Swifter than Starlight : A Wilder than Midnight Story by Cerrie Burnell

Swifter than Starlight : A Wilder than Midnight Story by Cerrie BurnellFrom celebrated children's author Cerrie Burnell comes a new, wonderfully inclusive, magical tale set in the whimsical world of Wilder than Midnight. Long ago, on a winter's eve, two sisters walked into a wolf wild wood but only one returned. . . The Faraway Wood is full of twisting thorns and sharp teeth. Stirring with myth and music. It's the perfect place for bandits, thieves and secrets to hide. Until a prince goes missing. Lilac is a strong girl,

imaginative testament that ranges through Yeats's thought and writings

Although best known for the stories of Sherlock Holmes

her lungs ravaged by the smog and pollution of the overpopulated metropolis they call home

She will change the way you see the world

but still wanted more

unhappy Vietnamese-American disappears from her new home in Saigon without a trace

From the imagination of Wimpy Kid's Rowley Jefferson comes an adventure of epic proportions

she keenly observes her clients and co-workers

spellbinding and shapeshifting forms

whether you are a beginner or an experienced naturalist

only to stumble into a deepening mystery and a sinister criminal plot

Kawaguchi once again invites the reader to ask themselves: what would you change if you could travel back in time
