Summary
Bloomsbury presents The Lost Girl King by Catherine Doyle, read by Patrick Moy.
‘The Lost Girl King echoes Lord of the Rings and Narnia, whilst being original and fresh. It’s sure to become a classic of its own’ – Aisha Bushby, author of A Pocketful of Stars
‘A glorious gulp of a summer adventure’ – Piers Torday, author of The Lost Wild
‘Nobody writes peril, wit and wonder as well as Catherine Doyle … a modern Diana Wynne Jones’ – Dave Rudden, author of Irish Children’s Book of the Year, Knights of the Borrowed Dark
**********
From the author of the bestselling Storm Keeper trilogy comes a new, spellbinding adventure…
Amy and Liam Bell have been packed off to stay at Gran's house in the wilds of Connemara for the summer. Out for a walk on the first morning of their holiday, they trace the flight of a hawk to a nearby waterfall – only to watch the bird disappear through it. Intrigued, the children follow and soon realise they've discovered the entrance to Tír na nÓg, the legendary land of eternal youth.
But they’ve been tricked. Almost immediately Liam is captured by a troop of headless horsemen who take him to Tarlock, the ruling sorcerer of Tír na nÓg, who is seeking the bones of a human child for a sinister new spell.
Packed with edge-of-your seat adventure, incredible imagination, humour and warmth, The Lost Girl King is the rare kind of story that has you listening long past lights out.

Loved it
I have listened to all the books in the Stormkeeper series so I was delighted when I realised this was the new book from Catherine Doyle and that Patrick Moy was narrating again.
These novels are all such a wonderful escape from real life into Irish folklore and all the way through I couldn’t wait to find out what would happen next. I loved that in this book it’s Amy who leads the charge against the forces of darkness, much to the surprise of all the magical beings of Tír na nÓg.
Once again, there is a lot of humour to enjoy, which is complimented by Patrick Moy’s narration. I should also add that I’m 45 years old so this is definitely not just a book for children, although I expect children would be enchanted by it.
