'A delight from start to finish . . . Sparkes' clear, direct style is easy to read . . . Oh, what fun this is!' * The Times *
'This is a splendidly eventful read, with welcome collateral possibilities for learning some obscure and enchanting history.' * Books for Keeps *
'Beneath the humour, magic and excitement of this engaging novel are far deeper concerns which are satisfyingly, and realistically, resolved.' * Armadillo *

Author's Bio
Ali Sparkes grew up in Southampton and despite some exciting months in London and even more exciting months in Lowestoft (where she really experienced life on the edge as a Pontin's Bluecoat), still lives in Southampton today, with her husband and two teenage sons. She has worked as a singer, journalist, broadcaster, magazine editor, and the spangle-clad assistant to a juggling unicyclist (frighteningly, there is photographic proof). Ali currently has 29 children's fiction titles published by Oxford University Press including her Shapeshifter series, her Blue Peter Award-winning novel Frozen in Time, and her heart-stopping new adventure series about a group of teenagers with special powers - Unleashed.
