K. P. Bath

We held off on reviewing author K.P. Bath until we were sure that there was going to be a sequel to his first book, The Secret of Castle Cant. It’s not that we didn’t love The Secret of Castle Cant—we did—but we felt that it would be morally wrong for us to recommend a book that ends with such a cliffhanger without knowing that there were to be future books in the series. Now that we’ve been told of the upcoming Escape from Castle Cant, we strongly encourage any Joan Aiken fans out there to check out this up-and-coming fantasy talent.
