The first book of a major fantasy series from
New York Times bestselling authors Garth Nix and Sean Williams, in which twins
find that they must act as wards against a threatening evil.
'Come
to us, Troubletwisters, join us ... welcome, most welcome!'
When their home
mysteriously explodes around their ears, twins Jack and Jaide are sent to stay
with a grandmother they have never met, in a town they have never heard of. Portland
might seem boring and quiet, but it soon becomes apparent that Grandma X is more
than a little eccentric, and there are very strange happenings in the town. Talking
cats, swarms of cockroaches, a miniature tornado trashing their room - the twins
are about to find out what it means to be a troubletwister!
