Once Upon a Time VIII – wash-up post

How on earth did that happen? Suddenly here we are on 22 June, and Once Upon a Time VIII is over for another year. 😦

I planned to attempt Quest the First as outlined in my post here.

Sadly, I only managed two of the five books I hoped to read, and started a third. I will persevere with the others as I really want to read them and would hate to see them on the list for next year’s challenge.

The two I managed to read (with links to my thoughts) were:

• The Boy with the Cuckoo Clock Heart by Mathias Malzieu –
• Voice of our Shadow by Jonathan Carroll

I still plan to re-read The Songs of Earth and Power by Greg Bear because it’s awesome.

Must start thinking about books for RIP IX; September will be with us before you know it!
