What to expect

NARRATED SPECTACULARLY BY ADJOA ANDOH, BEST KNOWN FOR PLAYING BRIDGERTON'S LADY DANBURY.

DISCOVER THE PORTAL TO AN INCREDIBLE NEW WORLD IN THIS EPIC MIDDLE-GRADE ADVENTURE. PERFECT FOR FANS OF SKANDAR, PERCY JACKSON and ARTEMIS FOWL.

Peregrine Quinn has always loved hearing her godfather Daedalus Bloom's stories about his life as an immortal, but that's all they were - stories. That is, until the portals that connect the Terran Realm with the Cosmic Realm mysteriously shut down and Daedalus, the only one who can fix them, is kidnapped.

Peregrine is then swept into a nail-biting adventure, racing through the streets of Oxford, down the riverways of London and into the Under-Underground. She soon realises that not only are the creatures from her godfather's stories real, but they're shooting at her with laser blasters.

Fortunately she has help from dryad librarian Rowan Strong and Olympus Inc. liaison (and faun) Callimachus Thorn. Together they must fix the portals and rescue Daedalus before an ancient evil rises and chaos takes over. Time is running out and the fate of all the realms is now in Peregrine's hands . . .

GET READY FOR AN EDGE-OF-YOUR SEAT RACE BETWEEN WORLDS WITH PEREGRINE QUINN.

Critics Review

A whirlwind of waistcoats, lasers and magic! I couldn’t stop smiling.

Amy Jeffs, author of STORYLAND

This debut just sings with excitement – a boldly imagined world bursting with myth and magic.

Jasbinder Bilan, author of ASHA & THE SPIRIT BIRD

Clever, witty, and full of all the very best kind of magic… Peregrine is a star in the making, and so are her weird and wonderful companions. A terrific adventure and an absolute pleasure to read, loved it.

Amy Wilson, author of A GIRL CALLED OWL

A mythological adventure with characters that will leap from the page and into your heart. Utterly divine. A book to fall in love with.

Lucy Hope, author of WREN

With its clever, compelling heroine and weird and wonderful cast, you will fall hard for this hilarious and breathless adventure.

Joanna Nadin, author of THE WORST CLASS IN THE WORLD

Neil Gaiman meets Eoin Colfer. Completely addictive, compelling and exploding with adventure – like nothing I’ve read before. I loved it.

Lucy Cuthew, author of BLOOD MOON

I love it! It’s witty and inventive; it barrels along at a cracking pace, full of vim and energy. It put me in mind of Artemis Fowl in a really good way. It will be perfect for readers who enjoy that flavour of irreverent magic.

Elen Caldecott, author of THE SHORT KNIFE

From the start of this story through to the very last page, readers are in for an unforgettable and thrilling adventure. Weaving together a sense of history and legend with technology and modern life, Ash Bond has created something truly special.
