“Reading one of Sophie Masson's books is like standing on top of a lonely mountain at midnight, under a star-filled sky … Her work has that same sense of clarity, magic and mystery.”
Garth Nix
“Watching a story unfold when you know the story but don't know how the storyteller is going to make it work this time is a particular delight.”
Phillip Pullman, award winning author of His Dark Materials series
An enchanting retelling of the fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty.
Lady Aurora, daughter of the Count and Countess of Joli-Bois, and Clementine, the local woodcutter's child, have been firm friends for all of their sixteen years. Until, that is, the day they stumble upon a castle they never knew existed. What is the secret behind the legend of the sleeping castle of Joli-Bois? A century later, Lord Arthur, a young amateur scientist, is determined to find out. But he discovers that science is no match for a magic that has been lying untouched for over one hundred years...
"It is well written and the detail of court life and ways is enthralling. This book will appeal to anyone who has loved the fairy tale, for all the trappings are present and correct. A fabulous novel which has been given the cover it deserves."
Adèle Geras (Author)
