In this second action-packed and hilarious Weirdwood adventure by
William Shivering and Newbery Honor winner Christian McKay Heidicker
(Scary Stories for Young Foxes), two thieves and their ghost friend
wage a battle against a shadowy magical organization intent on opening a
Rift between the worlds of the living and the dead.
[W]ill delight and satiate those besotted with Harry Potter, Percy
Jackson, Artemis Fowl, Miss Peregrine, the Spiderwicks. --New York
Times Book Review on Thieves of Weirdwood
Fresh off of heroically saving their city from nightmarish monsters,
12-year-old reformed thieves Arthur and Wally are determined to join the
Wardens of Weirdwood--defenders of the border between the Real and
Imaginary worlds.
Their mission: defeat the Order of Eldar, a shadowy group that exploits
the creatures of the Fae for their own gain. When the Order opens what
seems to be a Rift between the worlds of the living and the dead, they
set up a menagerie of ghosts to make money off those grieving for their
lost loved ones.
As spirits begin to cross over into Kingsport, Arthur, Wally, and their
ghost companion, Breeth, will have to return a fleet of dead souls to
the other side of the Veil.
Perfect for fans of Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky and
Keeper of the Lost Cities.
