Step into a world where myth and magic are real in IMPOSSIBLE CREATURES, the thrilling first book in the bestselling fantasy series by award-winning author Katherine Rundell.
When Christopher discovers a hidden passage - a Way-Between - linking our world to the mysterious Archipelago, his life changes forever. The Archipelago is a chain of magical islands where legendary creatures from ancient stories still live: griffins, sphinxes, dragons and many more.
There Christopher meets Mal, a brave girl from the islands who possesses a remarkable flying coat and is caring for a baby griffin. But Mal is also being hunted by a dangerous killer. Together they set out on a desperate quest to uncover why the magical creatures of the Archipelago are suddenly dying. Their journey takes them across breathtaking islands filled with wonder and danger, where mythical beings guard secrets and ancient powers are stirring.
If they fail, the magic of the islands - and perhaps the safety of the human world - could be lost forever.
