This the first book of three. It introduces Anja, a vulnerable, wilful girl, and the Land; a sentient world determined to control its own destiny. Anja and her younger brother are drawn into the Land to find her youngest brother. The Land has a purpose; to empower her and test her ability to survive. \u003cp\u003eAnja, her brothers Alfie and Toby, and Rob Hemmersley; a young policeman, disappear from a small English village one midsummer night. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy does the Land; a sentient, vast and almost unpopulated world want Anja? Why do its servants; the old Gods of our world, take such interest in this child? One beguiles her, one helps her, one hunts her. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat of Rob Hemmersley? Alone, driven insane after entering the Land. Turned into a vicious creature obsessed with taking retribution on the children who he blames for his misfortune? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Land watches dispassionately. The children will either survive or not. If they do they will never be the same, especially Anja; manipulated, terrified, enhanced with power she cannot control. If she survives she could become its most powerful servant. To what end: A child considering her humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40965595693153,"sku":"9781805140702","price":9.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_28134701.jpg?v=1722340416","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781805140702-land","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
