Biographical note
L.D. Lapinski lives in the Scottish Highlands with their family, a lot of books, and a cat called Hector. They are the author of The Strangeworlds Travel Agency and Artezans trilogies, the standalone novel Jamie, The Biggest Christmas Secret Ever and Stepfather Christmas. They have also written for BBC's Doctor Who books, and write stories for grown-ups as Lucy Lapinska. L.D. collects tattoos and Sanrio merch, enjoys watching the wildlife from their office window, and when they grow up would like to be a free-range guinea pig farmer. You can find them on social media @ldlapinski or at ldlapinski.comI'm in awe of L.D.'s dream-like writing, every page crackles with magic and they have created a world I'm already desperate to return to. Artezans is nothing short of phenomenal.

I devoured it over the course of two nights - stayed up until about 2am reading which I can't remember having done for a long time. It's excellent: inventive, emotionally charged, equal parts funny and frightening, and utterly enthralling in the way all LD's books are. I really think they're one of the most exciting middle grade writers working today.

Prepare for the magical adventure of your dreams, in the first in a brand-new series by L.D. Lapinski, author of Strangeworlds Travel Agency.
'A stupendous, witty, humane fantasy. Lapinski's done it again - an inventive, compelling world and characters I would die for. LD Lapinski is a genius!' Louie Stowell, author of 'Loki: A Bad God's Guide' series
For the last 400 years, magic has been fading...
Edward Crane has always feared he won't have any magic at all. Sure, he's part of a powerful magic Artezan family, but he's adopted. His twin sister, Elodie, isn't so worried, but then everything always seems to work out perfectly for her.
So when Ed discovers he does have an Artezan power after all, he's relieved. And it's more than he ever could have imagined - in fact, it's a dream come true.
But the problem with dreams is that sometimes they twist themselves into nightmares. And with Ed's new abilities growing by the day, there's a chance that this nightmare will become all too real...
