Flora Segunda: Being The Magickal Mishaps Of A Girl Of Spirit, Her Glass-Gazing Sidekick, Two Ominous Butlers (One Blue), A House With Eleven Thousand Rooms, And A Red Dog (Magic Carpet Books) - Plot & Excerpts
The Pond. A Leap. VALEFOR DID NOT—perhaps could not—follow me. The sky looked like milky tea and the moon was a swirly smudge just above the tree line. The gate to the back garden was open, and I went through it into the tangled wilderness beyond. Valefor had bragged quite a bit about the marvels of his gardens—how perfect his hedge animals, how tall his cypress trees—but as with the rest of Crackpot, there was nothing left of the glory but the brag itself. Without his care, the foliage had become a tangle of branches, and the grass high and hiding. A small footpath beat its way through the wilderness, and I could just make out its trace through the gloam, leading toward the Sunken Puddle, Crackpot’s ornamental pond. Just beyond the gate, at the edge of the Puddle, stands the grave of Barbizon, my great-grandfather Azucar Fyrdraaca’s war horse. Her memorial is a statue so energetic that it seems as though Barbizon herself had turned to hard stone in the sudden act of curveting: She balances on muscular back legs, while an extended front hoof forever slices up at the sky, her teeth bared.
