Little, Brown Books for Young Readers Griffin, K: The Glass God

Sharon Li: apprentice shaman and community support officer for the magically inclined. It wasn't the career Sharon had in mind, but she's getting used to running Magicals Anonymous and learning how to Be One With The City. When the Midnight Mayor goes missing, leaving only a suspiciously innocent-looking umbrella behind him, Sharon finds herself promoted. Her first task: find the Midnight Mayor. The only clues she has are a city dryad's cryptic warning and several pairs of abandoned shoes... Suddenly, Sharon's job feels a whole lot harder. Praise for Stray Souls, the first book in the Magicals Anonymous series 'Flawlessly balances horror and humour . . . a funny yet frightening read about the supernatural-induced demise of London . . . unique and addictive' SciFi Now 'Griffin's writing is as fluent and enjoyable as always, with a hint of humour that verges on Pratchett-esque' SFX
