There is magic deep within Arranmore Island, and Fionn Boyle is beginning to discover how it has woven its way through generations of his family's history. But Arranmore is in trouble; evil sorceress Morrigan's soul stalkers have returned, giving rise to widespread fear and suspicion. Fionn wants to help, but the Storm Keeper magic passed down from his grandfather seems to have deserted him. Fionn sets out to summon the merrows, a vast army of sea creatures who may be his only chance. But how can he find them without the faintest idea of where to look? The battle to save Arranmore has begun. This gorgeously written, magical tale of family, bravery, and self-discovery is perfect for fans of Orphan Island and A Snicker of Magic.

Sparkles with wit and wisdom ... The Lost Tide Warriors is an unputdownable adventure
A masterfully written, truly legendary adventure. The Lost Tide Warriors feels like a journey across the darkest, wildest and most beautiful seas
A wonderfully crafted adventure - tense, thrilling, poignant and really rather beautiful
Exceptional ... It kept me on the edge of my seat, had me laughing out loud and made me weep. Beautifully written, emotionally compelling and tremendously exciting, it cements Catherine Doyle as one of the strongest children's authors writing today
The Lost Tide Warriors takes everything that made The Storm-Keeper's Island so special and runs with it - more action, higher stakes, an expanding mythology at once supremely high-concept and so real it feels like it lives just down the road. Doyle is a born storyteller ... A book you won't be able to put down
Doyle has created something rare, rich and beautiful in the Storm Keeper series; the beautiful writing is so compelling and I already can't wait for the next book
Tender and powerful. This is a gripping adventure ... I really needed this book - a generous message that courage and love are often all the magic we need
Magical in every way
Acutely observed sibling dynamics, a house full of magical candles, and a vivid sense of history interwoven with Irish legend make for a standout novel
The book of the season (if not the year) has to be this beautifully written fantasy adventure. The perfect summer holiday escape, don't miss it!
So magical and wild that it's like being swept away by the sea
A gripping adventure, brimming with magic and mythological references, which will be adored by fans of the first book.
Gripping fantasy adventure which cleverly reignites Irish mythology for modern readers.
The Lost Tide Warriors combines the modern world with Irish myths and sweeps you back to Arranmore with a story that brims with magic, adventure, family and friendship.
Rip-roaring adventure with an endearingly resourceful hero.
