Omschrijving
Cracking adventure from the wildly imaginative Montgomery.
Cracking adventure from the wildly imaginative Montgomery.
I’ve long been a fan of Ross Montgomery but, along with The Midnight Guardians, The Chime Seekers is story-telling in a different league […] a concept perfectly poised to capture children’s imaginations and take them on this most fabulous journey into the magical world of British folklore.
This richly imaginative tale shows faeries at their darkest and most sinister, but there are plenty of funny moments along the way.
Ross Montgomery started writing stories as a teenager, when he should have been doing homework, and continued doing so at university. His debut novel, Alex, the Dog and the Unopenable Door, was shortlisted for the Costa Children's Book of the Year and Branford Boase Award. It was also selected as one of the Sunday Times' "Top 100 Modern Children's Classics". His books have also been nominated for the CILIP Carnegie Award, while his picture book Space Tortoise was nominated for the Kate Greenaway Award and included in the Guardian's Best New Children's Books of 2018. The Midnight Guardians, Ross's first fiction novel with Walker Books, was selected as a Waterstones Children's Book of the Month and is garnering huge praise. He lives in London with his girlfriend and their cat, Fun Bobby.
Cracking adventure from the wildly imaginative Montgomery.
Funny, terrifying, full of folkloric strangeness hiding in everyday corners, this sparkling homage to David Bowie’s Labyrinth is just as satisfying as last year’s The Midnight Guardians.
Lovers of fantasy will find a skillful mix of tradition and invention in The Chime Seekers, the latest whirlwind adventure by Ross Montgomery.
