Mythopoeic season is coming up. Anything from last year that anyone thinks is mythopoeic/in the spirit of the Inklings?

What is already on my list:

Gene Wolfe: The Knight and The Wizard
Patricia McKillip: Alphabet of Thorn
The anthology Fairy Reel
Kage Baker: Anvil of the World

For the Children's List:

Holly Black: Spiderwick Chronicles

{The rule is no parts of series -- either the whole thing, or, if it's a single volume, the volume must stand alone. Publication date must be 2004.)

Tentatively, _A Hatful of Sky_ by Pratchett. I haven't read it yet, but the previous _Wee Free Men_ has a substantial amount of mysticism, and I suspect that so will _A Hatful of Sky_.

Wee Free Men was on last year's Children's List, I believe -- or perhaps that was Hatful of Sky. mnemex would know better than I.
