Twelve-year-old thieves Arthur and Wally are determined to steal their
way up the ranks of the notorious Black Feathers gang. With loan sharks
chasing after Arthur's father and Wally's brother's hospital bill due,
they're in need of serious cash. Fast.
When Arthur spots some wealthy strangers exiting a seemingly deserted
mansion, he smells an opportunity for a big score. Little do the boys
realize, they've stumbled upon Weirdwood Manor, the headquarters of a
magical order who protect the Balance between the Real and Imaginary
worlds. When Kingsport is besieged by nightmarish creatures, it's up to
a pair of thieves to save their city.
Filled with giant tentacle monsters and heroes literally ripped from the
pages of adventure stories, this imagination-bending series is perfect
for fans of Keeper of the Lost Cities, Aru Shah, and Nevermoor.
"An imaginative, page-turning adventure." --Shannon Messenger, New York
Times bestselling author of Keeper of the Lost Cities
