About this book
Peregrine Quinn has always known that her godfather Daedalus is immortal, but his stories of the Gods and their world are so fanciful, she's hardly believed they were true. Until the day they visit the Bodleian Library in Oxford and witness the shutting-down of the portals that link the Terran and Cosmic Realms.
And when Daedalus, the only one who can fix them, is kidnapped, Peregrine is caught up in a desperate race to find him before an ancient evil is released from banishment to bring chaos and destruction to the world.
Luckily, she has some help. But how effective can a human girl, a faun, and a dryad be against the monstrous power pursuing them?
In this story of determination, loyalty, and endurance, Peregrine must grow up fast and learn to operate as part of a team. In a situation where she and her allies are undoubtedly inferior in physical strength and weaponry, they rely on ingenuity and out-thinking their adversaries.
With nail-biting action on the streets of Oxford, the riverways of London, and in the depths of the Under-Underground, otherworldly creatures shoot laser blasters and ancient gods lurk around every corner.
A fun, frantic fantasy romp.
