A gorgeous fantasy in the spirit of Pans Labyrinth and John Connollys The Book of Lost Things.Set in a world similar to our own, during a war that parallels World War II, A Green and Ancient Light is the stunning story of a boy who is sent to stay with his grandmother for the summer in a serene fishing village. Their tranquility is shattered by the crash of a bullet-riddled enemy plane, the arrival of grandmothers friend Mr. Girandole-a man who knows the true story of Cinderellas slipper-and the discovery of a riddle in the sacred grove of ruins behind grandmothers house. In a sumptuous idyllic setting and overshadowed by the threat of war, four unlikely allies learn the values of courage and sacrifice.
