"In a singularly important publishing even, the first complete collection of Aiken's 24 beloved Armitage cycle of stories appears here for the first time. The family who dwells in and out of magical worlds transcends fantasy and enters the world of classic, entrancing literature. Joan Aiken (1924-2004) wrote over a hundred books and won the Guardian and Edgar Allan Poe awards. After her first husband's death, she supported her family by copyediting at "Argosy" magazine and an advertising agency before turning to fiction. She went on to write for "Vogue," "Good Housekeeping," "Vanity Fair," "Argosy," "Women's Own," and many others.
