β¦ Synopsis
The Moon Child is an inventive and thrilling historical fantasy, set during the dark ages.βIt is a subtle and beguiling blend of magic and fantasy, combined with a historically accurate and well-researched background and deeply drawn, realistic characters that readers will be able to identify with. It is the story of the formation of an early medieval kingdom, of a clash between civilisation and barbarism and the beginning of the modern world. Is it also the story of Iwa, a young girl caught up in events that she can barely understand, and unseen dangers that threaten to destroy not only her but all those she holds dear. Ancient forces will collide; a child will wrestle with a dark destiny as evil gods seek to bring their dominion over the world. A terrible price will have to be paid... The Moon Child will take readers on an imaginative journey into the world of the ancient Slavs, giving an insight into a rarely understood but important era of European history. A story of action, adventure and mystery, it will appeal to readers of all types of fantasy, including lovers of Tolkien, Ursula le Guinn, Neil Gaiman and Philip Pullman.
