'... the best Common Entrance textbook I have seen over my 45 years of being
involved with prep school geography' (Paul Baker, Geography Adviser to the
IAPS and Chair of the GA ISSIG)
In a land trapped by fate, only courage can re-write the future. In the
magical village of Everspring, everyone receives a fate card before their
twelfth birthday, sent down from the mysterious Mount Never. It tells them
their purpose, their profession and how old they'll be when they die. Nearly
12-year-old Ember Shadows has always believed she is destined for great
things. But when her fate card arrives, it's blank. What does that mean? Then,
worse still, her sister's card decrees she will die before her next birthday.
No way is Ember's going to let that happen. Determined to challenge what - or
who - is responsible for these cards, Ember sets off up the mountain, a place
no one is allowed to go. She encounters forbidden realms full of magic,
trickery and curious creatures. In a thrilling race through a magical
landscape, Ember Shadows must uncover the secret behind the fate cards in
order to save her sister ... But will Ember likes what she finds at the top of
the mountain? With hints of Alice in Wonderland, shades of The Phantom
Tollbooth and echoes of Pixar's Inside Out, this a thrilling, warm-hearted
race through magical realms, a classic magical adventure, beautifully
illustrated throughout.
