The Lives of Christopher Chant by Diana Wynne Jones

' mgkn bakal lebih seru klo baca buku sebelumnya dulu ' - ayanapunya, ' I really like Diana Wynne Jones and her creativity. ' This was my first Diana Wynne Jones book, and the one that made me crave more of her writing. ' The goddess with her cats is so awesome. ' For me, this is her best book after HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE. ' Great fun! I think I like this best of the Chrestomanci books I've read so far. Utterly delightful Jones was doing Harry Potter way before Harry was ever thought of. ' Although this is billed as #2 it really is the first in the series, since it is the childhood of Christopher Chant. ' A real crowd-pleaser - everybody in the family loved this one. In case you were wondering, no, you do not have to read any of the Chrestomanci books in order.

I like how the book had a great twist with who is good and who is bad getting switched up. Christopher has 'dream' traveled to other realities since he was young but as he gets older and people begin to find out about his abilities, complications arise. This is a prequel to the first book, though it really does need to be read after the first one, not before. 'Lives of Christopher Chant was much more adventure-filled than the first Chrestomanci book. Gerard Doyle's spellbinding narration is sure to capture every listener's attention. However, he does possess something that most humans do not. He can't perform spells or do anything magical. Internationally acclaimed author Diana Wynne Jones has written several children's novels.
