Let's make this birthday one to remember.

90 years old (Born on October 17, 1934)

Happy Birthday, Alan Garner! May your day be full of magic stronger than "The Weirdstone" and mysteries deeper than the caverns of Alderley Edge. You've enchanted generations with quests into folklore—from ancient legends in Cheshire to mythical wanderings in Thursbitch.

Your vivid imagination inspires endless journeys through captivating realms—thank you for gifting us timeless adventures like The Stone Book Quartet and Strandloper. So here's hoping there’s cake as legendary as wizardry, candles brighter than a sorcerer's lantern, and laughter echoing louder than tales whispered around English hillsides!

Cheers to another chapter richer in wonder—keep spinning those marvelous stories!
