The Spyglass and the Cherry Tree — Matt Beighton

One look couldn't hurt... One look could change her life...

Back home on Earth, talking to people at school was hard enough for Skye Thistle. One look through a mysterious spyglass changed all that. Catapulted to a strange world and into a war she doesn't understand, Skye suddenly has a whole new set of problems.

A violent darkness is growing in the south and the Goblins are at war. Can Skye trust them, or is there a traitor threatening to undermine everything she's working to achieve.

Desperate to return home, Skye's only hope is an ancient prophecy that she doesn't believe it. The problem is, if it isn't true, she'll be trapped forever. 

When a powerful and dark magic threatens to destroy everything, a teenage girl from Earth may be the only hope to save an entire world.

Fantastic world-building teams up with magical fantasy in the first installment of the Shadowland Chronicles.

"The Spyglass and the Cherry Tree is a brilliant fantasy adventure with a journey about confronting fears and trials to become a hero, with a variety of eccentric characters, an evil queen, and the quest for a magical stone." â€" ReadersFavourite.com
