Stone Heart by Charlie Fletcher
Aug. 1st, 2009 03:13 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
"Deep in the City something had been woken, something so old and so ordinary that people had been walking past it for centuries without giving it a second look ... "
When George breaks a small dragon carving from the Natural History Museum he finds himself plunged into a world he can't understand: racing for survival in a city where scupltures and stone carvings move and fight, where it's impossible to know who to trust and where nothing is what it seems.
Enter the original and breathtaking world of this epic adventure, the first of an exciting three book sequence, and you'll never see the city in the same way again ...
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Take a really original concept, mix it with some excellent writing and put in a darkly fascinating pair of villains and you have a recipe for an entertaining fantasy read that will be loved for years to come.
