The Game (Firebird)

A delightfully sharp novella by the legendary Diana Wynne Jones.

Hayleyâ€™s parents disappeared when she was a baby. Since then, she has been raised and homeschooled by her grandparents. Grandad is overworked and travels a lot; Grandma is much too strict and never lets her meet any children her own age. When Hayley does something wrongâ€”she is not quite sure whatâ€”they pack her off to her aunts in Ireland. To Hayleyâ€™s shock, her family is much bigger than she thought; to her delight, the children all play what they call â€œthe game,â€ where they visit a place called â€œthe mythosphere.â€ And while she plays the game, Hayley learns more about her own place in the world than she had ever expected. This original novella by Diana Wynne Jones is sharply funny, fast-paced, and surprising until its very endâ€”like all of this acclaimed authorâ€™s work.
