Glorious new rejacket of a Diana Wynne Jones favourite, featuring Chrestomanci - now a book with extra bits! The Dukedom of Caprona is a place where music is enchantment and spells are as slippery as spaghetti. The magical business is run by two families - the Montanas and the Petrocchis - and they are deadly rivals. So when all the spells start going wrong, they naturally blame each other. Chrestomanci suspects an evil enchanter; others say it is a White Devil. Or maybe a different kind of magic is needed to save Caprona. Part of Diana Wynne Jones' wider campaign for new publishing throughout 2025. We will roll out a gorgeous digital campaign across HCCB reaching 150k followers, and special DWJ packages will land with influencers, reaching 250k TikTokkers, to continue building on viral moments of Howl's Moving Castle. Competition: Harry Potter, Philip Pullman, Terry Pratchett.
