‘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

Not only is this a great story, like basically all by Diana Wynne Jones, the Narrator is just perfect for it.
The way she speaks the different characters is very fitting and atmospheric, highly recommend!

Amazing Story, Amazing Narrator

I love, love, love this audiobook! Diana Wynne Jones is (was) a great author, this novel is simply a gem (lovable, relatable main characters, whimsical, witty story) and Kristin Athertons performance as its narrator is outstanding. She also has a such a lovely, mellow voice that you’ll want to listen to this audiobook and hear her voice again and again…

Wonderful, wonderful story and audiobook

I've read and listened to it after loving the Ghibli movie for years, as it turns out, the book is even better than the movie!
A charming story of fun, flawed characters learning to stand up for themselves and each other while embracing who they are and overcoming insecurities.

It's easy to imagine that the portrayal of Howl in the movie might be how the Howell of the book would tell it on occasions when Sophie isn't around to correct him.

Lovely story for children and adults alike
