Taggie and her younger sister, Jemima, are just like any other girls their age. They live with their mum, go to school, play sports and spend their holidays with their dad in the countryside. But one day, everything changes . . . when a white squirrel wearing purple glasses turns up in their lives.
The next thing the sisters know, their dad has been kidnapped, and it's up to the girls to get him back. But it seems their father has been keeping some very large secrets from his young daughters, for their dad is no ordinary man. He is an otherworldly prince in exile, and the land he should be ruling, the First Realm, has been overthrown by the King of Night.
Can Taggie and Jemima find their way between the worlds to save their father, and what other secrets has he been hiding? Before long, the sisters realize that it is not just their dad's life at stake. It's the future of a whole world.

Taggie has had a busy year. From finding out she's the queen-to-be of a magical realm to learning to use magic . . . to discovering that someone wants her dead!
Assassins have been targeting royal heirs throughout the magical realms, and everyone thinks the Karrak invaders are responsible. War seems inevitable – yet Taggie has just found out two very interesting facts. Firstly, that the Karraks come from a completely different universe. And secondly, that there was once a gate to this universe – now lost in the mists of time.
If Taggie and her friends can find the gate, perhaps they can also stop the war? But to do so they need to find a Karrak who will take their side . . .
Continue the adventure with A Voyage Through Air.
Invaders are coming. War seems inevitable. Can it be stopped? A Voyage Through Air is the stunning sequel to The Hunting of the Princes and the conclusion to the Queen of Dreams trilogy, from award-winning author Peter F. Hamilton.
War is coming. Every leader of every realm has sided with the War Emperor and pledged to fight the Karrak invaders. That is, apart from Taggie, the teenage Queen of Dreams-to-be.
Aided by an unusual band of allies, including a Karrak Lord, an elf and a feisty skyfolk captain, Taggie knows that the only way to stop the war is to find the long-lost gateway between our universe and the dark universe: the home of the Karrak people.
But where do you begin to look for something that was deliberately hidden? And just how much is Taggie willing to lose in her desperate quest for peace?
