A hero fights against the tide, Companions battle by his side. Danger, magic, secrets, lies, A tyrant King who never dies, A Prophecy that must be cheated, Evil that must be defeated, The menace of the fabled El... This is the tale of Landovel.

From the legendary Emily Rodda comes an epic adventure unlike any you've read before.

Derry knows no other life than that of a captive on Cram's Rock, shunned by the other young prisoners for being Cram's poison taster. Until the day everything changes, when a traveller arrives, on the run from the sinister El executioners. She leaves Derry with a magical notebook full of secrets, secrets that might hold the key to Derry's destiny - and his past.

In an unprecedented publishing event, Landovel's three parts are available together - and only together - in one unique, irresistible package, ready for you to binge from start to finish. Presented in a stunning embellished giftbox containing all three books with colourful sprayed edges, Landovel is a special keepsake, the ultimate fantasy quest, and the perfect way to ignite young readers' passion by giving them the entire story to devour at once.

'If there were ever a new Australian fantasy classic, Landovel is it... the incomparable Emily Rodda at her very best.' - Magpies

'Some authors only need a couple of pages to convince you that their newest book will be great. Emily Rodda can do it with a map. From the moment I opened the first book in Emily Rodda's new fantasy epic, Landovel, I knew it was going to be just as inventive, mysterious and magical as her best stories.' - Readings
