The Thirteen Curses
Return to the world of fairies with Tanya, Fabian and Red in this enchanting sequel to The Thirteen Treasures.
The second instalment in the fairy-filled Thirteen Treasures trilogy, full of fairies, magic and pure adventure from Waterstones Children's Book Prize winner Michelle Harrison.
When fairies stole her brother, Red vowed to get him back. Now trapped in the fairy realm, she begs an audience with the fairy court where she strikes a bargain. Her brother will be returned – but only if she can find the thirteen charms of Tanya's bracelet that have been scattered in the human world. Returning to Elvesden Manor, Red is assisted by Tanya and Fabian and a desperate hunt begins.
Soon they make a shocking discovery. The charms now have twisted qualities of the thirteen treasures they represent – the thirteen treasures have now become the thirteen curses. The longer they are missing, the worse the consequences will be.
Can Red, Tanya and Fabian find all the charms? And even if they do, will the fairies keep their promise?
The perfect series for fans of Katherine Rundell and Sophie Anderson!
