Oh not again
Saturday, August 21st, 2021 07:33 pmBlack water breaking into reality.
So I'm reading Joan Aiken's Wolf Chronicles, largely in eformat, and I get to one that starts with Wicked Wolf Magnus being carted off to prison while his annulled wife readies to marry either Prince or King Richard and I think 'no, this is way past where I am in the timeline' and send it back to the eshelf and pick up the next Dido book. Now I've finished with Is, the next volume is Midwinter Nightingale where WWM is being let out of prison. 'Oh,' think I, 'must go back and read the first book about him.' Only there isn't one. Not in the list of Wolves chronicles, not in the library, certainly not an ebook in Libby. And I must have read it in eform because that's the only place I could have read it.
The only solution I can think of is that it's a short story in one of the collections-- but it's not in either collection available through Libby, both of which I've read. Or else I hallucinated an unwritten Joan Aiken somehow.
