Ottilie Colter and the Withering World

SLEEPER COMES FOR NONE Ottilie and her friends are members of the Narroway Hunt, a secret organisation that trains children to kill bloodthirsty monsters called dredretches. Now, the huntsmen are under attack - by something far worse than dredretches. A witch is cursing them one by one, making them unwilling participants in a vengeful scheme. But what, exactly, is she planning - and will Ottilie have to join her to find out? The thrilling conclusion to a much-loved trilogy about friendship, changing loyalties and never, ever giving up. There are sandstorms. There are scorpions. There are new friends and foes. And every soul in every world hangs in the balance. From the desolate plains of Arakaan to the shifting halls and devious booby traps of the Manor, Jane's Cradle quest is about to explode. Jane Doe is in more danger than ever before. Her father is still imprisoned. The Manor - the hallowed world between worlds - is still dying. The villainous Roth is still searching for the mythical, all-powerful Cradle Sea. Worst of all, Jane has learned that she is the key to stopping him and saving the Otherworlds. Problem is, she's stranded in the dying land of Arakaan - Roth's home - and its people have some surprising secrets of their own. With a little help from her pyromaniac pal, Violet, and her doubtful ally, Hickory, Jane must find the courage to accept her destiny and face her darkest fears, even if it means losing everything she holds dear.
