gillothen 's review for:
A Sudden Wild Magic
by Diana Wynne Jones
Re-reading in advance of the 2019 DWJ Conference in Bristol.
Not one of her best, but interesting to see how she adapts her techniques to an older intended audience. For some reason my British edition has US language and spelling.
In many ways part of the canon in using the multiple universe idea, though her suspicion of bureaucracy and officialdom comes through even more strongly - more like magids than Chrestomanci in tone, though with a similar level of threat to the multiverse of Hexwood. Most noticeable for an adorable, determined small boy with superb fractured English.
