A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

JESSICA TOWNSEND lives on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia with her dogs, Vivien and Rik. Her pet fascinations include public transport, ancient cities, hotels, opera singers, Halloween, secret societies and gigantic cats - all of which have weaselled their way into Nevermoor, her first series and a city that feels like it belongs entirely to her. (Except now it belongs to you, too.)

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Not only does Morrigan Crow's curse mean she's blamed for all bad luck, she's also destined to die on her
Eleventh birthday. She bravely accepts her doom, but in a
Very surprising twist of fate, before the clock strikes twelve on
Eventide and the howling shadow wolves arrive, she's whisked away by a
Remarkable man called Jupiter North and taken to the secret city of Nevermoor.
Morrigan cannot believe her luck when she's given a
Once-in-a-lifetime chance to join the Wundrous Society - a place of mystery, magic and protection.
Only first she must pass four impossible trials using an exceptional talent (which she doesn't have).
Racing against time, can Morrigan claim her place in this wild, wondrous city before the shadows catch up with her?
