When Fairy Queen Sylvie snatches his brother, schoolboy Jack is plunged into a sinister fantasy world of illusion and deception - the realm of telepathic fairies ruled by spoilt, arrogant fairy queens.

Haunted by nightmares about his brother and pursued by a mysterious tramp (only seen by Jack and his friends) Jack fears he too will be stolen away.

The tramp is Thomas the Rhymer, who only speaks in rhyme. Lost and frightened Thomas needs Jack's help to find his way home.

The race is on for Jack and his friends to save Thomas from the wicked Agnes Day (who wants to treat Thomas like a lab rat) and save Jack's brother from Sylvie.

To do this they need the help of Bess - the most ancient powerful fairy queen in the land.

But there is a problem

No one knows where Bess is or even if she is still lives.

And even if they find her will she let them go?

What's been said about Thomas the Rhymer

"This is a terrific story, beautifully written with great imagination and gentle humour. The plot is well crafted and cleverly interweaves fantasy with reality. The momentum is maintained throughout the book, with action on every page. The human characters are solid and believable and the fairies are cleverly portrayed as being powerful while at the same time vulnerable"

"A real page-turner - full of excitement and wonder"

"The climax is absolutely brilliant, not only magic, imagery, spells and incantations, but gives a feeling of real danger too. And there is a terrific sting in the tail"

"The story is written in such a way that it is easy for young readers to follow - without being patronising - while at the same time older lovers of fantasy will appreciate its subtlety, vividness and comedy"
