Where the World Ends

Winner of the CILIP Carnegie Medal 2018. Every summer Quill and his friends are put ashore on a remote sea stac to hunt birds. But this summer, no one arrives to take them home. Surely nothing but the end of the world can explain why they’ve been abandoned – cold, starving and clinging to life, in the grip of a murderous ocean. How will they survive? “Brilliant, beautiful… as unpredictable as the sea itself.” Philip Reeve, author of Mortal Engines “Harshly beautiful, and stark with near-despair, this is an unsettling, deeply original historical novel.” The Guardian
