Books

Cousins Piper, Jack, Willow and Kit are delighted to discover that their massive mansion is magical. According to their journal of adventures, they have so far discovered:

• A silver ornament of a dog that comes to life
• An orchard whose trees grow fruit on demand
• Mrs Boudry, an excellent, ghostly cook
• A deserted island behind an attic room door, complete with castaway pirates Taishi and Johnny Two-Legs, and the child-stealing, gold-sensing Babs Bembridge, the Witch Of The Seas

The children intend to map the house to uncover the different magics found in every room, but after a fierce storm they discover that they are at risk of having to leave the most incredible house ever known, as there isn’t enough money either to mend the roof or to pay for Great Great Aunt Glynis to be looked after. They make it their mission to hunt for treasure – but they are not the only people searching for gold at Merryshields. Can they save the mansion and escape the witch before Bad Babs steals their fortune?

A poisoned king. A mysterious dragon. Myths becoming real.

Haydn must take his dad’s flag to the Sacred Garden, but the stolen dragon egg in his bag needs returning to the nest before its mother ravages the island.

Elfridie must save her poisoned father, but finding an antidote means leaving everything she’s ever known and traveling alone across the island, in search of people she thought were myths.

Dragons have always lived peacefully on the northern shores of the Kingdom of Birds, considered nothing more than a myth by most of the Kingdom’s inhabitants…until one day, the ancient, mythical Tibowara lands on the mountains, and the old myths become real. When a Tibowara roars, it emits Dust, not fire, and if you breathe in this Dust you will lose your mind…

Thrust into a storm of magic and darkness, can Elfridie and Haydn carry out their quests before the Tibowara ravage the island, and nobody in their right mind is left to tell the tale?
