Handing Down Books

[qos]

Wolfling came to me this evening looking for a book to read. I took her into my library and introduced her to some of my favorites.

She's about to start The Summer Tree, by Guy Gavriel Kay, the first book of The Fionavar Tapestry.

I am gleeful.

My Wolfling is about to start reading one of my favorite series by one of my all-time, buy-his-books-in-hardback, favorite authors.

I had this one for quite a while before I started reading it. My sister had given me a used paperback copy as a gift for being her maid of honor at her wedding -- which I had considered pretty tacky. I often don't like books about people crossing into fantasy worlds. But this one, once I got through the first pages, really grabbed me -- and the entire series is lovely.
