This is also a beautiful piece of bookmaking, from the woodblock-style design elements to the manuscript-like paper.
Scuffles and sacrifices, ferocious animals, and dastardly thieves abound as Boy and Secundus are slowly revealed to readers-and each other. Real history and exquisite imagination, soaraway fantasy and Christian theology blend with spectacular results in a highly original and utterly beguiling middle grade novel. This stunning historical novel really grips the attention and offers an unexpected and exciting read. Murdock celebrates everyday tenderness amid the otherworldly and celestial.
Extraordinary mixture of the historical and fantastic.
