Full Description
The first in a hilarious, super readable and magical new adventure series from the New York Times bestselling author of The House at the Edge of Magic.
What happens if the Chosen One doesn't want the job?
Tassie has grown up in the Citadel under careful watch, well away from any form of danger - and adventure. When the Wisest of the Wise Witches comes to visit and proclaims her the Chosen One, destined to save her people from death and destruction, Tassie realizes why she's spent her life wrapped in cotton wool.
The time of fulfilling the prophecy is nigh - but it sounds absolutely ZERO fun.
Tassie needs to find a new Chosen One, so along with her best friend, a griffin called Spin, and an enigmatic elf, she sets off on an epic (and somewhat chaotic) quest through magical lands in a race against time. Unfortunately, she's never been on time for anything...
The wit and wackiness of Terry Pratchett's young fiction combines with the jaunt and unlikely hero story of Kung Fu Panda in this unputdownable adventure. Perfect for fans of Diana Wynne Jones, Sam Copeland, Jamie Littler and Jenny McLachlan, Amy Sparkes' latest series is bursting with imagination and fun.
