The epic conclusion to the highly acclaimed and globally bestselling Whisperwicks series.
Return to Wreathenwold for impossible magic, spectacular adventure and a mind-blowing finale. For fans of the spell-binding world-building of Philip Pullman and Katherine Rundell and the page-turning kid appeal of SKANDAR.
The magus Manfred Tarr is on the hunt for a key – a key that has been lost for centuries and which has the power to unleash a terrible darkness on the world.
To save Wreathenwold from a dreadful fate and armed only with his magic, his courage and his best friends Elizabella, Mea and Silas, Benjamiah must set out on another impossible quest to find the Three Sisters.
This dangerous journey will take them deep into the heart of the Weird Wood – home to ragwitches, root folk and half bears – and into a fierce battle with far-reaching consequences. Can Benjamiah conquer the darkness and save Wreathenwold one final time?
