Book description
In this astonishing final part of Steve Augarde's captivating
trilogy, past and present are connected and the interwoven threads
lead to an astonishing series of revelations.
Midge's discovery of the hidden tribes is like a dream to her now,
their existence all but forgotten - but then a voice calls out to her
in the winter darkness. The Various have returned, and their
desperation has made them all the more dangerous. They must travel to
Elysse or perish. The only way that Midge can help the little people
is by tracing the whereabouts of her great-great-aunt Celandine. But
Celandine must be long dead, surely?
A story of danger and magic, friendships and betrayals, this is
fantasy writing at its very best.
