Danny Spring: Refugelf, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A fatal decision. A mother's sacrifice. A perilous journey. A ruthless enemy.

The sleepy town of Sealside is in for one hell of an awakening.

Ragged teenager Rashnala is caught scavenging from the school bins by newly qualified and big-hearted teacher Barb. He communicates telepathically-and claims he's an elf on the run. Barb suspects trauma-based delusion-or that she's losing her own marbles. However, neither is true. Rashnala isn't telling a fairy story. At least, not the kind humans think of. He's fled the fae dimension, long ruled by The Monarch, a sadistic goblin whose cruelty has driven all other fae into hiding-or extinction. Now, stranded in the human world, Rashnala must survive not only its baffling rules and alien rituals but also new enemies: the Singer Sisters, tyrannical rulers of Sealside Academy and beyond.

One foot in the past, one foot in the present, no matter how far Rashnala runs, some evils refuse to be left behind.

From the co-creator of hit BBC sci-fi drama, World's End and writer of Nickelodeon's supernatural and adventure series' House of Anubis and Hunter Street comes a darkly humorous, heart-tugging urban fantasy full of adventure, oddballs, buttered crumpets... and displaced faeries.

Some passages contain descriptions of bullying, violence, death and a brief moment of self-harm, which some readers may find distressing.
