What is Furthermoor about?

Twelve-year-old Bren escapes the bullying and troubles at home by retreating to Furthermoor, a strange imagined world of mechanised trees and clockwork animals where his sister Evie is still alive. But when the mysterious Featherly appears, Bren’s safe haven begins to change. As Furthermoor grows darker and more dangerous, Bren must face the fears he has been avoiding and decide whether he can find the courage to return to the real world.
