Crow Moon (Greenworld Trilogy Book 1)

Description

“Clever, gripping, but above all a terrifying cautionary tale for our times.” – Louise O’Neill, bestselling author of Only Ever Yours and Asking For It

Danny Prentice is 16 and just about to leave school, which is fine by him—school isn’t really his thing. He’d rather spend his time partying and chatting up girls.

Danny lives in the Greenworld: an eco-pagan closed community comprising Devon and Cornwall in the south west of England, where witches rule and those who don’t like it can join the lawless gangs that roam the unpopulated land between each self-sufficient village. Or, they can defect to the Redworld, dirty, crime-riddled and corrupt, where private security protects the super-rich and victimizes the poor, and the battle for the last scraps of fuel rages on.

But like it or not, Danny can’t escape magic: his mother is the head witch of his village. But when he accidently puts her in danger, he starts a chain of events that see him realize his own magical destiny outside Greenworld.

Together with the beautiful young sorceress Saba, her twin Melz and their gang, he begins to think that being a witch might not be that bad after all—but the leader of the gangs, Roach, has other plans for Danny’s power. Will Danny be able to protect Saba and the magical secret she’s guarding? Or will Roach show Danny a future that is too powerful to resist?
