Mara's review of The Game
The Game (Firebird) by Diana Wynne Jones
This was easily one of the weakest books by Diana Wynne Jones, one of my favorite writers. I enjoyed the book, yes, but I didn't come out of it jumping for joy and desperate to push the book on everyone I know. This is unusual!
I think part of the problem is that, although I knew this was a novella, I kept expecting a novel. And so I felt a bit letdown at the end, with a sense of "so that's it?"
Having said all that, this was still enjoyable and well-written (of course!).
