BBC podcast version, enough of a taster to want to read properly next year.
The story of Will Stanton and The Old Ones is an enthralling, snowy Christmas quest full of cryptids and dark magic. Definitely a fun read! My only criticism are the week female human characters, which read more like nuisances than anything else.
