The brand new and final novel from the magical pen of 'the
Godmother of Fantasy', Diana Wynne Jones; co-authored with her
sister Ursula Jones. How are you supposed to turn into a Wise Woman
if your powers just won't show up? Aileen is convinced she'll never

and rescue the kidnapped High Prince from the enemy, and Aileen
must go with her. They set off along with Ivar, Aileen's spoilt
cousin, and Ogo his clophopping servant, recruiting on their way a
huge and elusive cat, a monk with an uncannily wise parrot, and a
boy inventor who keeps a pet lizard up his sleeve. But this is no
band of mighty warriors, and the evil Lograns and their wizards
have blocked their way with an invisible barrier in the sea. Aileen
doubts that even with all the magic in the Islands of Chaldea,
including Aunt Beck's, they will be able to penetrate it. But
Aileen is about to discover that she could be more important to the
mission than she realises. Perhaps it is her, above all, who is
being drawn to Logra, and for a very special purpose...
