Summary

Waterstones Children's Book of the Month. 

Patch Brightwater is a boy in disgrace. Thrown in jail for playing a forbidden spell, he is no one's idea of a hero. But then he discovers a deadly truth - the evil Piper of Hamelyn is on the loose. 

With the help of Wren, a girl cursed to live as a rat, and Barver, a fire-breathing dracogriff, Patch must stop the Piper sparking the biggest battle of them all. 

Three accidental heroes versus one legendary villain...an epic adventure is born.

Brilliant concept, well executed!

The continuation of the Pied Piper of Hamelin that you didn't know you needed. Having such a well known starting point means that you already feel connected to the story from the start, so it was very quick to grab the attention.

I love that there is a main character who communicates in sign language, even though the bulk of the story is about music. It would be interesting in future to read about whether D/deaf or HoH people in the story are affected by music in the same way.
