The Keeper by Darragh Martin
A chosen boy falls into the fantastical world of ancient Irish myth and must use his powers to save his family. Oisín is not sure he wants to be Keeper of the Book of Magic – but when his little sister Sorcha is kidnapped by the Morrígan, a raven-goddess with a heart as dark as her feathers, he has to learn how to use the Book for good and save his sister.'A new star of the fantasy genre.. Kids will gobble up this magical treat. The Keeper is far too good for my liking. Martin must be stopped.'
-- Eoin ColferDarragh Martin grew up in Dublin, where he often daydreamed about the DART train going somewhere more magical than Howth Junction. He was given a Fulbright Scholarship to develop his writing in 2006 and has been living in New York City since, where he teaches literature at Columbia University, writes plays and admires trees. Darragh is represented by the Lisa Richards Agency and has a website at www.darraghmartin.com. This is his first novel for children.
