About this Item

Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Synopsis

LONGLISTED FOR THE TIMES/CHICKEN HOUSE CHILDREN'S FICTION COMPETITION 2017

The greatest danger of all, losing yourself, can happen very quietly in the world as if it was nothing at all....

"This astounding historical fiction, incorporating time-travel, magical realism and Victorian London, captivated my attention from the very first page and had captured my heart by the end of it. Following the stories of present day Io and her 19th century ancestor, Talia, The Living Memory explores the relationship between where we came from and where we are going." @DanniiElleReads at UnitedByPop.com

"A clever, well-crafted and entertaining read with two great young heroines brought together across the centuries by their startling powers over memory." Amazon.co.uk

"Took my imagination for a perfect ride!" A. Melcher

Review

"Mystery, suspense, historical fiction, fantasy and more! The concept and imagination behind the premise is fascinating and had me reading the entire book in practically one go! Would definitely recommend this book! Fantastic debut novel and I look forward to reading more!" Annie, Amazon "This is a beautifully written story that I'd recommend highly to anyone who enjoys fantasy and young adult fiction. The story follows Io, a yound girl who, through misusing her power to recall any memory from her past, gets stuck in the past, in Victorian London with her ancester Talia. The imagery used to describe Talia's imagination is really beautiful and it's also interesting to travel around the familiar streets of Victorian London with the characters. You get a real sense that Io and Talia both grow as the story progresses and as they begin to understand how to use their power." Yas, Goodreads
