Darwen Arkwright and the Insidious Bleck

Return to the wondrous world beyond the mirror in Darwen’s second adventure

Darwen Arkwright’s life changed forever when he first set foot in Silbrica, the alluring and magical world beyond the mirror. Now, he and his friends Rich and Alexandra - the Peregrine Pact - must journey to Costa Rica to save a boy who’s been stolen by the Insidious Bleck, a giant tentacled creature that leaves destruction in its wake. But what at lrst seemed to be a single kidnapping turns out to be an elaborate conspiracy that threatens the very future of our world. And this time, old allies can’t be trusted and the danger runs deeper than Darwen could have ever imagined...

Kirkus Reviews called the first Darwen book "Brilliant!" and we think you’ll agree. It’s a completely modern take on the kind of fantasy that has delighted middle grade readers for generations.
