Chingles from the East

(Poolbeg Press Oct. 1, 2004) , 1 edition

Legend has it that the giant Balor of the Evil Eye will return bent on revenge to destroy the remote island of Inish Alainn in his search for a magical stone. The only ones who can stop him are the mysterious “Chingles from the East”. But what does this have to do with Cassie, Thomas and Nancy who are spending their summer holiday on the island with their Uncle Jarlath?

Before they are even off the ferry, the children are plunged into an adventure where they encounter mischievous and dangerous creatures from Irish myth, learn of the mysterious powers of shapeshifting and meet the magical trees of the Sacred Grove.

If that wasn’t enough, they also have to contend with Sir Dignum Drax, the nasty tycoon who wants to cover the island in concrete. What is his link to the evil giant Balor and can the children master their new-found magical skills in time to take on Balor and his awesome powers?
