I don’t normally participate in challenges but I really liked the sound of this one. I’m going to follow Quest the First, which requires me to read at least 5 books that fit somewhere within the Once Upon a Time II criteria, which covers fantasy, folklore, fairy tales and mythology.
The five I’m committing to are:
1. Forests of the Heart by Charles de Lint [6 April]
2. Three Hearts and Three Lions by Poul Anderson [26 May]
3. Going Postal by Terry Pratchett [2 June]
4. Was by Geoff Ryman [19 April]
5. The Faery Reel edited by Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling [6 June]
The deadline is 20th June 2008, and we’ll see how I do.
