Charged with the magical atmosphere of Arthurian and Celtic myth, this saga of five novels is one of our favourite books ever. The Dark is Rising Sequence was written for children and young adults, but like all the best stories it is timeless and appealing to everyone regardless of age, depicting, as it does, the age-old conflict between light and darkness in a way that can only be described as 'real'. Simon, Jane, Barney and Will, guided by their mysterious Great-Uncle Merry, battle with the hidden forces of darkness and struggle to reclaim grail-treasures from their clutches. As we follow their story, we are drawn irresistibly into a world of mystery, magic and wonder, where the ancient powers with which the very soil of Britain is imbued, are vividly felt and experienced. Whether you're aged 10 or 110, you won't want this book to end!
'The best Christmas we ever remember was the one we spent reading this magical book! So don't let the recent Hollywood movie version put you off - this book is gazillions of times more magical!' Ann
