The Dark Lord of Derkholm

An odd duck of a book following a father and son duo stuck in the middle of a fantasy world being manipulated and exploited in what seems quite like a contemporary "real" world. Solid world building, interesting characters, surprisingly dark things handled with DWJ's deft whimsy. I forgot how much I enjoy it.

Denser than Crestomanci and Howl's, and also not as enjoyable. Lots of moving parts and hard to connect with the many characters. Writing is still well done
