John O. (buzzby) - , reviewed on + 6062 more book reviews
A tween who lives in a windowless room under cupboard with a spoiled companion in the house, a slightly over-the-hill wizard, a secret passageway to another world located in a train station...sound familiar? All written before HP. In fact, if JK Rowling wasn't firmly ensconced in the Pantheon of Great Writers, I'd say that there's some plaigerism going on. Ibbotson's characters are a lot sillier than JK's, and aren't quite as tome-like, but it should appeal to the same audience. It's a lot like Island of the Aunts.
