Call Me a Dreamer

I'd never read Blaylock before, but somehow I feel I remember paging through his stuff back when I was 9! I'm adding it to my Amazon order right now actually... I have a fondness for fantasy with a cheeky twist, and from what Wiki describes, this looks like I'd love it. The synopsis already has me giggling. I'm down to reading books on investing (gack!!) now that I've finished the Gormenghast novels, so I'm digging up old classic fantasy books I should have read, but never did. I guess the yuletide season is digging up the kid in me. By the by, I would love to see your must-read list...!
