Faolan and Sally have no memory of their lives before they arrived at the Land ten years ago. In this self-sufficient community, good fortune comes from mysterious beings known as the shapes, and no one is to venture into the Forest; a dangerous place full of fearsome wolves.





When a strange gentleman named Reynard emerges from the Forest, he quickly befriends Faolan and Sally. But the community are both suspicious and enthralled by his storytelling.





In the wake of a terrible attack, the shapes seem to abandon their people. Faolan flees into the Forest seeking the wolves that have always fascinated him, and Reynard and Sally are banished.





Their pursuit of Faolan leads them to uncover many mysteries. As they are drawn further in, the community they once knew begins to fracture.





There is no keeping the Forest out any longer, and nothing will ever be the same again.

Recenzijos

"The Wolfstongue Saga is in a league of its own  a giant oak towering over a claustrophobic forest   and The Forest Yet to Come weaves together the roots set down in its sister books both beautifully and masterfully. Cunningly clever, otherworldly and utterly breathtaking, its an incomparable force of nature  I love it." * Eve McDonnell, author of The Last Boy * "The Forest Yet to Come is magical in every sense of the word. This modern fable fizzes with excitement and invention. An unputdownable story that works on many levels. Like the very best of childrens fantasy, Sam Thompson weaves important lessons into a thoroughly engaging tale that has much to tell us about the power of story itself.'  * Celia Rees * "Wonderful storytelling and wow-factor illustrations mean I can absolutely recommend this book! Now, to read the others in the series!" * Derek Keilty, author of the Ivy Newt series * Sam draws you into the forest, and you will not want to leave until the story ends... A brilliant blend of mystery, trickery and adventure.  * Amy Sparkes, author of The House At The Edge Of Magic series * 'I found it fascinating that I could pick up the last book of a trilogy and be transported so effortlessly into another world. Sam Thompson's The Forest Yet to Come is a skilfully written, utterly enchanting story, brought to life by Anna Tromop's beautiful illustrations. Escapism at its finest.'  * Jenny Ireland, author of The First Move and The Boy Next Door * "Thought-provoking."





  * Kirkus Reviews * "Anna Tromop's illustrations are beautiful and Thompson's previous novels have been hailed as modern classics." * Meath Chronicle * "Atmospheric world-building and an eerie spirituality make this novel reminiscent of Alan Garner." * The Jewish Chronicle *

Sam Thompson is the author of three novels for children, Wolfstongue, The Fox's Tower and The Forest Yet To Come, and several books for grown-ups. He lives in Belfast with his wife, three children, and a dog and cat who have finally admitted they are best friends.
