Series: Prometheus High

A hugely inventive, action-packed, fun and quirky - and occasionally dark - adventure for fans of Skulduggery Pleasant, Nevermoor or Frankenstein.

A rusting ocean liner. Thirty students learning to resurrect the dead. A murderous monster on the loose . . . Just a typical day at PROMETHEUS HIGH.

Athena Strange's first semester at Prometheus High starts with a bang. But when her lessons in reanimation, robotics and skulkers move too slowly and she has trouble making friends, Athena decides to take matters into her own hands.

On a ship where science and magic collide, and the monster under your bed is probably very real . . . will Athena be able to hold her head above water?

'This quirky novel is a lot of fun ... a story about struggling to fit in, having patience and the importance of teamwork.' Books and Publishing

'In the first few pages of this story the reader will realise it's fun, it's quirky and they can't put it down.' Schooldays Magazine

Stuart Wilson lives in Melbourne, Australia, with his wife and son. An omnivore when it comes to consuming stories, he reads too many books, watches too many films and plays too many videogames. Like Athena, he also chews on his lip when he's nervous. He hasn't, however, taken to his rooftop with alligator clips and a lightning rod in the middle of a thunderstorm to resurrect the neighbour's dead cat. Mainly because he rents, and the landlord wouldn't approve. Prometheus High is his first novel.
