Synopsis

In this gripping story of kidnap and sorcery spanning two worlds, Natalie discovers her own extraordinary powers and how mush is at stake in both worlds. Much depends on the kidnapper's son Merlin deciding where his loyalties lie. Can they save Earthaven the enchanted realm beyond the Thrallstone gateway where giant soul trees weave a new kind of magic, and unicorns and magehounds do battle with an evil force determined to spread its poison across both worlds? Natalie and her friends need all their courage in SPELLFALL, one of the most exciting books you will ever read!

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Natalie saw the first spell in the supermarket car park. She was wet and cold and had better things to do than pick up someone else's litter. But the trap had been baited by one who knew a lot more about spells than she did...

Snatched from her family and stranded in another world, can Natalie persuade her kidnapper's son Merlin to help her escape in time to save the enchanted land of Earthaven, where unicorns roam and giant trees provide sanctuary for her mother's soul?

Originally published by Chicken House/Scholastic in 2001, Spellfall was selected by American independent booksellers as the "book most likely to fill the Harry Potter void this fall", and now there's a sequel! Natalie and her friends return to Earthaven in Book 2 Spell Spring.

"A thrilling and fast-paced fantasy adventure with shades of Tolkien and Pullman. Superb." The Bookseller.

Présentation de l'éditeur

A powerful fantasy from the talented author of the Echorium Trilogy (Song Quest and The Crystal Mask).

Someone knows Natalie is special. And now he wants her power. But when the evil villain kidnaps Natalie, she manages to escape. Guided to the Thrallstone by a mysterious hound, she slips through the gateway between worlds, to Earthaven! It is a place of breathtaking wonder where unicorns roam, giant trees talk, magicians control the powers governing two worlds - and she has a very special destiny. As soon as Natalie learns of her magic powers, she is forced to put them to use. Earthaven is under siege, and now Natalie must use her magic to foil an evil plot before Earthaven is destroyed.
