I have to admit,
I'm appalling with names. Give me J.K. Rowling and I'll still be hesitant
to claim she's the one who wrote Harry Potter in case I'm wrong (seriously who
wants to screw up a fact like that?) So I may have come across Alan Garner,
or I may have not... either way it's time for Google
Children's fantasy novels...
retellings of traditional British folk tales... if his wikipedia page is
anything to go by then I'm feeling a little more excited. Don't get me wrong, I
was already looking forward to seeing a published novelist, especially
when it's just a five - ten minute walk from my front door, but when his books
seem just a little more suited to my taste it adds that hint more of
anticipation
So roll on Alan Garner, you have my
interest piqued.
