Some people are destined for greatness. Goffren is just trying to survive it.
Strange murders are happening at shimmering castle Charmont, and children are vanishing all across the ancient kingdom. Goffren—the orphaned “ghost of Slaathwick” and the only Verlokken boy anyone’s seen in generations— is reluctantly pulled in to solve the mystery.
Dragging two new friends along with him, Lydianna, a bold festival performer, and Halstrohm, a solemn apprentice magician, their adventures will take them through portals and ancient corridors, across storm-slashed water, and into the clutches of creatures and dark powers that should not exist.
And when fate corners him, Goffren must decide whether to unleash the full, terrifying might of his Verlokken heritage…or risk losing everything—and everyone—again.
Heartfelt, harrowing, and full of wondrous imagination, this thrilling sequel proves that even the most cursed boy can change the fate of a kingdom. Perfect for fans of Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Golden Compass, Septimus Heap, and The Graveyard Book, and magical adventures full of danger, humor, heart, and high-stakes fantasy.
Literary Titans Gold Medal: "…for anyone who wants a coming-of-age story tangled with monsters, magic, and heartache, but also with friendship, food, and flickers of joy...The writing has a playful rhythm in places, almost silly at times, and then suddenly sharp, reminding me of how childhood wonder collides with the dread of growing up.”“…poetic, humorous, and full of striking imagery…draws from fantasy conventions while maintaining a spirit entirely his own…sparkling energy and whimsical intrigue…Readers will jump for joy.” -The BookLife Prize.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Be thankful for the Verlokken who lives in your town, but maybe a few streets over or a couple of blocks down."Goffren (Goff in modern times) is the "ghost of Slaathwick," an orphaned teenage Verlokken boy with a complex and treacherous relationship with the magical realm. It causes him to end up in the thick of the worst of it, and he drags anyone foolish enough to be friends with him along for the ride. People stay clear of him, and he stays clear of them, living alone in a small broom closet in the Royal Kitchen with his pet rat, Felix. He'd found a family once, a brief stint of feeling loved and happy, but a Verlokken doesn't get to be happy. It ended in a horrible tragedy, thanks to him. Now, he keeps to himself, determined to never let that happen again.When he reluctantly forms a friendship with a boisterous girl who performs at Royal Festivals and a stoic boy who is an apprentice Royal Magician, he pulls them along on a perilous effort to solve the mystery of strange murders at shimmering Castle Charmont and children being abducted from Slaathwick village and the outer Wicks.On their fast-paced and treacherous adventure, they are almost eaten by a giant sea creature, barely escape a dark wizard's castle, are nearly killed by winged lizards, flee from a wizard-hating mob, travel through magical portals, and are marked for execution. Ultimately, in his darkest hour, when all hope seems lost, Goffren must cast his fate to the wind and embrace the full, immense, terrifying extent of his Verlokken nature as his only hope of avoiding horrible tragedy.
