For centuries it has been locked away
Lost beneath the sea
Warded from earth, air, water, fire, spirits, thought and sight.
But now magic is rising to the world once more.
And a boy called Gavin, who thinks only that he is a city kid with parents who hate him, and knows only that he sees things no one else will believe, is boarding a train, alone, to Cornwall.
No one will be there to meet him.

About the Author
James Treadwell
Born in West London, he was influenced in his youth by reading Roger Lancelyn Green’s Myths of the Norsemen, Barbara Leonie Picard’s retellings of the Iliad and Odyssey, and fantasy series including the Narnia, Middle Earth, Gormenghast, Earthsea, and Pern stories and Susan Cooper’s Britain. He frequently played Dungeons & Dragons at school. He continued to read fantasy at university.
Treadwell became an academic specialising in 18th- and 19th-century British literature. He wrote on history before leaving academia to become a full-time writer of fantasy novels. He has lived in Oxford and Montréal, before settling in London.
