Beskrivelse
"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 Bán, 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 Bán 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 Bán 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.
