This is not it. The world you know — normal, safe, boring — is just a stepping stone to other worlds, other places. Places of magic, monsters and limitless imagination. Like most eleven year olds, Charlie Whittaker always hoped this was true. Now he knows it is. Because somebody’s kidnapped his Uncle and he’s forced to give chase. Leaving normality far behind… He will make friends on the way: the enigmatic Lashram, the absurd Squintillion, the noble Algernon. He will see sights that will make the wildest dreams of his life seem bland. But will he survive long enough to enjoy them? There are horrors out there, ravenous cannibals, lethal assassins and, of course The High Lord Jethryk — a man who wears shadows torn from his victims and could snuff out all life in the universe using no more than his smooth fingertips. There is, in fact, only one power Jethryk doesn’t possess, a power he intends to steal from Charlie’s uncle. By whatever means necessary. It’s all about story you see, and the power of imagination, one false word and creation as we know it will cease to exist… The Imagineer is a beautifully illustrated novel that hearkens back to the child in all of us, a modern fairytale that will excite older children and adults alike. There are other worlds to explore: sometimes wonderful, sometimes terrifying, always spectacular. All you have to do is believe…
