Polly has two sets of memories.... One is normal: school, home, friends. The other, stranger memories begin nine years ago, when she was 10 and gate-crashed an odd funeral in the mansion near her grandmother's house. Polly's just beginning to recall the sometimes marvelous, sometimes frightening adventures she embarked on with Tom Lynn after that. And then she did something terrible, and everything changed. But what did she do? Why can't she remember? Polly must uncover the secret, or her true love - and perhaps Polly herself - will be lost.

Fourteen-year-old Mona isn't like the wizards charged with defending the city. She can't control lightning or speak to water. Her familiar is a sourdough starter, and her magic only works on bread. She has a comfortable life in her aunt's bakery making gingerbread men dance. But Mona's life is turned upside down when she finds a dead body on the bakery floor. An assassin is stalking the streets of Mona's city, preying on magic folk, and it appears that Mona is his next target. And in an embattled city suddenly bereft of wizards, the assassin may be the least of Mona's worries.

Zaria was just a normal woman, living a simple life—until demons burst through her door and ate her heart. Reborn from tragedy, Zaria rises from the ashes as a Core, but with a twist. A rare mutation has turned her into a Mutant Core, destined to explode unless she forms a bond with a human witch to become a Striga. Her mutation? Legs. With the power of a full dungeon compressed into a walking house that is her body, Zaria sets out on a journey to find her Striga and avoid detonation. Along the way, she battles demons, builds her dungeon, and feeds her mimic mobs.

Polly has two sets of memories.... One is normal: school, home, friends. The other, stranger memories begin nine years ago, when she was 10 and gate-crashed an odd funeral in the mansion near her grandmother's house. Polly's just beginning to recall the sometimes marvelous, sometimes frightening adventures she embarked on with Tom Lynn after that. And then she did something terrible, and everything changed. But what did she do? Why can't she remember? Polly must uncover the secret, or her true love - and perhaps Polly herself - will be lost.

Asher Todd comes to live with the mysterious Morwood family as a governess to their children. Asher knows little about being a governess but she is skilled in botany and herbcraft, and perhaps more than that. And she has secrets of her own, dark and terrible—and Morwood is a house that eats secrets. With a monstrous revenge in mind, Asher plans to make it choke. However, she becomes fond of her charges, of the people of the Tarn, and she begins to wonder if she will be able to execute her plan—and who will suffer most if she does.

It's a ploy to lure a heroic knight so that he will fight the dragon, marry Creel out of chivalrous obligation, and lift the entire family out of poverty. Creel isn't worried. After all, nobody has seen a dragon in centuries. But when the beast actually appears, Creel not only bargains with him for her life, she also ends up with a rare bit of treasure from his hoard: a pair of simple blue slippers, or so she thinks.

The city of Bulikov once wielded the powers of the gods to conquer the world, enslaving and brutalizing millions - until its divine protectors were killed. Now Bulikov has become just another colonial outpost of the world's new geopolitical power, but the surreal landscape of the city itself - first shaped, now shattered, by the thousands of miracles its guardians once worked upon it - stands as a constant, haunting reminder of its former supremacy. Into this broken city steps Shara Thivani.

Excellent Read
This has been a favorite book of mine for decades since I was a small child. The characters are fun, world building fantastic. Hits a bit harder as an adult, though.
The reading brings the story to life in a very satisfying way.

fantastic... mostly.
DWJ was one of my favorite authors when I was younger, and this book is a huge part of the reason why. I loved the driving plot, the big reveal near the end, etc. as an adult, I love the chapter where everything becomes too much and a character just sits down for... weeks? bc trauma.
I'm less thrilled about the narrator, and how he puts an emphasis on squawking the gryphons' lines, rather than showing any kind of emotion for them-- which really does them a disservice.
on the book itself, I'm also not so keen on .. spoilers beyond this point.
okay so. not so thrilled with how everything is wrapped up in a neat little bow, rapidfire, in a single scene. it feels too convenient. this is a hallmark of DWJ's books if I recall, and I think I loved the salvo of things coming together as a kid, but now it just doesn't sit right.

So happy audible has this book now !
For everyone who has ever read or watched fantasy or ever been to Ren fairs it’s especially funny if you think about Rene Faire . It’s such a great family story too perfect for family road trips .
This is one of my all time favorite books the reader did a great job at the voices for the different characters! I always thought this was the best Diana Wynne Jones book to start people with it’s so fun and it’s a good one to start with

This is such a terrific book - so well told with a story that is quite well thought-out and so so funny. DWJ takes many of the tropes of fantasy and incorporates them in the most inventive and humorous way. Truly a masterpiece.
