Addendum to 'The Dark is Rising' film warning

[sff_corgi_lj]

For those who haven't read the series yet [gasp of shock], TDiR is actually the second book in the five-volume sequence.

Over Sea, Under Stone
The Dark is Rising
Greenwitch
The Grey King
Silver on the Tree

There, go out and be vastly entertained. This series helped me learn my pathetic smattering of Welsh.

Since I saw the trailer last month I've been meaning to get hold of the books as it sounded fun. I had a horrible feeling that this might be another "Hollywooding" though. Sigh.

From the Guardian's commentary, more a de-paganising - because, after all, only 'Christians' have proper family values, right?

Only Christian American families, surely? Blurgh.
