A Skinful of Shadows |
Twelve-year old Makepeace living in a world of Civil War when the spirits of the dead can inhabit the living, finds herself host to a truly wild spirit - Bear. No one can do imaginative scenarios better than Frances Hardinge and here is one of her most imaginative. Yet against this background where history and fantasy meet is a powerful story about a girl and a boy fighting to grow up and survive. Fantastic.
