StockID: 125888 SKU: 0824ON598
Endless night befalls a sleepy seaside town- leaving it to young Madeline Tock to save her community from a threat known only as the Night Mother . . . The moon is stuck like a broken clock in the midnight sky- the sun a distant memory. No one in this quiet seaside town can remember how long this unnatural darkness has lasted. No one- that is- except for the curious girl who lives in the graveyard- caring for the dead: twelve-year-old Madeline Tock. In gratitude- the departed whisper their worries to her- sounding just like her overprotective but loving father: beware this endless night and she who causes it. Because there’s someone else who can hear the whispers- too . . . someone whose gown is a map of the cosmos- hair a tangled constellation- eyes like the lights of faraway stars. The Night Mother. Her elemental duty is to gather the souls of the dead in her lantern- then send them to their eternal rest as beautiful moonlight. But when her hunger for power drives her to take souls from the living- Madeline bravely stands up to defend her town and those she loves. Can Madeline help bring back the sun- or will she be lured by the starry promises of this mysterious woman? Written by Jeremy Lambert (Doom Patrol- Buffy the Vampire Slayer- Goosebumps) and richly illustrated by Alexa Sharpe (Lumberjanes- Buffy the Vampire Slayer- Uncanny Magazine)- The Night Mother is a lush gothic tale perfect for readers of all ages who relish in the wonder of the night sky.
