The Chrestomanci books are a great series of books that have yet to reach the big screen. Still an excellent read for all ages because they are so well done.
As a long-term DWJ fan I was delighted to see a new Chrestomanci book, but a little sorry that it is a collection of short stories, two of which I already own. Even so, "Stealer of Souls" is worth the money in itself. Two characters from existing Chrestomanci books, Cat and Tonino fight an evil wizard who wants to become a ten-souled magician, thus making himself even more powerful than Chrestomanci himself. Typically, DWJ doesn't assume they would be friends on sight and, indeed, makes the tension Cat feels an essential part of the plot, and of the moral message. Subtly handled work, funny and exciting by turns. The other stories are also most enjoyable. Not quite vintage Wynne Jones, perhaps, but it goes some way to assuage the thirst for more on Chrestomanci - and it's great to see so many more of her books reissued at the same time. Harry Potter, watch out!
