Full Description
The isolated, salt-soaked isle of Stormcliff is preparing for the annual Firebloom Festival, a famous gathering of thousands of jellyfish and their incredible light show.
Twelve-year-old Tally Smuck is destined to become a Sting Winkler -- someone who can communicate with jellyfish -- just like her mother and grandfather before her. The Smucks' special gift means only they can do the vital job of caring for the invaluable jellies that Stormcliff depends on.
But by Firebloom Eve, there's still no sign of Tally's abilities, or the jellyfish. Determined not to let everyone down, Tally gathers her friends -- anxious Farran, fortune-teller-in-training Colette, and resourceful cliff rat Albert. Together can they bring the island's secrets to light and find the missing jellies before the Firebloom Festival and Stormcliff are plunged into darkness for good?
This illuminating middle-grade mystery adventure from award-winning author Justin Davies is full of jeopardy, joy and jellyfish! Firebloom is a bright and brilliant standalone novel set in the same imagined world as Haarville.
