Tall Tales from the North West - The Weirdstone of Brisingamen
Aimed at children aged 9-12 and their families, but open to all who dare, Robert Lloyd Parry, a master of suspence and thrilling tales, reads tales from The Weird Stone of Brisingamen by Alan Garner.
The Weirdstone of Brisingamen: A Tale of Alderley is a children's fantasy novel which Alan Garner began work on in 1957, after he moved into the late medieval house, Toad Hall, in Blackden, Cheshire.
The story, which took the local legend of The Wizard of the Edge as a partial basis for the novel's plot, was influenced by the folklore and landscape of neighbouring Alderley Edge where he had grown up.
Upon completion the book was picked up by Sir William Collins who released it through his publishing company Collins in 1960.
