INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Jones, Diana Wynne

House of Many Ways

(2) 4-6 In High Norland, adjacent to Ingary (Howl's Moving Castle), Charmain Baker becomes guardian of her great-uncle's house. She and his apprentice are challenged by angry kobolds and a malicious lubbock, but Charmain uses her library assistant experience to face the threats. Jones's comic pacing and wit are amply evident. Enchantress Sophie and Wizard Howl make a short appearance.
