In this sweeping fantasy, Jack faces strange and dreadful challenges: antagonistic creatures that are literally half human; winged sets of eyes; people - including his mother - turned to stone. But he has the help of a small, brave dog; a girl transported from the twentyfirst century; and the undying love of his mother. And perhaps enemies can change, too.
Will these be enough to help him save London?

Industry Reviews

Praise for 'The Battle of the Sun': 'Winterson's prose is incantatory, using repetition and resonant tautologies ... This is not a book to dash through. It is one to read slowly or aloud, in order to explore its complexity' Nicolette Jones, The Sunday Times 'A beautifully crafted tale ... it's obvious in every word, every plot twist, and every character that Winterson had fun writing The Battle of the Sun. This book radiates enjoyment, and the reader can bask in it. I was mesmerised by craft of an endlessly inventive author writing at the height of her power' Guardian Praise for 'Tanglewreck': 'An exceptional book: big, ambitious and awash with Winterson's usual inventiveness' Observer 'Winterson has a fine ear for children's dialogue and her writing is lucid, pitched perfectly at imaginative young readers' Sunday Telegraph
