Mythago Wood: Deep within the wildwood lies a place of myth and mystery, from which few return, and none remain unchanged. Stand alone or series: The original and its sequel after 25 years Publishing Date: 1984 (first edition) 09 July 2009 (new edition) – 15 July 2009 We welcome Gav to the Book Smugglers – here is what he has to say: Gav, not only said yes but went beyond the call of duty by reading the first book as well! Gav runs a really good Speculative Fiction blog called NextRead (which recently went through a makeover by the way, and looks FAB) and we thought he would be a perfect fit – for the book and for our blog. As it is against our credo to leave books gathering dust in our shelves if it can be avoided, we conferred and decided to invite our buddy Gav to read the book and review it for us. We both wanted to read it but given our YA Month schedule, we realised we wouldn’t be able to, at least not so soon. Today we have something different: a while back we received a review copy of a Fantasy novel called Avilion by Robert Holdstock – we fell in love with the cover and with the blurb and after doing a bit of research we found out that the novel was a sequel to what many consider a classic in the genre, Mythago Wood, published 25 years ago.
