In the kingdom of Fairyland-Below, preparations are underway for
the annual Revels . . . but aboveground, the creatures of Fairyland
are in no mood for a party. It has been a long time since young
September bid farewell to Fairyland, and she is excited to see it
again; but upon her return she is shocked to find that her friends
have been losing their shadows, and therefore their magic, to the
kingdom of Fairyland-Below... It spells certain disaster and
September won't stand for it. Determined to make amends, she
travels down into the underworld where, among creatures of ice and
moonlight, she encounters a face she recognizes all too well:
Halloween, the Hollow Queen. Only then does September realize what
she must do to save Fairyland from slipping into the mundane world
forever. Come and join in the Revels with September and her
friends. But be warned: in Fairyland-Below, even the best of
friends aren't always what they seem . . . Praise for The Girl Who
Circumnavigated Farilyand in a Ship of Her Own Making: 'A glorious
balancing act between modernism and the Victorian Fairy Tale, done
with heart and wisdom.' Neil Gaiman. 'An Alice in Wonderland for
the 21st century... So effortless, so vivid, so funny. Every page
has a phrase or observation to savour and her characters are
wondrous creations.' Sunday Telegraph. 'A charming modern
fairytale...with a knowing twinkle in its eye.' Telegraph. 'A whole
esoteric world of whimsy - Alice meets the Wizard of Oz meets the
Persephone story with a whiff of Narnia.' Independent on Sunday.
'Bundles of imagination and wry wit.' Financial Times.
