Nouveau roman de la dame en question, sortant ces jours-ci outre-atlantique:
The Merlin Conspiracy dans le même univers que
Deep Secret Un petit résumé :
The islands of Blest keep the balance of magic in half the multiverse. If something goes wrong with the magic on Blest, it will have a ripple effect on many other worlds. Something is about to go wrong … It all begins when the Merlin of Blest dies of a heart attack. Or was he murdered by sorcery? Two friends, Roddy and Grundo, suspect a conspiracy, but no adult will believe them. When a boy from another world, Nick, blunders into the trouble on Blest, Roddy tries to enlist his help. But what can three children who are just discovering their magical talents do against the new Merlin, the Earthmistress, and the dark powers they’re calling up? The dangers are great, and if Roddy, Grundo, and Nick fail to stop the conspirators before they disrupt the balance of magic, the results will be far more far-reaching and destructive than they can imagine.
Et puis, en bonus, l'avis sur Mme Jones d'un auteur plus connu dans ce forum:
“Diana Wynne Jones is, quite simply, the best writer of magic there is, for readers of any age.”--Neil Gaiman, author of Coraline
