In a nutshell: magic mystery surprising discovery
Best-selling author Peter F. Hamilton continues the adventure that began in such thrilling style in The Secret Throne with an equally exciting and skilfully constructed new episode. Having rescued their father from a magical kingdom, and discovered in the process that they are magical royalty themselves, there’s no rest for sisters Taggie and Jemima. Indeed, the book opens with a hair-raising assassination attempt on Taggie that she thwarts only by using all her special powers. She is not the only royal heir to have been attacked and as they endeavour to find out what is going on, there are more narrow escapes for the girls, and some surprising discoveries. Readers will be eager to return to the First Realm with Taggie and her friends for more inventive, original fantasy adventure.
Readers who enjoy this should look out for The Darkening Path trilogy by Philip Womack, or classic fantasy including the Narnia stories or Alice in Wonderland. ~ Andrea Reece
