The Wildkeepers' Guest

Nigel Grimshaw

4.9/5 (26027 ratings)

Description:When Munch and Proser found the boy Karl unconscious and injured they felt obliged to take him to their home in the rock-holes, though they knew from bitter experience that contact with men usually spelt trouble for the Wildkeepers, that small, ancient, rough-living race. The danger was even greater than they realized, for Karl was not in fact mortal; he was an Otherworlder, and his enemy, also in human shape, was bent on destruction.While the Wildkeepers cared for Karl, Frank Slatter appeared in the village of Brayberrow. Unprepossessing at first sight, he still had a curious charm that won everyone over—everyone but Joan Flagg, whose uncanny insight warned her against him. And so Joan found herself aligned with the Wildkeepers and their guest in a struggle which her kindly aunt and uncle couldn't begin to comprehend.The Times described the author's first book, Bluntstone and the Wildkeepers, as 'an original mixture of humour and thoughtful magicking, full of memorable denizens and springy phrases'. The Wildkeepers' Guest is a darker, more dramatic story, but the Wildkeepers are as memorable and their phrases as springy as before.Jacket designed by Dennis LeeWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
