read Gatty’s Tale now, which caught my eye even before I was told to read these for Research Purposes. Also, I have forced my boss to read The Mists of Avalon for Research Purposes. I am so evil.
what are these research purposes? I've thought the Crosseley-Holland books looked interesting, but I don't think I'm over my no-more-Arthuriana-stories-please phase. I don't at all mind if Arthuriana finds its way into other stories (such as Elizabeth Bear's Promethean Age books), and this one looks like it might get past my twitch-council. hrm.
I love George Macdonald so. <3 and of course Lloyd Alexander.
