Sebastian Darke: Prince of Explorers

Deep in the remote heart of the jungles of Mendip, Sebastian, Max and Cornelius are in search of a legendary lost city. On route, they encounter the Jilith, a race of warriors locked in a deadly struggle with their mortal enemies, the fierce and brutal Gograth.

Can Cornelius train the Jilith to defeat their enemies? Why does jungle girl, Keera think she knows Sebastian? Can Max avoid being turned into spare ribs?

And, if they ever find the Lost City, can the three friends survive the ravages of the Night Runners - terrifying creatures that are already dead . . . ?

Reviews

It's stirring stuff! Story is everything here. Fans will not be disappointed and it should make new converts to the series

—— Books for Keeps

Definitely another hit book from this super duo whose use of diverse characters breaks the mould.

—— City Kids

This is a fast-paced and exciting adventure, featuring a Victorian-style otherworld, that will appeal to fans of the Harry Potter and Chrestomanci series . . . the book will appeal to both girls and boys. This is an extremely enjoyable read and a well-deserving addition to the magical fantasy genre

A wonderfully intriguing mystery . . . Uncommonly good!

Weird, whacky and utterly wonderful. Go to Lundinor. You won't ever want to come back

An auspicious trilogy opener

Lots of fun, full of character, and great for the imagination

The Crooked Sixpence is a wonderful addition to our school library, and one that I can't wait to recommend
