Over Sea, Under Stone (The Dark is Rising, #1)Over Sea, Under Stone by Susan Cooper
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1965. Fantasy YA.

I honestly didn't know what to expect, only knowing that this was theoretically an old-time classic.

After reading, I feel like I had just had a light grail-type adventure keeping much closer to home than Narnia and not nearly so enormous. Indeed, these mystery-fiction type kids were pretty cozy.

Light, fun adventure. The adults are either super nice or lightly creepy -- until they're worse. :)

The writing is the best part. Solid.
