From bestselling author and winner of the Blue Peter Best Story Book Award, Uki and the Swamp Spirit is the fifth title set in the world of Podkin One-Ear.

''A spellbinding story full of friendship, excitement and magic.'' Guardian

Uki had the sensation of a sickly green light, spreading out through the networks of water. Of tendrils connecting all the creatures of the marsh in a web . . . Linking itself so it could poison it all and destroy it.

Uki and his friends have two more spirits to find and capture. After defeating Valkus, they make for Clarice, who is spreading disease through the swamps. Can Uki and his friends outwit him - all whilst they themselves are being chased by the Endwatch and Jori''s clan of assassins?

''Storytelling perfection.'' Sophie Anderson

''One of my sons very favourite authors.'' Romesh Ranganathan

''Superb.'' Max Porter

''It''s jolly good fun ... expect sequels to breed like... well, rabbits.'' SFX

Kids love Podkin:
'One of the best books I have ever read.' Cally, age 10, Lovereading4kids
'Like 'The Lord of the Rings' and 'Watership Down' mixed together.' Sam, age 11, Lovereading4kids
'An adventure that keeps you wanting to read on and on into the night.' Alex, age 10, Lovereading4kids

Über den Autor
Kieran Larwood was born in Kenya. He moved to the UK when he was two and lived in various places before settling on the Isle of Wight, where he can still be found: exploring rockpools, climbing trees and writing or drawing! He has done a wide range of jobs, including being an archery instructor and working the night shift in a cake factory (which was nowhere near as much fun as it sounds). He taught in a primary school for fifteen years before becoming a full-time author (and sometimes illustrator) of a series of novels that link across the Five Realms of Lanica. Kieran has won the Blue Peter Best Story and the Prix Sorcières. He is inspired by a life-long love of fantasy stories, which all began when - as a young boy - he picked up a copy of The Hobbit and saw the map inside. It just goes to show - you never know where opening a book will lead . . .
