A bit heavier than the next book in the series (makes sense that it was influenced by Jansson’s feelings during the second world war), but I think the subjects are handled well. And the characters are fantastic of course. Hugh Dennis read the audiobook well, and I love the cover designs for this edition of the series.

I always love reading the lingo in books from pre-1960s 'cause you get gems like Snufkin repeatedly referring to himself as a 'tramp'.
