Stormchaser Reviews

"Action-packed"--"The Guardian""Chris Riddell's superb illustrations are part and parcel of Paul Stewart's excellent fantasy series, The Edge Chronicles. The second, Stormchaser, is as action-packed as its predecessor"--"Guardian""For children who've read the Harry Potter books and want another world to explore.. Just fantasy and adventure, and wonderful line drawings"--"Mail on Sunday""Stewart's compulsive storytelling, perfectly complemented by Riddells' fine-lined illustrations, makes it all good stuff"--amazon.co.uk (website Jan 2000)"The story and the vast array of characters are captivating. .I became totally engrossed in this tale of young Twig, the quest for stormphrax, the worldscape and the landscape. The structure of the plot is as delicately poised as a sky-floating rock and the exuberant detail gives constant delight. This is more than a read; it kidnaps and transports the reader"--"The School Librarian"
