'This debut gets off to a scorching start. Gripping and immersive' New Statesman, Best Children's Books for Christmas 2021

'This remarkable debut pulsates with energy and drama' Daily Mail Best Children's Books of the Year

Set in the snowy northern forests of an imagined prehistoric world, Fireborn is the middle-grade debut of the decade. At turns exciting, funny and heart wrenchingly sad, it marks the introduction of an unstoppable new voice in children's storytelling.

Twelve has spoken the Pledge and now she is a Huntling. She has given up her name to train in the art of fighting monsters and keeping the peace, and she won't get to choose a new one until she has earned it.

But when the Lodge's walls are breached for the first time, and a little girl is taken, Twelve is the only one interested in going after a child . . .

Teaming up with Dog, the Stone Guardian of the Lodge, Twelve ends up on an epic adventure that will change her life, her name - and her entire world.

The book is a magical exploration of friendship and action, set in a fantasy world that will captivate its juvenile audience. The social themes and family dynamics add depth to the story, making it a must-read for children.

For fans of Katherine Rundell (Rooftoppers), Rick Riordan (Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief), Cressida Cowell (Which Way Round the Galaxy), Bb Alston (Amari and the Night Brothers), and M. G. Leonard (Spark).
