The exhilarating conclusion to the SILVER SEQUENCE: the final confrontation between good and evil in Coldharbour.
The Roar is getting closer and closer to the earth, ready to attack, her hungry newborn in the waiting.
Alongside the silver child Milo, who is hovering protectively over them, Helen, Thomas, Walter, the twins and litte Jenny lead the children of Coldharbour in the battle against the Roar.
Meanwhile, Carnac threatens from below, but the Unearthers, with drills for hands, stand ready for him. And the Protector under the oceans is on the children's side, bringing its wisdom and strength to bear on the battle.
Cliff McNish brings the magical SILVER SEQUENCE to a thrilling conclusion in this atmospheric fantasy.
Praise for Silver Sequence: Silver World
-
McNish has an extraordinary, inventive mind, matched by his skill in translating ideas, characters and raw emotions onto the page ... Silver World offers a wholly satisfying conclusion to the trilogy ... takes the reader into uncharted territory, manipulating language in the most extraordinary way. - THE GUARDIAN
-
An outstanding fantasy novel for a wide readership ... McNish's imagination is extraordinary; the atmosphere is, by turn, both exciting and chilling; colourful and compelling. An irresistible fantasy with a tremendous climax. - CAROUSEL
-
Extraordinarily inventive ... The characters are so rich and heart-warming, the suspense so gripping and intense that I couldn't out the book down. I fervently recommend this fantastic conclusion to a brilliant trilogy. - TEEN TITLES
-
Tense action sequences blossom into a joyous, fulfilling conclusion, but it is the imagery - lyrical, mysterious, haunting - that will linger. - THE HORN BOOK GUIDE
