the legend of podkin one ear series in order

This is a very different sort of book from Podkin One Ear – slightly older in flavour perhaps – a little darker and is a wonderful tale.Īs always the characters are a little different – our heroes are certainly a mixed bunch – with very different strengths and weaknesses…let alone species. A gorgeous book to look at and own and a fantastic story too… The proof I did receive has, what I think will be the endpapers of the finished book, as a cover – and Christopher Wormell’s cartography is frankly superb – as to his chapter heading illustrations (particularly the one for Chapter 8) – they will make the book physically very, very special. There is something about Kieran’s imagination – his ideas are full of detail – and as with The Legend of Podkin One Ear, it is partially that, which makes this book so glorious. ‘He built the world from leftover mouse guts….’

In this case – the book is certainly enough – but the above illustration of how some were sent out actually complement it – which is lovely to see. Many times, I wish they wouldn’t – the sweets a distraction, almost as though they don’t believe the book, the story is enough. Often publishers add a little something to books they send out as proofs. I would have had to ask if I could have a second, which would have been greedy. ‘One of the best books I have ever read.Sadly, my proof didn’t arrive like this – I wish it had – though I probably wouldn’t have wanted to open it. ‘Kieran Larwood’s talent and his passion for his wonderful characters leap off every page.’ David Long, author of Survivors
