Oh! There are Janet Chant books coming?? Yay!! I'm SO glad you're plugged into this stuff, 'cause i am not.

What did you think of Pinhoe Egg? I forget if we talked about this already. I think she does some really great things with Marianne, tho' there are still certainly BIG issues with women: Gammer is wretched (understandably so, but only to a certain point), Marianne's mother is ineffective, and Millie is just too ... womanish and domesticated for my tastes -- all comments i make off of my year-old recollection of the book, so please assume there's a margin of error. ;) Also, i both disliked and was inordinately charmed by Marianne discovering her powers because Cat points her in the right direction. I disliked it because i hated having the girl shown The Way by the boy, but i was kinda charmed by it 'cause i like Cat.
