The Tower at Moonville

This is a fast-moving fantasy story about what happens when two orphans, Nathan and Sam, swap places. Sam runs off with a circus, and Nathan finds himself in the strangest kind of school where no one learns anything and an odd scientist in the tower wants to enlist his help in contacting life
from outer space. Set in the author's own idiosyncratic version of nineteenth-century England, this is an amusing and exciting adventure.

Stephen Elboz lives in Northamptonshire and divides his time between teaching and writing. His first book, The House of Rats, won the Smarties Young Judges Prize for the 9-11 category. The Tower at Moonville is now being reissued in a smaller, mass-market paperback format.
