'Enchanting' Independent 'Joyously imaginative' Cressida Cowell,
author of How to Train Your Dragon Fourth in the modern-classic and
bestselling bookwandering series for readers aged eight to twelve
that celebrates all that is best in life: books, adventure,
friendship - and cake. Milo lives on board the Sesquipedalian, or
"Quip" - a magical train that uses the power of imagination to
travel through both Story and the real world. The train is owned by
Milo's uncle, Horatio, and Milo has witnessed many of his uncle's
dodgy dealings as a book smuggler trading in rare books. When
Horatio takes on a dangerous new job, he needs the help of Tilly
Pages. And Tilly owes Horatio a favour. But when poisoned copies of
The Wizard of Oz are sent to Horatio and Tilly's grandfather,
sending them both into deep sleeps, Milo and Tilly find themselves
racing against time to save them - and to figure out what is going
on. Their journey takes them to the Emerald City with Dorothy,
rocketing on the unruly Quip, and eventually to Venice in Italy, in
pursuit of the mysterious Alchemist. The very essence of
imagination, story itself, may be in danger . . .
