Alan Garner was born and still lives in Cheshire, an area which has had a profound effect on his writing and provided the seed of many ideas worked out in his books.
His fourth book, ‘The Owl Service’ brought Alan Garner to everyone’s attention. It won two important literary prizes – The Guardian Award and the Carnegie Medal – and was made into a serial by Granada Television. It has established itself as a classic and Alan Garner as a writer of great distinction.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. Jacket by George Adamson Ilustrador. 1st Edition. First published in 1963, this is a second impression of 1966. some slight edge wear and rubbing to top and bottom of jacket and spine, spine very very slightly faded, corners very slightly rubbed, not price clipped (12s 6d), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy for its age. 160pp. Had Colin and Susan known that the Eve of Gomrath is the time of the year at which the Old Magic is most likely to be aroused, they would never have lit a fire on the Beacon. The realisation that their blaze is giving off no heat is only the last in a line of eerie discoveries, for already Susan has suffered strangely at the hands of a black and formless evil and rumour has it that the hideous Morrigan has left her haunts in the bleak northern waters to bring death and destruction to pleasanter lands. As the elves and dwarfs come swiftly to the caves of Fundindelve, home of the wizard Cadellin Silverbrow, to seek council for the coming struggle, more fearsome forces are gathering in the woods on Alderley Edge, and they, too, are preparing for battle. The sequel to 'The Weirdstone of Brisingamen' and one of the best children's stories ever written, exceptionally scarce in this very early impression. Nº de ref. del artículo: 010145
