Catherine Doyle has created a magical story that will delight young readers looking for a fresh fantasy. BOOK OF THE MONTH - the much awaited latest installment in this popular diary-style series for ages 7+.

After a few chapters, however, they were completely drawn in by the magical prose, and several of the children compared the book to Francis Hardinge’s writing. Fionn’s unease only grows when he senses the powerful magic of Arranmore from the moment of his arrival, but no one had taken the time to warn him. Doyle's writing glows, with the pitch-perfect barbs the young people sling at each other, the atmospheric weather events, her masterfully delineated characters - including the island itself - and a page-turning plot. Doyle infuses every aspect of the novel with the richness of Irish folklore and culture: readers will be captivated by descriptions of the Island's beauty and magical history .

But Fionn’s grandfather is getting weaker in his old age, and the island is looking for a new Storm Keeper to tackle the storm brewing at its core. Once in a generation, Arranmore Island chooses a new Storm Keeper to wield its power and keep its magic safe from enemies.
