Winterbringers
£3.99
Also available as: Paperback
St Andrews is not known for its glorious weather. But when the sea starts to freeze and ice creeps up the beach, Josh's summer holiday takes an alarming turn for the worse.
With his new friend Callie and her enormous dog Luath, Josh is thrown headlong into a storm of witches, ice creatures, magic and the Winter King. A permanent winter threatens, unless they can stop the Winterbringers once and for all
Reviews
'... a genuinely chilling atmosphere and unguessable plotting make for a compelling read. Whether you're in it for the fantasy, the thrills, the myth, the mystery or history there's something for every 9 to 13 reader, boy or girl...it's definitely one to recommend.'
--Eileen Armstrong, School Librarian Journal
'This is a great adventure story full of tension and a bit blood-curdling in places. It is a well-written story, very gripping and exciting. Excellent read!'

'An involving and accomplished fantasy mystery by a Scottish writer fast establishing an enthusiastic readership.'
-- Sunday Herald
