The imaginary world they created has been waiting for them to come back.

Twins Arthur and Rose created the magical world of Roar when they were very young, and until recently, they'd all but forgotten it exists. But when the villain who still haunts their nightmares kidnaps their grandfather, Roar becomes part of their lives again.

When the twins go back to Roar for their first visit after rescuing Granddad, they soon discover there's no time to explore--Crowky, the villain, is poised to destroy their world, using a weapon that brings their deepest fears to life. Arthur and Rose must use all their courage and travel to the End of Roar to confront Crowky and save the world they built.

This enchanting, action-packed novel is the sequel to The Land of Roar, a bestseller in the UK, and is perfect for readers who've always dreamed of exploring Narnia and Neverland.

Jenny McLachlan

The magical new book in the bestselling middle-grade fantasy adventure series, The Land of Roar.



A series that celebrates the power of imagination and finding the greatest adventures in the most ordinary of places - perfect for children aged 8, 9, 10 and upwards, and fans of Narnia, Jumanji and How to Train Your Dragon.

Featuring breathtaking illustrations throughout by Ben Mantle and stunning fold-out cover artwork.



Twins Arthur and Rose can't wait to go back to Roar, the fantasy world they get to through their grandad's attic. Roar is a land of dragons, mermaids, unicorns, ninja wizards and where anything they can imagine can be real.



But when they return there's no time for exploring, because a message arrives from their scarecrow enemy, Crowky.



WHAT'S IN THE BOX?



The Box would always contain the things that scared the twins most - and if Crowky gets hold of it, Roar could be in more danger than ever.



Soon they find themselves on another thrilling adventure, accompanied by old friends and new faces and seeing parts of Roar they'd almost forgotten. But will they get to the box before Crowky does? And if it opens, what will they see?
