Алан Гарнер - культовый автор, чьи фэнтези-романы стоят в ряду с произведениями Толкиена и Льюиса. Может быть, его истории чуть наивнее, но это и делает их такими бесконечно обаятельными и уютными. И еще то, что эльфами, гномами, ведьмами, гоблинами и чародеями Алан населил окрестности своего родного Чешира. Там где прошло его детство (где он живет и сейчас), кельтские мифы переплетаются с современностью: ведьма попытается затащить вас в свой автомобиль, подколодная нечисть попробует поймать в сети, а храбрый гном может стать верным другом • …Колин и Сьюзен приезжают в гости к старой няне Бесс и ее мужу.
