Keeper of the Realms: Crow’s Revenge
Publisher: Puffin
Charlie Keeper’s life with frail, forgetful Gran in their labyrinthine house is bearable, but for two things: her missing parents, and her malevolent guardian, lawyer Mr Crow.
Following another argument with him, Charlie encounters a stranger roaming her house – green-skinned Treman, Jensen Willow. He’s from Bellania, a world into which Charlie is shortly forced to flee, where forest Tremen and mountain Stomen are ruled by the powerful but sadly corrupt Jade Circle, a world threatened by evil lord Bane. Charlie discovers that her parents are Bane’s prisoners, and that she and her treasured pendant must play a key role in the inevitable forthcoming conflict.
With its endlessly unfolding, elaborate fantasy world, a plot brimming with cliff-hangers and vivid characters this is an imaginative roller-coaster fantasy.
