I found this book years ago when I was looking for alternate titles by the author. I fell in love with her book "The Catswold Portal". This book continues the same type of fantasy story, Certain cats are born with the ability to speak and understand human language, and of course Joe Grey uses that ability to torment his humans even more! If you love cats, and understand their personalities, definetly give this book a read! There are more continuing stories with Joe Grey and Dulcie to enjoy when you finish this one!
P.S. If by chance anyone has a copy of "The Catswold Portal" Please e-mail me! I loaned mine out, and have been unable to replace it!
