About this listen

 'Wildly imaginative ... A brilliant combination of urban fantasy and Arthurian legend. Midnight's Twins will appeal to fans of Gaiman's Neverwhere or Schwab's A Darker Shade Of Magic.'
- Katharine Corr, author of A THRONE OF SWANS

The first instalment in a thrilling fantasy trilogy.

Dreams come true, but so do your nightmares ...

Fern King is about to uncover a place that she could not have imagined in all her wildest dreams. Annwn is the dream mirror of our world, a place where Dreamers walk in their slumber, their dreams playing out all around them. An enchanted, mysterious place that feeds our own world - as without dreams, without a place where our imaginations and minds can be nourished, what kind of humans would we be?

But Annwn is a place as full of dangers as it is wonders: it is a place where dreams can kill you. Annwn and its Dreamers are protected by an ancient order known as the Knights - and when Fern's hated twin Ollie is chosen to join their ranks, Fern will have to do whatever she can to prove she is one of them too.

But the world Fern discovers in Annwn, in this dream mirror of her London, is a fragile one, threatened by vicious nightmares. Nightmares that are harder and harder for the Knights to defeat. Something dark is jeopardising the peace and stability of Annwn, something that must be rooted out at all costs.

Gradually, Fern realises that the danger lurking inside our sleep is more insidious and terrifying than any nightmare. Because if you can influence someone's dreams, you can control their thoughts ...©2020 Holly Race (P)2020 Bonnier Books UK Dream Fantasy Science Fiction & Fantasy Fiction

A wonderful and gripping story, brilliantly performed, which draws on Arthurian legend and spins an epic adventure in modern day London and the fantastical world that exists over it, hidden in the realm of sleep.
