Synopsis | When Olivier visits his grandfather, retired to Cat's Eye Corner with Sylvia de Whosit of Whatsit, a reported witch, the situation calls for a little spying. In this mansion of shifting rooms and talking shrubbery he discovers a list of powerful talismans to be collected on a scavenger hunt for a fantastical book buried in Nevermore Lake. En route he bumps into the So-So Gang, a talking pen name Murray Sheaffer, teenager oracles Holy Moley and Holy Hannah, a swarm of French flies, a bogus magician named Mr. Mirrific, a fire-breathing dog and a girl named Linnet who controls the wind. But strangest of all are the Inklings, word fairies tinkering with the language so that nothing is what it seems... b-165.2
