Abarat?

Has anyone heard that Disney have bought the rights off Clive Barker for this and plan to make a 5th park out of it in Orlando? Anyone with any news? I adore the books so far (third due out this year) and think it would be a perfect "anti-park" for Disney.

Not heard this rumour and I must confess I've not heard of these books! What are they about? Always on the look out for new books to read!!

NB Don't worry these are not referral links! The better review is actually the one that is not mine!

It is basically a very dark Alice in Wonderland. Imagine if Tim Burton wrote kids books
