Birdy is different. She wants answers.
Where do companions come from and what evil stalks them? Why do none of them remember anything prior to Arrival Day? And why is Birdy the only companion able to control light and read minds but unable to fly? Only the Elders have the answers. And they’re not talking.
Bodney’s differences have left him facing laughter and ridicule for fifteen years. Then one night, in a remarkable act of heroism, a powerful bond is forged between the two loners.
When the Gnarlacre colony is viciously attacked not even Arcadia’s magic can prevent devastation. After uncovering evidence, buried deep within the Elder’s mind, of a terrifying enemy from another world, Birdy realises that only she can offer hope to a mortally wounded rival. Her desperate plan will set in motion a chain of events that could lead to the destruction of the colony and, ultimately, Gnarlacre itself. It will test her newfound friendship to the limits, for it will take her and Bodney face to face with an ancient terror, lurking in the great oak’s forbidden Lower Reaches.
But Birdy has gazed into the foretelling flames and is struggling with a question. Once you have seen the future are you left with any choice?
Birdy is the first book in the Gnarlacre series – the tale of a young girl whose epic journey to discover her origins will change the fates of worlds.
