‘One of the greatest ever writers for children’ – Garth Nix

‘A true original’ – Katherine Rundell

‘Truly magical … Guaranteed to leave you gasping’ The Bookseller

‘She is the best writer of magical fantasy for children’ Evening Standard

In the land of Ingary, where seven league boots and invisibility cloaks exist, young Sophie Hatter catches the unwelcome attention of the Witch of the Waste and is put under a spell . . .

Deciding she has nothing more to lose, Sophie makes her way to the moving castle that hovers on the hills above her town, Market Chipping. But the castle belongs to the dreaded Wizard Howl, whose appetite, they say, is satisfied only by the souls of young girls…

There Sophie meets Michael, Howl’s apprentice, and Calcifer the fire demon, with whom she agrees a pact. Her entanglements with Calcifer, Howl and Michael and her quest to break her curse come alive with Diana Wynne Jones’s unique combination of magic, humour and imagination.

"One of the greatest ever writers for children" – Garth Nix
"A true original" – Katherine Rundell
“Imaginative and terribly funny” – Michael Morpurgo
THE TELEGRAPH – 100 Best Books a Child Should Read
“Wit and humor glint from the pages" – THE HORN BOOK
Praise for Diana Wynne Jones
“…Her hallmarks include laugh-aloud humour, plenty of magic and imaginative array of alternate worlds. Yet, at the same time, a great seriousness is present in all of her novels, a sense of urgency that links Jones’s most outrageous plots to her readers’ hopes and fears…” – Publishers Weekly
“Diana Wynne Jones ought to be crowned with coloured garlands because she is the best writer of magical fantasy for children in this country ” – Evening Standard
“Diana Wynne Jones could teach Stephen King and JK Rowling a thing or two … [she] has a skill for inserting just the right amount of detail in her written words, leaving you satiated but not stuffed.” – SFX

I can only agree with the other reviews: The narrator did an awesome job reading all those characters. I loved Howl's accent

Beautifully written and read

I’m a big fan of the movie and decided to get the book as well. The movie is very different from the book, but I still enjoyed the story very much.

Lovely story

I bought this audiobook yesterday and finished it today.
The narrator is just amazing, her voice fits perfectly, she uses differnt voices for different characters and usually I don't like it very much but she just pull sit off.
The book itself has a wonderful storyline, that ends just as well as it starts. The characters all seem like real humans with their flaws and their good points. I fell in love with them and I am looking forward to the other 2 books from the series. I hope they are going to get released on Audible soon. In the meantime I will listen to the other books for Diana. Because this book convinced me that she is an amazing author!

Amazing narrator - amazing book you can't put away

If you came to listen to the story due to Studio Ghiblis movie, you are in for a treat. The story is vibrant with life and humor, the characters are hilarious and the plot itself even if similar in certain aspects still will surprise you with its twists. A definite recommendation for lovers of a tale that will keep you laughing and cackling at times.

Full of life
