Readers will race along with Gwyn in this fantastic magical adventure to rescue Emlyn and his family before it's too late!

Review:
Loved it, loved it, LOVED IT! It was lovely that the story moved away from Gwyn (the main character in the first book) and encompassed other children (even though Gwyn played a major part in it). The story was every bit as magical and filled with mystery as the first.

This is one of those series that never really dates, despite being very much of its time – the magic of the story, the attractiveness of the characters and the reader’s sympathy and involvement in their adventures makes this a must-read for all adults who would like a little of their childhood sparkle rekindled, and also for children who enjoy a bit of whimsy.
