What to expect

Bloomsbury presents The Lost Tide Warriors by Catherine Doyle, read by Patrick Moy.

'Doyle’s talent for creating windswept, stormy tension and physical threat sweeps all before it. This is one for a seaside holiday, whatever the weather’ The Daily Mail

In the brilliant sequel to The Storm Keeper's Island, winner of the Books are My Bag Readers Award, Fionn Boyle finds himself at the heart of the fight for the island's survival.

Fionn Boyle has been Storm Keeper of Arranmore for less than six months when thousands of terrifying Soulstalkers arrive on the island. The empty-eyed followers of the dreaded sorceress Morrigan have come to raise their leader and Fionn is powerless to stop them. The Storm Keeper’s magic has deserted him and with his grandfather’s memory waning, Fionn must rely on his friends Shelby and Sam to help him summon Dagda’s army of merrows.

But nobody else believes the ferocious sea creatures even exist. And how can he prove he’s right without any magic? As Fionn begins his search for the lost army, the other islanders prepare for invasion. The battle to save Arranmore has begun.

Critics Review

Even better than its wonderful predecessor. It’s laugh out loud funny and heart-breaking in equal measure, with stakes so high that you can barely catch your breath until you turn the last page. This book is one to treasure and it marks Catherine Doyle as a breakout star in middle grade fiction
Louise O'Neill, author of The Surface Breaks
Sparkles with wit and wisdom ... The Lost Tide Warriors is an unputdownable adventure
Abi Elphinstone, author of Sky Song
A masterfully written, truly legendary adventure. The Lost Tide Warriors feels like a journey across the darkest, wildest and most beautiful seas
Sophie Anderson, author of The House With Chicken Legs
A wonderfully crafted adventure – tense, thrilling, poignant and really rather beautiful
P.G. Bell, author of The Train to Impossible Places
Exceptional ... It kept me on the edge of my seat, had me laughing out loud and made me weep. Beautifully written, emotionally compelling and tremendously exciting, it cements Catherine Doyle as one of the strongest children's authors writing today
Katie Tsang, co-author of Sam Wu is NOT Afraid of Ghosts
The Lost Tide Warriors takes everything that made The Storm-Keeper's Island so special and runs with it – more action, higher stakes, an expanding mythology at once supremely high-concept and so real it feels like it lives just down the road. Doyle is a born storyteller ... A book you won't be able to put down
Dave Rudden, author of the Knights of the Borrowed Dark series
Doyle has created something rare, rich and beautiful in the Storm Keeper series; the beautiful writing is so compelling and I already can't wait for the next book
Sarah Davis-Goff, author of Last Ones Left Alive
Tender and powerful. This is a gripping adventure ... I really needed this book – a generous message that courage and love are often all the magic we need
Alice Broadway, author of the Ink Trilogy
Magical in every way
Eoin Colfer on THE STORM KEEPER’S ISLAND
Acutely observed sibling dynamics, a house full of magical candles, and a vivid sense of history interwoven with Irish legend make for a standout novel
Guardian on THE STORM KEEPER'S ISLAND
The book of the season (if not the year) has to be this beautifully written fantasy adventure. The perfect summer holiday escape, don’t miss it!
Irish Independent on THE STORM KEEPER'S ISLAND
So magical and wild that it’s like being swept away by the sea
