Julia Eccleshare's comment:
Dazzling entertainment and seamless storytelling from the winner of the Guardian Book of the Year Award 2010 with Ghost Hunter, the final title in the quite superb Chronicles of Ancient Darkness series. To celebrate the culmination of the series the complete six adventures in Torak's quest to vanquish the terrifying Soul-Eaters: WOLF BROTHER, SPIRIT WALKER, SOUL EATER, OUTCAST, OATH BREAKER and GHOST HUNTER in a superb, limited edition, boxed set.Our very own Julia Eccleshare was chair of the judges for the Guardian Book Award and said, “Whatever the individual judges thought about fantasy before they began Ghost Hunter – and some admitted to hating it! – they were immediately captivated by Michelle’s brilliantly created world, her wonderfully dramatic story and her powerful story telling. They loved the way she described the world she has been fashioning throughout the series saying, “The language is inventive and rich. Sharp and poetic but also child friendly”. They also adored her characters describing Wolf as “endearing” and the people as “real”. Finally, one summed Ghost Hunter up in terms of awe: “The construct of the world is amazing. I am jealous and impressed!”
