A magical environmental fantasy for readers aged 12+

Older readers will be enchanted by The Edge of the Silver Sea by Alex Mullarky, which comes with an accompanying activity pack, which we created for Parrot Street Book Club subscribers in November2024.

“The Edge of the Silver Sea has a stunning setting, intriguing mystical premise, hugely relatable lead character and an important message about our relationship with the world around us. We loved it!"
~Sarah

All 13-year-old Blair Zielinski wants is a way off the remote Scottish island her parents have dragged her to. Roscoe is home to thousands of deer, a couple of hundred people, a complete lack of cell signal, and some unusual violet-eyed creatures.

Blair is miserable, until an otherworldly woman with antlers, one of the island's darkly magical fey folk, offers her an irresistible deal: complete three tasks and Blair's wish will be granted.

As she unravels the island's secrets, Blair soon discovers that a fey bargain cannot be broken, and her wish has put everyone on Roscoe at risk. Can Blair find a way to save her family, and the place at the edge of the silver sea that she has come to call home?

Alex Mullarky is a writer and veterinary nurse whose work with wildlife inspires their stories about nature and magic. They can often be found wild swimming, playing roller derby, or running along the beach with their dog Finn. Alex lives with their family near Edinburgh, Scotland.

The activity pack includes stickers, book club-style questions to ponder and a welcome note from Alex Mullarky. There’s also a wildlife-inspired word puzzle to solve and instructions for making an abstract mosaic, alongside jokes and further reading recommendations.

Activity packs are a handy A5 size and printed on uncoated paper which is fully recyclable.
