Like a middle-grade H.G.Wells!' Kieran Larwood, The World of Podkin OneEar 'A compelling adventure. Reuben lives in an observatory where his grandma searches the heavens for extra-terrestrial life. But why must he wear sunglasses all the time? And where has the unconscious, luminous girl he finds come from? Thrilling stuff, brimming with empathy.'

Highly original, this is an adventure story that instantly grabs your attention: strange, celestial and enormously engrossing.' Chris Soul
