This is the adventure of two Storytellers - Orlando de la Tour and his wayward apprentice, Rosa, the Red Bird. When Rosa breaks the cardinal rule: "never believe your stories are real", she becomes lost in her own tale and it is then Orlando's task to find her, with the aid of members of the mysterious Storytellers' Guild. From a deceptively peaceful beginning, The Red Bird gradually gathers momentum as the characters become more and more entangled in the web which Rosa unconsciously weaves.
The Red Bird will appeal to readers of books such as J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials.
