When a mysterious crate arrives at Mr Krumpfelbaum's labyrinthine bookshop at precisely eleven-and-five-eighths, words bury themselves like seeds, clocks begin running backwards and a journey through time begins.
Filled with wandering words, ghost dragons, hidden valleys, ancient obligations, enchanted gardens and a two-headed winged cat, Krumpfelbaum and the Seeds of Time is a wildly imaginative novel about memory, inheritance, sacrifice and the stories that shape the world around us.
