She certainly doesn’t believe that the bluish star she can see in the distance is the Ethereal Realm, a world where there is no cold, suffering or hunger. Her friend Aer, the son of a foreigner, does believe and, when Aer disappears, Bipa knows where he’s gone. Surprisingly Aer comes back but he has changed, and seems cold and distant. When he leaves again, Bipa resolves to follow him and she’s given an opal to take with her to ‘keep her heart warm’.

So begins a momentous journey to the Ethereal Realm. As she gets closer, Bipa realises that her role in this is far bigger than she imagined and that the Ethereal Realm is not as it seems.

A huge bestseller in Spain, this is a very original and beautifully-written story with wonderful imagery and settings.
