Carbonel: The King of the Cats
Barbara Sleigh@jamesbennett.bsky.social ON HERE FOR FCON🏳️🌈@EnigmaticElegy It's due for a rewatch today. The film led me to Mary Norton and 'The Borrowers', which in turn led me to 'Carbonel' by Barbara Sleigh and on to Joan Aitken. Some very early reads that started my love of contemporary Fantasy. They all have that quirky vein. 😊

The Song of Achilles
Madeline Miller@jamesbennett.bsky.social ON HERE FOR FCON🏳️🌈Finished my review of 'Sundial'. This morning I cracked open 'The Song of Achilles' by Madeline Miller. Not my usual taste in terms of rep, but the mythological aspect appeals and it's pretty good so far.
