Firebloom

£4.99

Step ashore for the Firebloom Festival — but there’s only a show if the jellyfish glow…

Tally Smuck is destined to become a Sting Winkler — someone who can communicate with jellyfish.

But as visitors flock to her island’s famous festival, there’s no sign of Tally’s vital powers, or the light-and-life-giving sea creatures they’ve come to see…

Can Tally and her friends solve the mystery of the missing jellyfish and stop the island from being plunged into darkness for good?

Reviews

'Jiggles with jellyfish and JOY. Stuffed to the gills with adventure, heart and jellyfish. Last one to read is a squelchy sea slug!'
-- Maria Kuzniar, author of The Ship of Shadows Series

'A sweet, compassionate, funny middle-grade adventure about friendship, communities, courage and... jellyfish. Justin is a splendid world builder with warm, rounded characters including Tally's Granddad and his husband, Mandad. Perfect for the readership.'
-- Patrice Lawrence, author of Orangeboy

'This is a lovely and well-written mystery from Justin Davies, with gorgeous illustrations from Francesca Ficorilli. The worldbuilding of this tiny island, and the industries supported by all the many kinds of jellyfish, is really well done, as are the characters. It's a clever mystery, too, with good pace and a satisfying ending. Jellytastic!'
-- Alastair Chisholm, author of Orion Lost

'Atmospheric and inventive. A wildly original adventure, steeped in seawater and storms, with some truly brilliant villains and a dramatic showdown to die for.'
-- Barbara Henderson, author of Rivet Boy
