Summary
Here are books four, five, and six in L. M. Boston's thrilling and chilling tales of Green Knowe, a haunted manor deep in an overgrown garden in the English countryside, which have been entertaining audiences for half a century!
Author Lucy Maria Boston (1892-1990) purchased a ramshackle manor house near Cambridge, England, in 1935, which over a period of two years she lovingly restored. It is the house that inspired her, at the age of 62, to take pen in hand and create the beloved Green Knowe chronicles. L.M. Boston said she wrote her books to please herself - but the pleasure of her stories extends to all who read or listen to them.
Narrator Simon Vance is a native of Brighton, England. After graduating from the Brighton School of Music and Drama, and Leeds University, Vance embarked on a lengthy career with the BBC, in addition to narrating for the Talking Book Service of the Royal National Institute for the Blind. Later, he moved his residence and narrating career to California. His work has received five AudioFile Earphones Awards and three Audie Award nominations.

Timeless, Wonderful Stories
I adore the Green Knowe Chronicles, my favourite being The Children of Green Knowe. Hard to choose a second but I’m rather partial to An Enemy at Green Knowe because Lucy M.Boston’s witting is so rich and vivid.
So lovely to have all the chronicles in audio form, it gives a different dimension to some very well loved tales. I would recommend anyone who has read The Children of Green Knowe to listen to these magical stories.

Loved these as a child and discovered I love them as an adult
These were magical to read as a child and were my favourite for years.
Having not read them for years, I have fallen in love with them all over again as an adult.
They are not written in childish language, neither are they sugary, the descriptions are wonderful and bring the world of Green Knowe to life.
I’m so glad I have rediscovered these gems.
