"Wildly original adventure from an author whose imagination seems boundless"
Sam Gayton is known for hugely inventive stories starring unusual heroes in unusual situations, but secured always in family and familiar emotions. World Weavers might be his most mind-expanding adventure yet, the story of a boy and two sisters in a world where everything can be stolen – your shadow, your hand, even the love your mother feels for you. It’s unsettling and gets progressively darker as the three fall under the power of a villain so strong, and so lacking in humanity, that he appears all-powerful.
The story opens in a dusty desert and often feels like a Western, quick draws and gun fights included, and ruthless though the baddie is, we know that what it takes to destroy him is courage, loyalty and words, because as Sam Gayton knows, words are where the real power lies.
Original, thought-provoking and with unforgettable characters, this other-world story is well worth exploring.
