MERCH & VOUCHERS
‘Impossible to put down – a dynamic, dragon-filled, delight of an adventure.’
A. F. Steadman
‘Fabulous – brimming with magic and full of hope for our beautiful planet.’
Patricia Forde, Laureate na nÓg
‘Enchanting characters, unpredictable magic and questionable motives will leave listeners enthralled.’
Scope for Imagination
‘This strange, hugely readable and life-affirming tale exercises every muscle of the imagination.’
The Guardian
