Fans of Serafina and the Black Cloak and The Night Gardener will devour MarcyKate Connolly's Shadow Weaver, the first in a dark middle-grade fantasy duology that's filled with shadows, danger, magic, and has the feel of a new classic.
Fantasy and magic for young readers: Emmeline's gift of controlling shadows has isolated her from the rest of the world. But she's content to live tucked away in her mansion home with her only friend and companion, her own shadow, Dar. Disaster strikes when a noble and his family visit and offer to cure Emmeline of magic. Dar promises to change the noble's mind if Emmeline will help her become flesh as she once was. Emmeline agrees, and the next morning, the man is found in a coma. Frightened, Emmeline and Dar flee. With the noble's guards on her trail, Emmeline's only hope of clearing her name is to escape capture and perform the ritual that will set Dar free. But Emmeline's not entirely sure she can trust Dar anymore, and it's hard to keep secrets from someone tethered to your feet.
MarcyKate Connolly, also author of Ravenous and Monstrous, is a New York Times bestselling children's book author who lives in New England with her family and posse of pugs. Like the main character in her Shadow Weaver duology, she once had an imaginary friend who did very naughty things like eating directly from the sugar bowl and playing hide-and-seek with her parents―without telling them―whenever they went to department stores.
