Reviews for the book:
“a gripping read...a beautifully narrated, warm thriller of a book, full of inventiveness, action and passion” The Guardian
“In terms of imagination and sheer scale, it’s as ambitious as books get...think Star Wars and then some” Daily Telegraph

So she and her twin brother, Bowman, set out on a terrifying journey – to the true source of the evil that grips Aramanth...
