About the Book

Rossamund has always dreamed of a career in the Navy, fighting tentacled monsters and rescuing damsels from hook-handed pirates. But fate has chosen him for a different path. He is being sent to train as a Lamplighter – to bring light to the inland roads of the Half-Continent, to shine the way for travellers through lands peopled by outcasts, monsters and worse. But for Rossamund to begin his education, he must first undertake a journey of his own – to the great city of High Vesting. Such a road is not for the faint of heart. Only monster-hunters, leers and the most desperate of brigands dare travel the inland ways unguarded. And all Rossamund carries with him is a battered almanac and a pocketful of cheap potions. It is unlikely to be enough.

About the Author :
David (D. M.) Cornish is a fantasy author and illustrator from Adelaide, South Australia. David studied illustration at the University of South Australia, where in 1993 he began to compile a series of notebooks. Over the next ten years he filled twenty-three journals with his pictures, definitions, ideas and histories of his world, the Half-Continent. He is currently working on the third instalment of the Monster Blood Tattoo Trilogy. Humphrey Bower is a gifted and versatile actor. Since obtaining a BA (Hons) in English Language and Literature at Oxford University, he has worked extensively in theatre, television and audiobook narration. Humphrey won the prestigious Audie Award (US) for his performance of The Family Frying Pan by Bryce Courtenay, and was shortlisted for an Audie Award for his performances of Gould's Book of Fish by Richard Flanagan and Brother Fish by Bryce Courtenay. Humphrey's sensitive and intelligent readings are highly regarded and he is well-known for his capacity to perform a variety of accents.

Review :
'The book is full of mystery and action, taking you on an adventure of discovery from start to finish.' 'For the most part, I’d say that any kid who could handle the Harry Potter books, the The Amulet of Samarkand series, or any of the The Lord of the Rings would definitely enjoy this series and get into it.' 'Another outstanding book in an equally outstanding series, leaving you shocked by its outcome, and longing to read the next book.' (on Lamplighter)
