Ooh, thanks for that - a fascinating read! I can't remember reading The Librarian and the Robbers, although I remember The Great Piratical Rumbustification, but I was very small and may have either skipped it or the memories have been overwritten by something else. I like the idea of the inherent tensions in libraries.
I note your wordplay on Styx - there's actually a Styx river in Christchurch, and I used to take my dog to the Styx Mill dog park, without ever (fortunately!) encountering any gloomy ferrymen.
(I am saving the radio interview until I've seen the film myself!)
