'Spooky and deliciously dark in places, this is a fabulously gripping story about the power of love, friendship and overcoming scary situations.' --MinervaReads 'Another brilliant page-turner from Blue Peter Book Award winner, Ross MacKenzie. It twists and turns between darkness and light, and is full of suspense, mystery and intrigue. Perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman, Cliff McNish and JK Rowling.' -- BookTrust 'Ross MacKenzie deftly weaves a world of magic and adventure in a fantasy adventure novel replete twists and turns magnificently and will keep thrilled young readers ages 9 to 12 guessing right to the end. Impressively original and exceptionally well written, "Shadowsmith" is a consistently compelling read from beginning to end.' -- Midwest Book Review 'I loved everything about this gripping book and would recommend it to fans of fantasy and mystery books.' -- Nicola Sullivan, Age 10, for National Geographic Kids
