Full of romance and danger, this is an arresting adventure that slips effortlessly between our world and the dark world of the paranormal. Mackie Doyle is not what he seems. Despite his apparently normal life, Mackie is a Replacement; he comes from a sinister, underground world but was swapped at birth for a human baby.
Now sixteen, Mackie’s allergies are putting his human life at risk and he is drawn back to his old world. Can he see off the dark powers that threaten to engulf him?
Here's what two major best-selling authors thought of The Replacement:
"I loved this eerie and beautiful story of ugly things. It should be read aloud after
dark, at a whisper" - Maggie Stiefvater, author of Shiver.
"I so loved this book. Mackie Doyle is one of the sweetest, strangest, most
magnetic heroes I've read in a long time. He charmed me and his story kept me up
at night." - Lauren Kate, author of Fallen.
Mackie Doyle is The Replacement - left in the crib of a human baby sixteen years ago. He has been raised among us. But he is not one of us. Now, he must face the dark creatures of the slag heaps from which he came and find his rightful place - in our world or theirs.
