Join best friends Bitsy and Kosh on a round-the-world adventure like no other!
When Bitsy's dad is kidnapped by a woman with a giant hamstoceros, Bitsy and best friend Kosh are swept into a secret world of strange beasts called magicores, each conjured using a different emotion. With the help of a powerful magical book called Magicalia, they must quickly become conjurers themselves, before following a trail of clues in a race against a mysterious villain.
I have long been a fan of Jennfier's books, whether that's the Crooked Sixpence series, or the Wonderscape books, so I was thrilled to discover she's penned a new series set in a world that combines magic, science and emotions.
Magicalia Race of Wonders starts with a bang, and within three pages, you've been introduced to a hamstoceros and you are desperate to know exactly what's going on! By the end of chapter one, Bitsy's house looks like a whirlwind has hit it, her dad has been kidnapped and you are completely hooked! What follows is a fast-paced, gripping adventure that introduces you to a whole new world. With a host of new creatures to discover (some of which are beautifully illustrated as chapter headings), the book is full of imaginative twists in a race across the world. With friendship, family and truly evil villains to keep you on your toes, this is a book that is going to enchant readers.
Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Skandar, Inside Out, Nevermoor and His Dark Materials, Magicalia Race of Wonders is a book that will leave readers wanting more.
