Résumé
The Cabinet of Earths, Anne Nesbet's debut novel for tweens, blends fantasy, science, and horror into an irresistible story in the vein of the classic His Dark Materials series. Twelve-year-old Maya is miserable when she has to move from California to Paris. Not speaking French at a school full of snobby French girls is bad enough, but Maya believes there is something sinister going on in her new city.
A purple-eyed man follows Maya and her younger brother, James. Statues seem to have Maya's face. And an eerie cabinet filled with mysterious colored bottles calls to her. When James becomes the target of dark forces, Maya decides she must answer the call of the Cabinet of Earths, despite the danger. In a city of ancient magic and hidden ambitions, saving her family means confronting the impossible.
A Paris Setting with a Magical Twist: Maya thought Paris was just a city of snobby schools and rainy streets-until she discovers statues with her own face and a power that hums beneath the cobblestones. An Ancient Mystery: A mysterious man with purple eyes seems to be everywhere, an agent of a society that deals in alchemy, immortality, and dangerous family secrets. High-Stakes Family Adventure: When her younger brother James becomes a target, Maya must find the courage to protect him, even if it means stepping into a world of danger she doesn't understand.
Classic Fantasy Feel: Perfect for fans of His Dark Materials, this is a timeless story of a brave girl discovering her own hidden power and fighting for what she loves.
