The First 11+ Vocabulary Novel – A fun fantasy adventure story for girls and boys with a built-in dictionary and KNOWLEDGE NUGGETS on every page.
Claire, an ordinary schoolgirl, learns she’s descended from twelfth-century knights. The catch? They’re alive, and they need her help.

Claire and Ben are ordinary schoolchildren, their lives predictable until the day everything changes – forever. Claire finds a mysterious letter beckoning her to a peculiar destination – alone. Her sister is in danger. She must take Jack the dog and not tell anyone, even Ben.
Little does Claire know she’s stepping into a world of ancient legends, guided by twelfth-century knights who ordinarily should be long dead. Knights who wear trainers, pilot planes, perform martial arts and manipulate time, yet they need Claire’s help.
Crawling through tunnels, scaling treacherous mountains, combating evil and betrayal, Claire must face her deepest fears and discover her remarkable hidden talents. In this new world of spies, lies, premonitions and magic, who can Claire trust?
As the quest to protect a powerfully dangerous artefact unfolds, Claire learns how much is at stake. If she fails, the devastating consequences are too unbearable to consider…
