Legendarium

PLAY THE GAME. BRAVE THE LEGEND. Arthur, Ren and Cecily are stuck in Legendarium in the year 2493, where the secretive villain Deadlock has discovered dangerous time-travel technology. To save the universe, the friends must enter the deadly Irontide Tournament, where legends are real and one wrong move could cost them their lives...

Wonderscape, the first book in this thrilling gaming duology, was chosen as a Waterstones Children's Book of the Month – the second time for bestselling author Jennifer Bell, following her debut The Uncommoners. The edge-of-your seat action takes place within an in-reality adventure game, playing perfectly into the growing popularity of gaming stories, and ideal for reluctant readers. Think Ready Player One meets The Hunger Games. Imaginatively explores famous legends from across the globe, including the Ethiopian legend of Kaldi, the Pied Piper of Hamelin, and the lost Incan city of Paititi, not to mention talking Yetis, ferocious Vikings and bands of dangerous outlaws.

Jennifer Bell has to be one of the most exciting writers of Middle Grade Science-Fiction. Sharp, fast-paced and full of heart, this sequel delivers on the promise made in a brilliant beginning in Wonderscape. Arthur, Ren and Cecily are adventuring once more in this warm and witty pageturner of a sequel. I love it!" Elle McNicoll
Legendarium does not disappoint. In fact it grabs you from page one. With a furious pace and mind-boggling concepts, it’s the very definition of a BLOCKBUSTER. Phil Earle
