Description

It's midwinter in the countryside, the day before Will's eleventh birthday. But the animals are behaving strangely and there is a pervading sense of fear. The evil magic of the Dark is growing more powerful. This will be a birthday like no other. Will is the last of the Old Ones. And he must embark on a quest to save the world from a fate so terrible, it is beyond imagining.
