For 400 years magic was fading. Two extraordinary twins have changed everything. Now magic is back, but it’s out of control. . . Discover the extraordinary world of Artezans, by acclaimed middle-grade author, L.D. Lapinski.
Praise for the Artezans series:
‘A stupendous, witty, humane fantasy. . . an inventive, compelling world and characters I would die for. LD Lapinski is a genius!’ Louie Stowell, author of ‘Loki: A Bad God’s Guide’ series
Twins Elodie and Edward Crane are Artezans, inheritors of strange and powerful magic. After surviving an epic battle with The Sandman, the twins are now shipwrecked on a mysterious island with storms raging around them. The islanders are welcoming, but troubled new friend, Laurie, knows more than they are willing to tell. And Elodie is haunted by ominous whispers that are growing ever louder.
As magic spirals into chaos, it’s time for Ed and Elodie to face their destiny as they seek the lost Artezan Masters . . .
L.D. Lapinski lives just outside Sherwood Forest with their family, a lot of books, and a cat called Hector. They are the author of The Strangeworlds Travel Agency trilogy, and the standalone novel Jamie.
When they aren’t writing, L.D. can be found cosplaying, drinking a lot of cherry cola, and taking care of a forest of succulent plants. L.D. first wrote a book aged seven; it was made of lined paper and Sellotape, and it was about a frog who owned an aeroplane. When L.D. grows up, they want to be a free-range guinea pig farmer.
