Title: Mutable Time & Geography
Product review: This was the first Andre Norton book I had read in many years and I was very disappointed in it. I had much higher expectations.What really annoyed me about it was the highly mutable geography and timeline. The map was nothing like the geography described in text. The Bog was north, west, or south of the kingdom depending on what paragraph was being read. A teenage girl could cautiously walk through the dangerous bog in a few hours but it took a week for sea rovers to sail around the edge. The antagonist could magically scry upon the protagonist, spend several days doing other things then scry again and only a few hours would have passed in the life of the protagonist.There was no thought, logic, or consistency to matters of time, travel time, and geography; and I found that very aggravating.
