This is a great book for both adults and children. Nesbit's writing is fresh and full of suspense and delight. I have found it hard to put any of her books down! 'The Enchanted Castle' is a great story of friendship, mystery and fantasy. The dialogue between characters is wonderful and so life like. The discription is great. She makes you feel like you're along for the journey in every single way posible.
