Excellent bedtime story material, don't you think? I guess that's why I am such a weirdo.

if you don't mind my asking, how old were you? i've been waiting for my son to be old enough to follow it and enjoy it, but i thought 7 was maybe not quite old enough.

I used to listen to my dad's tapes of the radio series when I was very young (apparently Peter Jones' voice was one of the only things that used to get me to sleep) and so got onto the books as soon as I could read to that level (must have been 8 or 9). I was most disappointed that there were no foot soldiers in the books 
. I would definitely recommend the books as reading material or the radio series, even for the quite young.
