Diana Wynne Jones, 1934-2011

Ave atque vale. She brought light to a great many people.

Diana Wynne Jones was never my favorite author, which makes me think I've not read the right ones out of her books--of the few (five?) I have read, I liked The Spellcoats and The Crown of Dalemark best, for very different reasons. I've seen appreciations for Dogsbody and Fire and Hemlock today; what's your favorite DWJ novel?

Neil Gaiman wrote on his blog that he has to write an intro to Dogsbody...so it must be reprinting sometime in the future. <3

Yeah, I saw that. I'll definitely try to pick up that edition, given that they were apparently quite close.
