'The Night Of The Round Stable' takes classic elements of
children's literature and brings them bang up to date. Outraged by
plans to build a factory farm on the edge of their town, Johanna
and her brother Harry set out to stymie the junk food magnate
behind it. They meet the magical but overconfident Mr Phigg, who
has his own reasons for helping them - and manage to paper over the
cracks in some of his dodgier schemes. Part of the story takes
place in the Greyworld we know, part in a more colourful parallel
reality. There are hidden doorways, amazing inventions and talking
animals, set against an unmistakeably contemporary background of
animal welfare, protest marches and corruption - with both thrills
and fun as events in the two worlds gradually converge.
