About the Book:

As the Ninth Dreamer, Jayben is the only one who can defeat Null, the evil villain who has been making everyone in the Elf World forget. With the crystals that give Jayben his power quickly fading, he needs to uncover the missing words from the Book of Dreamers to finally free everyone from Null's curse. When Jayben finds an electrifying blue stone, he quickly learns that it can transport him anywhere in the blink of an eye - but it can be dangerous unless used properly. Hearing of a magical elixir that can restore his crystals to full strength, Jayben sets out on a quest with his friends to find it and the missing words.But Null's ally is racing to get to the elixir first and the words are scattered across the five realms of the Elf World … something - or someone - is preventing Jayben from succeeding. Jayben needs to work out who he can trust - and fast - as he prepares to battle Null in a final showdown.


Praise for Jayben:

'Jayben is my kind of hero, and he's one to be celebrated. This amazing exploration of fantasy through the lens of epilepsy shows all readers that one quality we all need to save the world: valour!' - Elle McNicoll, author of A Kind of Spark

'I loved this book - a triumphant and richly imagined fantasy as well as a compelling insight into life with seizures and memory loss. I can't wait to see where this story goes!' - Lee Newbery, author of The Last Firefox
