‘Gloriously cinematic and completely enthralling’ – Independent
Five years have passed. The city of Aramanth has become kinder – weaker. When the ruthless soldiers of the Mastery strike, the city is burned, and the Manth people are taken into slavery. Kestrel is left, separated from her brother Bowman, and vowing revenge. Fantasy books for children don’t get more spectacular than Slaves of the Mastery.

One of the greatest writers of our time, William Nicholson has not only sold millions of children’s books worldwide, but he has also written for the screen and the stage, including the Oscar-winning film Gladiator and the BAFTA-winning play Shadowlands.
