Costa-award winning master of fantasy Frances Hardinge talks about her magical, mysterious and spell-binding new book, Unraveller.
Unraveller is a tale of curses, old pacts, rage, recovery, mysterious marsh-woods, magical spiders, moonlit markets – and so much more. As with every one of Hardinge’s books, it will transport you to another world.
Hardinge’s first children’s novel, Fly By Night, was published to huge critical acclaim and won the Branford Boase Award. She has since written many highly acclaimed children’s novels including, Fly By Night’s sequel, Twilight Robbery, as well as the Carnegie shortlisted Cuckoo Song and the Costa Book of the Year winner, The Lie Tree. Here she talks to Elizabeth Garner, a teacher of creative writing and author of two novels underpinned by myth and folklore, Nightdancing and The Ingenious Edgar Jones, and a recently-published collection of rewritten folktales Lost & Found.
