About this listen

The next action-packed FIREBORN adventure

‘The best kind of children’s fantasy story: thrilling and imaginative’ B. B. Alston, author of Amari and the Night Brothers

‘The perfect balance of high adventure, breathless action and eerie wonder’ Jonathan Stroud, author of the Bartimaeus trilogy

HOPE GROWS FROM THE ASHES …

Twelve has chosen a Hunter name to reflect her elemental powers: Phoenix. When she and her friends learn that the witch-palace of Icegaard is in grave danger, they must battle frightening new monsters and find a way to defeat the evil force.

But as Phoenix tries to control her fiery powers, the faceless Croke begins to haunt her dreams and she will have to fight with everything she’s got to save Icegaard and all of Ember.

The adventure continues in Starling and the Cavern of Light, the third and final book in the FIREBORN series.

'Frightening new monsters and mighty challenges aplenty await Twelve, as the glorious, big-hearted Fireborn-saga from the former Waterstones Children’s Book of the Month author continues' Waterstones, Books You Need to Read in 2023

'Brilliant, epic, exhilarating! A sequel that is even better than its predecessor – I absolutely loved it' Hannah Gold

Loved the narration, love how all the voices bring the characters to life, well acted out, Great adventure, love the relationships between the young characters and the little light moments they share in between the more stressful scenes. I just love The Guardian, ‘Dog’ - please don’t let anything happen to him. Note for Mums previewing the books for their children, some parts of the book do get quite dark and if your child is a bit sensitive maybe bear in mind how The Master speaks into the minds of the characters - it can be a bit scary especially if your child already has a fear of the dark. Otherwise it’s good, looking forward to the next one in the series.

Great adventure, lovely strong female leads

Both my KS2 students and I have thoroughly enjoyed reading and listening to this after our virtual author event with Aisling Fowler last year. They really engaged with the themes of the texts, related to the characters and it genuinely sparked their creativity for creating their own fantasy worlds, characters and creatures. This second book was darker in nature and has left Phoenix and her friends finely balanced in the fight for Ember. We can't wait to read/hear the next installment.

Another incredible chapter!
