Watching the football. Commentator: 'This is classic Arsenal, here'

No it's not! They're being interesting!

Did anyone else know Neil Gaiman wrote a book based on Howl's Moving Castle? He even got Diana Wynne Jones to have a read through before he finished it. I'm kind of amazed. That was my favourite book when I was a kid & he's made a really good job of it.

Neil was today at Forbidden Planet, & I only found out yesterday, so no to that one. I don't know what Pterry's going to do (but I did buy Thud last week). I know you can't stomach Diana Wynne Jones (I couldn't stand Lives of Christopher Chant, myself), but try Stardust by Neil.

I can't believe I've never heard of this before! What's the book called?

It's called Stardust, & it's about what happens when you catch a falling star. I definitely recommend it!
