gramarye1971,
phoenixchilde and
neenie (as well as various NY associates), I mentioned that I had been thinking of writing up the Massive Diana Wynne Jones Complete Recommendation Post of Ultimate Doom. Fools that they are, they encouraged me! THEREFORE: I present to you a Full and Complete Roundup of Diana Wynne Jones Novels, for the guidance of all of those people out there who inexplicably have not yet obsessively hunted down and read everything she has ever written, and would like to know where to begin or continue.
This is part one of two, covering DWJ one-off novels; the second post (coming soon! Probably!) will be an overview of all of DWJ's series books.
( Archer's Goon )
( Black Maria )
( Dogsbody )
( Eight Days of Luke )
( Fire and Hemlock )
( The Game )
( Hexwood )
( The Homeward Bounders )
( The Ogre Downstairs )
( Power of Three )
( A Tale of Time City )
( The Time of the Ghost )
I read A Sudden Wild Magic but don't remember liking it particularly, and I haven't read Changeover, so I'm not going to talk about them here (cheating, I know) but if anyone has, and wants to chime in with Why They're Awesome, please absolutely feel free!
NEXT ROUND: Series books!
