Εκδότης Bloomsbury , ISBN 9781526629395
From the author of the New York Times No. 1 bestseller The Magicians comes a timeless new children's adventure aboard a magical steam train.
The Silver Arrow is the story of Kate and her younger brother Tom who are gifted a colossal locomotive train, the Silver Arrow, by their mysterious uncle. Before they can say 'All Aboard!' the two siblings are whisked off on adventure of a lifetime accompanied by a magical group of talking animals. With only curiosity and the thrill of the unknown to guide them, Kate and Tom not only see more of the world than ever before, but also discover they may have an important role in saving it.
The Silver Arrow is the perfect book for our time. Its mix of classic adventure and magic will give young readers a feel-good escape while imparting some very important messages about the care we need to give to our own world.
Of his debut children's book Lev Grossman said, 'My inspiration for The Silver Arrow was the work of storytellers like Roald Dahl and Hayao Miyazaki, who spun dark, magical tales about kids who suspected there was more to the world than adults would admit, and who wound up discovering they were right. I wanted to write a version of that story that would be timeless, but also fit the world we live in now.'
