The Chrestomanci Series by Diana Wynne Jones

REVIEWS OF :

CONRAD'S FATE
"Devotees will pounce on this sixth title in the series. In this Chrestomanci tale, the nine-lived enchanter Christopher, who fans will remember from other books, appears as a dapper and self-possessed 15-year-old. With Wynne Jones’ characteristic skill at plotting, the finale is a whirlwind of revealed alter-identities and just desserts for villains, ending with as many satisfying romantic pairings as a Shakespeare comedy"

"A wild romp with a fast-paced and satisfying conclusion."
STARRED KIRKUS REVIEW

"Hilariously droll and totally heartfelt at the same time. Witty, satisfying,
a must for all Jones fans."
SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL

"Magic, mystery and snortingly funny slapstick."
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

WITCH WEEK
"WITCH WEEK is the third book in Diana Wynne Jones's Chrestomanci Chronicles series. An anonymous note to the teacher of class 6B announces:
'Someone in this class is a witch'. With those words the tale is off and flying...
A wonderful fantasy from one the genre's best practitioners."
STARRED REVIEW SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL

"Jones skilfully and seamlessly switches from one point of view to another, creating a comic companion piece to LORD OF THE FLIES as she shows with perfect understanding the way children torment each other--and save each other".
