I have been thinking ever since reading Karen Healey's The Shattering, which I loved, that there should be more pagans in realistic fiction. I mean, there is a dearth of YA books that take religious belief seriously and aren't by Melody Carlson, but I don't think I've ever read a book with a pagan character where "And her magic actually works!" wasn't part of the storyline, for better or worse.
