<p>¿It¿s a rotten old job being King!¿ says Dido Twite. Her friend King Simon agrees ¿ his scheming courtiers want to marry him off to a pushy princess, <i>and</i> he has to lead his army against a tribe of invading Wends. <br><br>Their only hope is to find a long-lost heir to take Simon¿s place on the throne of England, with the help of failed witch Malise and her prophesying parrot.<br><br>The last book in the series that first introduced Simon as the hero of <i>The Wolves of Willoughby Chase</i> is a helter-skelter of battles, vicious villains and mysterious monsters, packed full of magic and humour. If you don¿t know the <i>Wolves Chronicles</i>, this gives a wonderful taste of Joan Aiken¿s fantastic world ¿ and you still have all the rest to discover!</p>
