When Victorian ghost Edward Fitzberranger is invited to visit his medieval ancestor Sir Francis, his friends Ruby and Jayden go along too – and they find themselves joining him on an adventure. Sir Francis has been sent by King John to fetch a mystical relic from an ancient and abandoned church. But does he know the true reason for his quest?
Through a spooky forest and across a river, the time-travellers face magical guardians and the powers of the spirit world. Will they ever return to Fitzberranger Castle – and to the present day?
A brand-new Spirits novel from award-winning children’s author Rob Keeley, The Spirit of Adventure is an exciting and suspenseful fantasy adventure quest. Perfect for confident readers, reluctant readers or as a holiday gift. It would also make an excellent class reader, being set in the Middle Ages while looking at some contemporary themes.
