Wicked wolves and a grim governess threaten Bonnie and her cousin Sylvia when Bonnie's parents leave Willoughby Chase for a sea voyage. Left in the care of the cruel Miss Slighcarp, the girls can hardly believe what is happening to their once happy home. The servants are dismissed, the furniture is sold, and Bonnie and Sylvia are sent to a prison-like orphan school. It seems as if the endless hours of drudgery will never cease. With the help of Simon the gooseboy and his flock, they escape. But how will they ever get Willoughby Chase free from the clutches of the evil Miss Slighcarp?

A beautiful new paperback edition, featuring a delightful new Afterword by Lizza Aiken - Joan Aiken's daughter - on how the story came to be written, plus fascinating material from the author's archive to celebrate the 60th anniversary of this wild, evocative and timeless fantasy. A fast-paced Dickensian adventure set in an alternative 19th Century England - with wolves! In a period of English History that never happened, when Good King James III is on the throne, and the whole country is ravaged by wolves which have migrated through the newly-opened Channel Tunnel. Young orphans Bonnie and Sylvia fall into the hands of evil Miss Slighcarp, they need all their wits - and the help of Simon the goose-boy - to escape unscathed, for the governess is more cruel and merciless than the wolves that surround the great house of Willoughby Chase. Illustrated by Pat Marriot and filled with brilliantly-drawn Dickensian characters The Wolves of Willoughby Chase makes an excellent choice for confident pre-teen readers who like a strong plot and good characterisation. The Wolves of Willoughby Chase often appears on lists of the best books for children such as The Telegraph's Top 100 Best Children's Books and the BBC's 100 Books to Read before You're Fourteen.

Después de la inolvidable Los lobos de Willoughby Chase , esta es la siguiente entrega de la serie que Joan Aiken ambientó en una imaginaria Inglaterra del siglo XIX, en la que gobierna un rey estuardo y los lobos corren a sus anchas por los valles y bosques de la isla. Un auténtico clásico moderno de la narrativa de aventuras. Simon llega a Londres con la ilusión de estudiar pintura, pero el amigo que debía acogerlo en su habitación ha desaparecido sin dejar rastro. Convencido de que los caseros ocultan algo, Simon se propone aclarar el misterio y pronto se verá envuelto en un maquiavélico complot ideado por un grupo de rufianes que intentan derrocar al rey Jacobo y acabar con los duques de Battersea, en cuya mansión trabaja su vieja amiga Sophie. Es una época de villanos implacables, en la que los peligros afloran por doquier, entre ellos los lobos salvajes, pasteles envenenados y hasta un naufragio. Aun así, lo más inesperado está por llegar: tras el laberinto de intrigas e infortunios que lo acosan, Simon descubrirá una verdad tan asombrosa como desconcertante. La crítica ha dicho... «Sencillamente, una maravilla.» The New Yorker «Un derroche de insólitas aventuras vividas por unos personajes entrañables y de aires dickensianos en una época apasionante [...]. Una pequeña obra maestra que emociona, conmueve y entretiene.» The New York Times
