And we're at the end of our journey for another year. Today we read The Joining of the Signs. "And in a great blaze of yellow-white light, the sun rose over Hunter's Combe and the valley of the Thames." #tdir #tdirreadathon
Today, after the long pause, we read The King of Fire and Water and The Hunt Rides. "Through the rush of the wind he thought... ...that he could hear a strange, high yelping in the wind, like the sound of migrating geese flying high." #tdir #tdirreadthon
If you've not yet read Part Three: The Testing, The Coming of the Cold and The Hawk in the Dark, now's a good day to do it, before any celebrations later. #tdir #tdirreadathon
It's the big gap now that we've finished Part Two with the beginning of Part Three: The Testing, The Coming of the Cold and The Hawk in the Dark occurring some time between now and early Jan. #tdir #tdirreadathon
Happy Christmas! See if you can fit in just the one chapter today, Christmas Day. "Will was instantly a furious Old One, so furious that he did not pause to think what he should do." #tdir #tdirreadathon
Lots to read today in Part Two: The Learning - Christmas Eve, The Book of Gramarye and Betrayal. "When you have the knowledge, Will Stanton, there will no longer be any need of storing it, for with you the circle is complete." #tdir #tdirreadathon
Today we encounter (and read the chapter) The Walker on the Way. "The last of the Old Ones has come, Walker, and it is time. The moment for giving the Sign is now, now or never." #tdir #tdirreadathon
A day off on the re-read but a chance to catch up if you need to before the rush over Christmas #tdir #tdirreadathon
Happy Midwinter's Day! Today we read Midwinter's Day and The Sign Seeker. "Nothing is what it seems, boy. Expect nothing and fear nothing, here or anywhere." #tdir #tdirreadathon
The annual re-read starts today! We start, as is traditional, with Part One: The Finding and Midwinter's Eve. Please check on all of your livestock and beware of the rooks. Tomorrow will be beyond imagining. #tdir #tdirreadathon
Time to dig out your copies of The Dark is Rising for the annual re-read! Which copies to you have? #tdir #tdirreadathon
Went both nights to see the Pippin 50th anniversary concert and loved it! Brought back some excellent memories of going multiple times to see @PippinLDN and what a fabulous production that was. Maybe we could bring it back? #magictodo

Last day of reading (unless you're interpreting today as the even of Twelfth Night in which case follow yesterday's intructions!) and it's the last chapter The Joining of the Signs! #tdir #tdirreadathon
Happy new year! It's time to pick the book up again (if you ever put it down!). On the eve of Twelfth Night we're reading The King of Fire and Water and The Hunt Rides. Depending on your interpretation that's either today or tomorrow! #tdir #tdirreadathon
Happy new year! Still a few days left to read The coming of the Cold and The Hawk in the Dark #tdir #tdirreadathon
Happy Christmas! Only one chapter to read today - Christmas Day! Have a lovely day and don't let the Dark in. #tdir #tdirreadathon
Bumper reading day today! Christmas Eve, The Book of Gramarye and Betrayal. Hope you can enjoy a mince pie, mulled wine and maybe some carols today! #tdir #tdirreadathon
Hope you've finished your Christmas shopping and maybe have time for a nice walk! Time to read The Walker on the Way! #tdir #tdirreadathon
