Deciding she has nothing more to lose, Sophie makes her way to the moving castle that hovers on the hills above her town, Market Chipping. But the castle belongs to the dreaded Wizard Howl, whose appetite, they say, is satisfied only by the souls of young girls… There Sophie meets Michael, Howl’s apprentice, and Calcifer the fire demon, with whom she agrees a pact. Her entanglements with Calcifer, Howl and Michael and her quest to break her curse come alive with Diana Wynne Jones’s unique combination of magic, humour and imagination.

Diana Wynne Jones
Engelsk forfatterinde som har skrevet fantasy lige siden begyndelsen af 70'erne. En af hendes seneste bøger, "The Tough Guide to Fantasyland" er blevet ret godt modtaget. Her kan man lære hvad man skal gøre og hvad man skal undgå, den slags steder. Desuden er hun kendt for sine "rigtige" fantasy romaner bl.a. "Howl's Moving Castle" der er blevet filmatiseret.
