The Glassmaker's Children

Stellan thinks his life is 'more or less perfect', until the day he uncovers the identity of the mysterious sorcerer who has been plaguing the village. He then finds his life shattered and has to make the most difficult choices he's ever faced. Who can he trust, now everyone around him seems to have changed? Perhaps the only safe place is the one he invented to amuse Ruby Rose, his little sister. But that is just a figment of his imagination - or is it? Gradually, Stellan discovers a powerful magic of his own. Will it be strong enough, though, to protect the people he cares about? This is a warm, affirming but deeply affecting story that will resonate with any child who has had to face a family break-up, betrayal or loss of trust. It also reaches out to everyone who would like to find and develop their own inner magic and to create rather than simply experience life. It looks with compassion and honesty at the emotions stirred when a child feels ashamed of or disappointed in a parent, while still loving them. At the same time, it tells of a journey into the unknown with new places to explore, new people to meet and the realisation that life can't really go anywhere without changes.
