From the Inside Flap:
Six children leave the comfort of their homes far behind. They are drawn to Coldharbour - an eerie wasteland of wind, rats, seagulls and rubbish tips.
About the Author:
Emily and Freda, the twins, scuttle bright-eyed and insect-like in search of the others. They find Thomas half-starving on a food tip. They discover the giant boy, Walter, his hands buried in the ashes of a fire. Helen, who can read minds, reaches Coldharbour at the height of a storm to join them. And at the centre of it all is the luminous Milo, whose eyes see eveything and whose skin is hot and bright with silver.
Each of them has a unique gift, but they must learn to use their skills fast. Drawing ever closer in a maelstrom of fury is something vast and dreadful that wants to destroy them all.
The Silver Child is the first novel in Cliff's McNish's heart-stopping new sequence. A spectacular story to sweep you into a fantasy world full of vividly drawn characters and richly imagined, breathtaking adventure.
Cliff McNish is the author of the highly successful Doomspell trilogy. The Doomspell, The Scent of Magic and The Wizard's Promise won him an instant and avid readership and he was hailed as 'a great new voice in writing for children' (The Bookseller). The trilogy is published in fourteen languages around the world.
Cliff was born in Sunderland in the Northeast of England. He enjoys playing golf, walking up mountains and eating as much hot and spicy food as possible.
Cliff is married and has a teenage daughter, Rachel.
Cliff McNish was born in Sunderland, but has spent most of his life in the southeast of England. His daughter Rachel loved to hear stories from an early age. The Doomspell started as one of these. 'But before I knew what was happening,' says Cliff, 'the whole magical world of Ithrea just wanted to come to life in a bigger way. It wanted to live!'
