'You belong to the blade now. You'll belong to it until the day you die . . .'

Tom, the Spook's Apprentice, has travelled to Ireland, where he must tackle a group of evil mages.

And dare he accept the help of Grimalkin, the terrifying witch assassin?

Reviews

  • Delaney's mastery of suspense will grip even reluctant readers with his dramatic, beautifully paced prose... Unlike the vampires and so forth, both these novels carry a genuine graveyard chill. Huge fun, and deliciously shivery.
