The Keeper of the Isis Light
(H Hamilton)
978-0241104057, RRP £5.50, Hardcover
10-14 Middle/Secondary
'Not another science fiction' was my first reaction - not being a sci-fi fan. But this one is different. It's a story of boy meets girl; of deep urgent feelings and conflicting confusing emotions. Girls of twelve and over will enjoy it more than boys, as it's basically sixteen-year-old Olwen's search for the truth about herself. With a few most unusual surprises. Also, a very modern story - raising ethical and moral issues which linger in the mind long after the final page. A paperback edition can't come too soon.
