"Rethink heroes in this enthralling new fantasy adventure"
Casander Darkbloom is a hero, but not the kind we’re used to. As his story begins, he’s homeless and living in the shelter of an antiques/curio shop, waking every morning with no memory of the previous day. He’s also affected by uncontrolled twitching in his limbs. Dragged into another world by a young girl called Warrior, he finds his memory returns, though the shaking continues.
But more, in Wayward, gateway to the Balance Lands, and specifically at Wayward School, he’s greeted as the Foretold, and revealed to have huge and unique powers. Even this is just the beginning however.
Such power as Cas has will attract enemies and even in the dormitories and library of the school it’s hard to know where is safe, who to trust. This is an exciting adventure full of twists and surprises with humour alongside moments of real drama. It’s certain to enthrall readers as they follow Cas on his path to becoming the Chosen One.
The first in an extraordinary middle-grade fantasy series that takes the traditional "chosen one" narrative and flips it on its head. Think Nevermoor and The School for Good and Evil, but with a thrilling twist!
