5.0 out of 5 stars Please read this and the rest of the series!, 21 Oct 2001
By A Customer
It is hard to believe that outside of Australia so few people have read the work of Isobelle Carmody, an amazing author - and you don't have to take my word for it, her books and writings have won many awards over the years!
Obernewtyn is the first of the Obernewtyn Chronicles, of the 4 already published it is perhaps the least complicated in terms of plot and character, but that does not make it a lesser book! It is wonderfully descriptive and the characters are all ones you can beleive in and care about or hate as the author wishes.
Don't be put off by some people calling it 'sci-fi' just because it's set in a post apocolyptic world- it's not sci-fi really! It would be better fitting to call it Spectulative Fiction, in the same realms of Phillip Pullman. There is no technology or any unpronouncable names or meaningless new cultures that are impossible to understand in this book. Please read it, even if you don't buy it, get it out of the library or something...please!
