On a world where 99.9 per cent of the population have magic Cressida Widdershins often feels left out because she's about as magical as a turnip. But when a school trip presents her with a magic book she feels her time has come. Unfortunately dark forces are also after the book; shadow beings with vast powers and their assassin, a man who can turn people to stone. The phrase "be careful what you wish for" springs to mind... This is the first volume in the Cressida Widdershins series. I'd recommend it for children aged 10 and up, and for anyone who enjoyed Harry Potter.

Yes it's worth it!
Here is a writer who loves to play with imaginary worlds through everyday concepts, making them almost plausible! The characters are real - you love them and hate them - the places could be in your town, emotions run high, and you are left wondering what will happen next, and where DLD's other writings will lead you.
