With all the magic of Narnia and the humour of Mary Poppins, this is a future middle grade fantasy classic – and the beginning of an unforgettable journey… Imogen should be nice to her little sister Marie. She should be nice to her mum’s boyfriend too. And she certainly shouldn’t follow a strange silver moth through a door in a tree. But then… who does what they’re told? Followed by Marie, Imogen finds herself falling into a magical kingdom where the two sisters are swept up in a thrilling race against time – helped by the spoiled prince of the kingdom, a dancing bear, a very grumpy hunter… and even the stars above them. Thrilling, sharply funny, and with characters you will fall in love with, A Clock of Stars is a timeless fantasy from an astonishing new voice.

I loved all the adventure in this book and the fact that 2 girls made friends with a boy. My favourite character is Imogen because she is adventurous and kind.

Amazing and breath-taking. The author tricks you in thinking the good characters are the bad ones, and the bad characters are the good ones. As a matter of fact all characters have good and bad sides in this story. There are ruthless skrate (type of monsters), greedy kings and queens, a spoilt prince, dancing bears and two sisters who don't co-operate very well. All the sisters wanted to do is to get back to their own world but there is a bit of a problem..

I loved Imogen, she is so determined, kind and loving to her little sister Marie. The book was really long, but I loved it so much I read it all in two days! I'd definitely recommend it to almost any reader from about eight years old. There were skret, monsters that come out at night, which is why I recommend an age limit.

For this book, I liked it quite a lot. A doorway in a tree? An unique approach to the idea of finding a new world in some of the most random of things or places , like wardrobes or in libraries. It showed good character development of Miro as he seemed to understand the true power of friendship.
