Revenge of the Misfits

LoveReading4Kids Says

Thrilling, atmospheric and funny (the whip-smart modern dialogue adds sprightliness to a classic quest scenario), Revenge of the Misfits brings Jamie Littler’s Arkspire series to a showstopping finale.

Having been wrongly labelled a traitor, Juniper is far from home -  exiled and alone in the barren Badlands. “A harsh place at the best of times”, Juniper feels in her gut that she’s being followed by a Shade. “’I know you’re out there,’ she whispered as she ran.

‘You sneaky-ghosty-stalker-thingy’”. With only a rat for company, the pet of Madame Adie, her oldest friend, though lonely and somewhat broken, the irrepressible, stubborn Juniper resolves to “make the Arcanists pay for what they’d done… She’d avenge Mama and Madame Adie and all the lives ruined by the Arcanists. She’d clear her name and save her friends and family”.

So far, so rousing and fans of exhilarating character-led fantasy will be at Juniper’s side every springy step of the way, thrilled by her fearless quest to save the city and her loved ones, thoroughly entertained by her funny remarks and devilishly daring nature, and galvanised by a glorious story of good-versus-evil.
