About this title

Synopsis

Toby s world is under greater threat than ever before. A giant crater has been dug right into the centre of the Tree, moss and lichen invade the branches, and one tyrant controls it all. Leo Blue, once Toby s best friend, now his worst enemy, is holding Elisha prisoner, hunting the Grass People with merciless force, capturing all who stand in his way, inflicting a life of poverty and fear. But returning after several years among the Grass People, Toby will fight back. And this time he s not alone. A resistance is forming� This eagerly anticipated sequel to the award-winning Toby Alone is a gripping conclusion to a new classic adventure story.
