The Raven's Eye Runaways

Author(s): Claire Mabey

Upper Primary

A gripping, beautifully-told fantasy quest set in a parallel medieval world.


Three friends and a one-eyed raven find themselves up against the rulers who restrict the gifts of writing and reading to an elite few.

They must go on a wild and unpredictable rescue mission. Who and what will they meet along their way? And what is the terrible truth behind everything they think they know about their world?
