Silver City Paperback / softback

From the desolate reaches of space, the Roar has smelled the children of Earth and her hunger knows no bounds.

Children from all over the world are rushing to Coldharbour.

Here, Milo, a silver boy the size of cities, has emerged as the first great defender against the Roar.

But where will the second generation come from?Six special children hold the key, but their strength is dwindling.

Thomas is shocked by his discovery of the eerie Unearthers.

The twins are drawn irresistibly to the ocean, compelled to dive deep.

Walter, the giant, must face a terrifying trial of strength, while Helen, searching for the secret of the strange little girl, Jenny, enters the mind of the Roar itself.

The lines for battle are drawn. With the appearance of Cliff McNish's debut fantasy novel The Doomspell, The Bookseller immediately hailed him as 'a great new voice in writing for children.' His ghost story Breathe was voted in May 2013 by The Schools Network of British Librarians as one of the top adult and children's novels of all time.
