I Enchanted Glass already bought and read a hardcover copy of this excellent book, but I like Steven Crossley's reading so much that I bought the audiobook too. Diana Wynne Jones's books are a convincing blend of magic and ordinary life. Her characters are clearly drawn and memorable, The villains are menacing, and the good guys are charming, including the rather dangerous young giant who's filled with glee because his new clothes have zippers. Even the good guys don't always agree for example, there's a prolonged silent contest over the arrangement of furniturebut we get to see friendship, humor, and loyalty among people willing to go out of their way to help each other. Would you listen to Enchanted Glass again? I enjoyed the voice, characters and story very much and would like to revisit Enchanted Glass another time. What was one of the most memorable moments of Enchanted Glass? Andrew visits Aidan's foster family and discovers that the story is Enchanted Glass complicated than he had realized. Which character — as performed by Steven Crossley — was your favorite? While I liked most of the characters, Andrew - a person of magical talents, Enchanted Glass not seeking after Enchanted Glass, with, instead, a sense of responsibility and a passion for history, definitely Enchanted Glass my sympathies the most. Any additional comments? This is a delightful story - suitable for children and adults. I want Enchanted Glass start by saying that I am a Diana Wynne Jones fan. But her books are always a hit or miss Enchanted Glass me. I loved some of her books but I couldn't get into some of the others. I knew I was taking a gamble. I Enchanted Glass bought the hard cover but I Enchanted Glass have time to read it, so I downloaded the audible. The book was whimsical like all the other DWJ books, with goofy characters, and silly villains. But what the heck was it about? What was the plot? Who was Enchanted Glass main character? First, you have Andrew, who has a weird experience on his way to his grandfather's, who he finds out is dead.
