About this listen
The second novel in a brilliant fantasy adventure series from the best-selling author of The Huntress trilogy. Perfect for readers 8-12 and fans of Philip Pullman, Abi Elphinstone and Katherine Rundell.
Bea Grimspuddle may not be a dreamstalker yet, but she’s already a hero in the magical city of Silvervein after she and her friends defeated the terrifying Queen of Nightmares. And now she’s about to begin her dreamstalking apprenticeship and prove she can be part of the secret dream-crafting guild for real…
The dreamstalkers have taken to the skies, basing themselves a giant air ship in a bank of clouds. Aboard the Sky Ship, Bea finds a marvellous world of technology, magic and secrets – but there’s also a lot to learn, and some students are resentful of her star status. And Bea soon has even bigger worries… when dreamers begin to disappear, dangerous creatures leak into the waking world and a strange boy falls out of a dream, refusing to speak a word, the disasters and chaos are blamed on Bea, and she is excluded from her guild before she can prove herself.
As a dark power closes in, and with her guild refusing to listen, Bea and a small crew of friends are forced to undertake their own race through the skies. But can they reach the ancient dragon scrys in time… or will a familiar enemy get there first?
