Brought to you by Puffin.

The spell-binding world-building of Philip Pullman and Katherine Rundell with the page-turning kid appeal of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief.


‘Magic forged at Midsommer is the strongest and truest of all magic – both fair and foul.’

Ever since Benjamiah returned from his spectacular adventure in Wreathenwold, he’s been desperate to go back. When he discovers a strange fragment of witchstone, he is transported back to the labyrinthine streets of Wreathenwold and soon finds himself on another dangerous quest involving a strange collection of fairytales – The Book of Barely Believable Stories.

Reunited with Elizabella Cotton and helped by two new friends – Mea and Silas the mapmaker – the gang undertake a series of magical trials to save the missing children of Wreathenwold before Midsommer ends and they are lost forever . . .

‘Completely fantastic’ A.F. Steadman, bestselling author of the SKANDAR series on The Whisperwicks
