The Animals at Lockwood Manor was such a disappointment! I agree about the pacing and characters, and I also found it full of little anachronisms and sloppy language use.
I had not heard of Helen Forrester or Robert Bhatia, but those books sound absolutely fascinating—I'll have to look them up!
I find caving unnerving at the best of times ( for which I can blame reading The Weirdstone of Brisingamen at the age of 9)
