《迷宮小屋》
 
📚 魔法師霍爾系列的最後一部小説
🧙‍♀ 奇幻大師 Diana Wynne Jones 力作!
🤯 與電影塑造的人物性格不同,你敢相信霍爾其實是個超級幼稚鬼嗎?
 
在面對了種種的難題後,蘇菲,霍爾和卡西火也終於回到了幸福平穩的生活....才怪!
在 Diana Wayne Jones 的霍爾系列,你會看到幼稚鬼霍爾和經常抓狂幫忙收拾爛攤子的蘇菲,
那麼在這次的故事裡,他們又將扮演怎樣的角色呢?
這次故事的主角是備受父母保護的女孩 Charmain,在一次探訪她生病的叔叔時,她糊里糊塗地接下了替叔叔打理他的小屋的任務。原以爲這只是一個輕鬆的舉手之勞,但 Charmain 萬萬想不到,她的叔叔竟然是宮廷法師,他的小屋自然是一棟魔法小屋!除了打理魔法小屋時鬧得雞飛狗跳,Charmain 甚至被名叫 lubbock 的可怕生物盯上了;更糟的是,國王陛下要求 Charmain 幫忙尋找一種神奇的力量,並派一位可怕的法師蘇菲來幫忙...到底 Charmain 可不可以尋獲成功的同時順利自保呢?
 
When Charmain Baker agreed to look after her great-uncle’s house, she thought she was getting blissful, parent-free time to read. She didn’t realize that the house bent space and time, and she did not expect to become responsible for an extremely magical stray dog and a muddled young apprentice wizard.
Now, somehow, she’s been targeted by a terrifying creature called a lubbock, too, and become central to the king’s urgent search for the fabled Elfgift that will save the country. The king is so desperate to find the Elfgift, he’s called in an intimidating sorceress named Sophie to help. And where Sophie is, the great Wizard Howl and fire demon Calcifer won’t be far behind.
How did respectable Charmain end up in such a mess, and how will she get herself out of it?
作者介紹
Diana Wynne Jones
 
In a career spanning four decades, award-winning author Diana Wynne Jones wrote more than forty books of fantasy for young readers. Characterized by magic, multiple universes, witches and wizards—and a charismatic nine-lived enchanter—her books were filled with unlimited imagination, dazzling plots, and an effervescent sense of humor that earned her legendary status in the world of fantasy. From the very beginning, Diana Wynne Jones’s books garnered literary accolades: her novel Dogsbody was a runner-up for the 1975 Carnegie Medal, and Charmed Life won the esteemed Guardian children’s fiction prize in 1977. Since then, in addition to being translated into more than twenty languages, her books have earned a wide array of honors—including two Boston Globe-Horn Book Award Honors—and appeared on countless best-of-the-year lists. Her work also found commercial success: in 1992 the BBC adapted her novel Archer’s Goon into a six-part miniseries, and her best-selling Howl’s Moving Castle was made into an animated film by Japanese director Hayao Miyazaki in 2004. The film was nominated for an Academy Award in 2006, and became one of the most financially successful Japanese films in history. The author herself has also been honored with many prestigious awards for the body of her work. She was given the British Fantasy Society’s Karl Edward Wagner Award in 1999 for having made a significant impact on fantasy, received a D.Lit from Bristol University in 2006, and won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the World Fantasy Convention in 2007.
