Who knew?
Probably lots of people, but I was not one of them until today.
Slow River was on my shelf for years. I am not sure whether or not it still is, and I am quite sure that I have not yet read it. (I went through a phase where I was trying to make room for an ever-growing yarn stash and knitting far more than I was reading, so I overdid it with culling the library. Plenty of books have not been missed, and it was fine to send them to other homes. Others were a mistake to release. Live and learn.)
Today I read her Big Idea entry and learned that she also writes stories about magic — the old, wild magic of Britain and Wales.
As a result, Hild and Spear are now on my reading list. Spear is new and easily had. Hild is not and will require a bit more effort.
There is more to say, but I am extremely tired, and I must be up much earlier than usual tomorrow morning, so more will have to wait. In the meantime, click the links and amuse yourselves.
Good night.
