Pangur Ban, The White Cat by Fay Sampson

Breathless, tumbling fantasy. The mixture of epic poetry, heroism, and suspense should enchant 10 to 13s. -- The Guardian


Now Now you shall see what happens to those who would break the spell of mermaids


Fleeing the king's justice for his accidental crime, the monk Niall has been bewitched by mermaids in the underwater realm, while vengeful Princess Finnglas is in the grip of a terrifying sea monster. Pangur B n, the white cat, is desperate. He must rescue them-but how?


Only Arthmael can do it.


But who is Arthmael? And where is he? Can Pangur B n find him in time?


Beautifully written, wilder and less safe than Lewis's Narnia, this beloved allegory is newly republished. Whether you're discovering it for the first time or rediscovering that book you loved as a child, Pangur B n delivers breathless fantasy and spiritual depth for young readers and adults.


The first in a series of Celtic fantasies for middle grade readers, this is a classic tale of good and evil by acclaimed author Fay Sampson, three-time nominee for The Guardian Children's Fiction Prize.

Sampson, Fay: - Fay Sampson now lives in Devon, after many years abroad. A keen genealogist, she has traced some of her ancestors to before the Norman Conquest, and is constantly adding to her tree. She is the author of both children's and adult books, many of which are based on history or myths and legends.
