Anyway, that aside, I can say I really liked the book. I don't think it would be quite the same for a kid, though. This isn't a bad thing necessarily, but it makes it harder for me to follow, and for some reason it doesn't hold my interest quite as much in some parts. The fantasy worlds seem this way, as well-and I guess from what happened, this makes complete sense. The adult characters in her pure fantasy stories totally cater to the fantasy settings, as well, and often seem like a part of the child's imagination.

When she writes in pure fantasy mode, she tends to go faster and introduce more characters more quickly.

Nesbit's fantasy that has a grounding in the real world most. I liked the ideas in it, and the story was cool.With the exception of /The Book of Dragons/, and her other short fiction, I think I prefer E.
