Youngest Faircrest Series

Buckle up, we’re heading back to Bogsmarsh—to the morning of Youngest’s first sorcery lesson. The very same day he learned someone was trying to kill him.

Youngest Faircrest just can’t catch a break. He thought defeating Bogsmarsh’s power-hungry villains would be the end of his troubles, but boy was he wrong. When he receives a chilling warning that someone is out to get him, Youngest, his best friend Agnes, and his piglet sidekick Satchel turn detective to unmask the truth. With the Welcoming Feast bringing all the Deciders from across Rivell to town, Bogsmarsh is crawling with people who have means and opportunity. Danger could be lurking anywhere, and nobody can be trusted …

The second book in this rip-roaringly funny series is an edge-of-your-seat whodunnit packed with magic, mischief, and mystery. The stakes are high, and our hero is a little nervous about it all. But if we’ve learned anything, it’s that you should never underestimate Youngest Faircrest.

‘Such a warm, funny and wildly imaginative adventure. I loved the magic and mischief running through these pages, as well as the brilliant illustrations.’ – A. F. Steadman, bestselling author of the Skandar series

An unapologetically unremarkable hero, a surprisingly brave piglet, and an epic fantasy adventure perfect for fans of How to Train Your Dragon.

It’s the day of the Deciding in the swampy town of Bogsmarsh—the day every twelve-year-old learns who they are going to be forever. Sitting in the Decider’s study, Youngest Faircrest is declared remarkable at only one thing: just how unremarkable he is.

Determined to prove he is so much more than what has been Decided, Youngest does the only sensible thing: he heads to where no one else dares, to reclaim Bogsmarsh’s stolen magic (if it even exists) – from a flying, stinging, yellow-eyed ancient sorcerer. Knowing Youngest’s luck, she probably does exist!

Together with his best friend Agnes and piglet sidekick Satchel, Youngest is about to face monsters, mysteries, and mayhem… Could it be that Youngest is more remarkable than he’s been made to feel, and capable of more than he ever dreamed?

Three things you’ll find in this book:
A laugh-out-loud fantasy world filled with monsters, magic, and mayhem.A fiercely loyal best friend and a trusty piglet with a surprise or two up his (non-existent) sleeves.A spellbinding story of courage, friendship, and self-discovery.
This debut novel by award-winning comedy writer Ollie George Clark is a perfect blend of humor, adventure, and heart.
