This is an intriguing, wonderfully written, magical coming of age story packed with references to Sci Fi books and quite unlike any other book you will come across. Fifteen year old Morwenna lives with her twin sister and family in Wales. They know about magic, the personal costs that come with using it, and they know their mother is a dark witch. A devastating magical battle with her Mother leaves Morwenna crippled, her sister dead and her Mother looking for revenge...

'It doesn't matter. I have books, new books, and I can bear anything as long as there are books.'Fifteen-year-old Morwenna lives in Wales with her twin sister and a mother who spins dark magic for ill. One day, Mori and her mother fight a powerful, magical battle that kills her sister and leaves Mori crippled. Devastated, Mori flees to her long-lost father in England. Adrift, outcast at boarding school, Mori retreats into the worlds she knows best: her magic and her books. She works a spell to meet kindred souls and continues to devour every fantasy and science fiction novel she can lay her hands on. But danger lurks... She knows her mother is looking for her and that when she finds her, there will be no escape.
