- More about Glassheart
"Fantasy at its best." The Daily Telegraph
"With echoes of Susan Cooper, this has all the feel of a classic." Sarah Baker
“A masterfully written story surging with powerful energy.” Sinéad O'Hart
An enchanting magical adventure set in the wild moors of Dartmoor – the second middle-grade novel from the author of Nevertell.
Through the glass, the magic is waiting…
Nona and her uncle travel everywhere together, replacing stained-glass windows in war-torn buildings. When a mysterious commission takes them to the lonely moors of Dartmoor, Nona discovers a wild and powerful magic which threatens everything. Can Nona protect those she loves – even if it means fighting darkness itself?
A beautifully imaginative and rich adventure about determination, courage and the power of love, set in the aftermath of World War Two. Perfect for fans of Abi Elphinstone, Sophie Anderson and Catherine Doyle.

“Rich and atmospheric, Glassheart feels like a long-lost folktale brimming with ghostly magic.” Jennifer Bell

Praise for Nevertell:
“This is fantasy at its best.” Daily Telegraph

“Readers will be captivated … A magical, snowy adventure perfect for winter nights.” BookTrust
“Featuring themes of bravery, friendship, sorcery and survival, this beautifully written story is ideal for fans of magical adventure tales.” The Week Junior
“A tale that sparkles with frosty magic.” Thomas Taylor
“Orton's use of language is masterful and her vivid descriptions bring the journey to life … Perfect to snuggle up with on a winter's afternoon.” ReadingZone
