An exciting new middle-grade historical adventure from the bestselling author of Darwin's Dragons. 1666. When 11-year-old bookish Gil finds a strange ‘heaven stone’ by the Thames, he never thought it would hatch. Or that so soon after the Great Plague, a small fire in London would become a deadly inferno.

Soon Gil, his phoenix, and his spiky friend Jennet must cross the burning city, avoid a terrifying mob, and find a place where they can all be safe.

The fourth middle-grade historical adventure by hugely successful and critically acclaimed Lindsay Galvin. A unique spin on the infamous tragedy with Galvin’s original mix of mythology, history and science. The Great Fire of London is a favourite National Curriculum teaching topic. A touching animal friendship at the heart of the story.
