Produktbeschreibung

A breathtaking new fantasy world from the award-winning author of The Last Wild. In an empire of vampirs and werwolves, Tibor and Roza are hunting a treasure more valuable than gold ... For readers who loved Katherine Rundell's Impossible Creatures or S.F. Said's Tyger.

CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE YEAR in The Times, New Statesman and Daily Mail: 'But really Midnight Treasure feels like The Hobbit- with extra fangs and fur... The writing is terrific and Torday has a talent for cliffhangers... Enchanting.' The Times

'Stop the hunt for your next epic read because this is a treasure of a fantasy book. High stakes, big heart, frightfully good' A.F. Steadman, author of the Skandar series

'Breathless, bold and endlessly imaginative' Jonathan Stroud

'Fabulous' Daily Mail

Tibor is a werwolf, adopted by his guardian, a powerful vampir. He and his friend Roza are on the deadliest of quests, and one that will test their very immortality. And they're not the only ones hunting for the Midnight Treasure. Battling with bears, wrestling with vampirs and racing against the clock, Tibor and Roza must decide who to trust. And whether they will dare reveal the secrets ... of the Midnight Treasure.

From the award-winning Piers Torday comes this spectacular, irresistible treasure hunt: there will be clues, spells, imprisonments and escapes, fights, betrayals ... but above all there will be courage and hope.
