I have this whole series on paper but never got around to reading it.
Walton's been pretty hit-or-miss for me, ever since THE KING'S PEACE,
which I adored, and its sequal which I thought was pretty meh. I
liked her review collection WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK SO GREAT, and I
always felt like I ought to get more into her work than I actually
did.
