A truly excellent, exciting book which ticks all the boxes as far as I'm concerned! Aimed at older children and young teens (not to mention 65 year old grandmothers always on the lookout for exciting children's fiction for my family), Michelle Harrison has pulled out all the stops and written a modern classic. The story revolves around the three Widdershins sisters who live with their grandmother on Crowstone and find, to their horror that thanks to a curse, they are all stuck on Crowstone, should they ever leave they will die by the end of the day. The only good thing is that in addition to the curse, they will also inherit a magical gift each, but what good is that if they can't go anywhere unless they can find a way to break the curse? Unfortunately the curse is over 100 years ago and nobody's broken it yet! Michelle Harrison has a real gift for magical adventures. I listened to the audio version, beautifully read by Nicky Diss, exceptional!
