Sobre este título

The award-winning, bestselling Frances Hardinge and Emily Gravett unite for the first time to conjure up a thrilling fairy tale of ghosts and magic.

On the island of Merlank, the Dead must not be allowed to linger. The very sight of their ghosts can kill you. When young Milo is thrust into the role of Ferryman following his father’s sudden death, he is the one who must carry away the Dead.

Pursued by a vengeful lord and two malignant magicians, Milo must navigate strange and perilous seas where untold threats whisper in the mist. Does he have the courage and imagination to complete his urgent mission?

From the Costa Book Award-winning Frances Hardinge, author of The Lie Tree and Unraveller, this riveting coming-of-age tale will sweep you away on an unforgettable journey.

Resumo da Crítica

A fabulously eerie tale that boldly confronts mortality.. the stunning illustrations by Emily Gravett cleverly capture the narrative's haunting mood.. the book is deceptively multi-layered
With its silver-sprinkled jacket, this elegiac story, part way between picture book and novella, is perfect for autumn.. with each word carefully and often surprisingly chosen, this gothic fable weaves a frisson-filled spell.
Heightened by Gravett’s blue-white expanses and stark black bricks and timbers, Hardinge’s spare coming-of-age parable is laced with her trademark wisdom and subtlety.. this is ideal for 11+ readers who enjoy highly illustrated storytelling.
Island of Whispers is a melancholy, mist-shrouded triumph
Frances Hardinge.. is a terrific YA author
Hardinge is an extraordinary writer for teenagers.. atmospheric illustrations add to the ghostly drama
An ideal gift book for both reluctant teen readers and enthusiastic readers with a penchant for the macabre.
A dazzling coming-of-age story by the Costa-winning author.
Young readers will be in thrall to this unforgettable and ultimately heartwarming adventure.
Full of powerful images – in text and illustration – it should be read and reread
Island of Whispers is a page turner until the end.
