Little do Jack, Jamie and suspicious Ellie know they are in for adventures most people only dream about!
Jamie, Jack and Ellie’s mother is a drug addict spending time with her latest boyfriend. The children are sent to live with their father and his new family when Social Services discover the children living by themselves. At their fathers’ home they finally get good food and a good nights’ sleep.
The next day, Jack and Jamie find two old dinghies in the shed in their fathers back garden. They decide to blow them up and go rowing on Grave Brook. Of course, Ellie insists on going along. A swan swims up beside them, topples the dinghy and pushes Jack underwater. In fact, the swan sits on Jack to make sure he stays underwater. Is this the end for Jack? What will happen to Jamie and Ellie? He wakes up in a strange land and to his surprise; Jamie and Ellie are with him. Where are they? Wet, and cold, the children are made to appear before the Gnome King where they are made to work in his hot kitchens!
One day, Jamie is told about a way to escape the cruel gnomes. The three children make a break for it that night.
Jamie, Jack and Ellie wander into a barren wasteland and soon meet the mysterious Hadi. Who is Hadi and what does he want with them? Hadi is very kind to the children but insists on taking them to the Oracle. He also says that it will be a long hard journey.
They travel for days and finally meet the Oracle. The Oracle sends them on a mission to free the Swan Princess. He says that will make everything right again.
Along the way, they meet giants, fairies, elves, flying horses and a lot more! Will Jamie, Jack, Ellie and their new friends free the Swan Princess?
Lookman leads us step by step through this magical world and is right beside us through all of Jamie, Jack and Ellie’s adventures. This is a book that fantasy lovers everywhere will want to read!
