About the Author:
Praise for Diana Wynne Jones
’[Wynne Jones] has a unique record of producing books you can't forget... Every book is different. And every book is likely to be in someone's top seven... I feel we need to acknowledge how lucky those of us are who grew up on her books, and to ensure subsequent generations enjoy the same intense and subtle pleasure.’ The Guardian
“...Her hallmarks include laugh-aloud humour, plenty of magic and imaginative array of alternate worlds. Yet, at the same time, a great seriousness is present in all of her novels, a sense of urgency that links Jones’s most outrageous plots to her readers’ hopes and fears...” Publishers Weekly
“Truly magical – guaranteed to leave you gasping – even hotter than Potter” The Bookseller
“Diana Wynne Jones could teach Stephen King and JK Rowling a thing or two ...” SFX
Diana Wynne Jones spent her childhood in Essex and has been writing fantasy novels for children since 1973. With her unique combination of magic, humour and imagination, she has been enthralling children and adults with her work ever since. She won the Guardian Award in 1977 with Charmed Life, was runner-up for the Children’s Book Award in 1981, and was twice runner-up for the Carnegie Medal. She is married with three sons, and lives in Bristol with her husband.

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. paperback book in good condition, not ex-library. There are no names, clean cream pages, tight binding and clean stiff card covers with corner bumping. When THEY threw Jamie out to the Boundaries he was too shocked to make sense of it. He'd been told he could go Home if he found himself in the right world and gradually he began to work out the logic. Another of Diana Wynne Jones' gripping alternative world stories.
