More than ten years in my case, though. I was still in elementary school. Heck, I think my mom read them to me the first time.
Really should re-read if I can collect all the books again, though.

I read the Dark Is Rising series a few years ago and remember thoroughly enjoying it. I'll definitely have to pick up the books again soon. Unfortunately, as it's nearing 3 am right now, I'll have to put off reading the mission until I'm more awake. I really look forward to it though (how could someone disrupt *that* series? It was so good!).
That was a fun mission to read. (Embroidered eyes? Ack!) Nice work! :D
I've never read The Dark is Rising or any of the books that follow, but I'm definitely curious now. I'll have to see if the library has a copy.
The Dark is Rising and The Grey King were two of the most defining books from my childhood; I wrote my college essay about Bran Davies.
Even though I have never read The Dark is Rising, I still enjoyed the mission. The death of the Sue and the "Maybe I should just stop saying things between missions." line were just hillarious.
I got to the end and it occurred to me that neither Cassandra Griffin nor Lillian put up much of a fight (which I think is probably to do with the fact that neither of them had any clearly-defined means of doing so and otherwise were just generically speshul teenage/preteen girls), and it never does to tempt the Ironic Overpower...
Like the others, I have read them and have very fond memories of them, it's just been rather long time since. I know that isn't helping you right now, but I thought it might be encouraging to know.
Unfortunately, I didn't even know what Dark is Rising was until just recently, so... yeah. Sorry. =(
That said, though, this was a hilarious mission. Great job! =D
but, like the other two, it's been a while. They were some of my favorites when I was younger (ha. Barely an adult and now I'm old).
I read them about 10 years ago. Maybe longer. I'm getting old and don't remember things as well as I used to. You know, because 25 is practically ancient.

That's directed at everyone who read them when they were younger and not since.

And what a great mission it was!
I found one minor error to nitpick: 'He another book out'.
I did some tweaking on that paragraph and "took" must have gotten lost somewhere along the line; it's back now.
...but it's been about two years. I should really read them again.
Granddaughter?! What is that I don't even...
*goes off to read*
