Author Q&A
Children the world over are flexing their powers, but it is only Rachel and Eric who finally have the skill to confront the Griddas, the terrible creatures unleashed by the High Witch. Cliff McNish writes with verve and sparkling imagination in this breathtaking novel.
"This is breathtaking, swashbuckling stuff as the story relentlessly unfolds until it finally reaches its spectacular conclusion…There is much to recommend about this book, and indeed the series: the characters are believeable; it is beautifully written, with page after page of powerful imagery; it is utterly compulsive and inventive reading for young teens."
