Runcible Jones and the Frozen Compass
About this ebook
On a freezing winter’s night, Lord Shambles shatters the tower where the children are learning magic.
Runcible, Mariam and their friends run for their lives. All Iltior now lies in the dreaded sorcerer’s hands and, as soon as he steals the children’s unique magic, he will attack Earth.
As they are hunted across Iltior, Runcible realises that there is only one way to attack their enemy.
The children must sneak into his terrible fortress and there Runcible has to take on Shambles, the greatest sorcerer in the world, all by himself.
