Ep 43: Uncontextual pineapple with Catriona Silvey
Recorded live at EasterCon in Belfast at 9:30am on Easter Sunday! Please forgive my wheeziness; I was coming down with a chest infection.
Catriona’s choice: The Silver Crown by Robert C. O’ Brien
Ali’s choice: Dread Wood by Jennifer Killick
We discuss Robert C. O’ Brien’s better-known books, Z for Zachariah and Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. You may like to listen to the episode The Anti- Reepicheep League with Ang Rosin about Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH and The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents here.
We also mention The Demon Headmaster by Gillian Cross; Russell Smith selected it as his Fantasy Book Swap choice.
Jennifer Killick was a guest on the fantastic podcast about children’s books, The Island of Brilliant.
I am not a shill for The Phoenix Comic, I promise.
Catch up with Catriona via her website, https://catrionasilvey.com/index.html
Join us at EasterCon next year in Birmingham!
