Cover design by Fernando Juarez, inside illustrations by David Wyatt (both artists are amazing).

The fifth title in a a high-quality animal fantasy series handsomely published in hardback by Faber. Kirkus described the first book, Podkin One-Ear (a Bluie Peter Book of the Year),  as “an original fantasy with warrior rabbits, fierce foes, sibling loyalty, riveting adventure, and genuine storytelling.”

Uki and the Swamp Spirit is set in the world of Podkin One-Ear. Uki had the sensation of a sickly green light, spreading out through the networks of water. Of tendrils connecting all the creatures of the marsh in a web . . . Linking itself so it could poison it all and destroy it. Uki and his friends have two more spirits to find and capture. After defeating Valkus, they make for Charice, who is spreading disease through the swamps. Can Uki and his friends outwit him – all whilst they themselves are being chased by the Endwatch and Jori’s clan of assassins?

Book 6 in this highly collectible series is publishing in October 2021.
