But when the strange visions return - at the worst possible time on the worst possible day - Leopold turns to his best friend Emmet for help.

And soon, he’ll realise that not only is Sunderworld real, but it’s in grave danger.Certain he’s finally been chosen for greatness, Leopold risks everything to claim his destiny, save the world of his childhood dreams, and prove once and for all that he’s not the disappointment his father believes him to be. But when everything goes terribly, horribly, excruciatingly wrong, Leopold’s disappointments prove to be more extraordinary than he ever could have imagined.How do you battle darkness when no one believes in you - not even yourself?Welcome to Sunderworld.

A unique collection of vintage images from the author of the New York Times bestselling illustrated novel Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.With the candid quirkiness of Awkward Family Photos and the confessional intimacy of PostSecret, Ransom Riggs’s Talking Pictures is a haunting collection of antique found photographs with evocative inscriptions that bring these lost personal moments to life. Each image reveals a singular, frozen moment in a person’s life, be it joyful, quiet, or steeped in sorrow. Yet the book’s unique depth comes from the writing accompanying each photo: as with the caption revealing how one seemingly random snapshot of a dancing couple captured the first dance of their forty-year marriage, each successive inscription shines like a flashbulb illuminating a photograph’s particular context and lighting up our connection to the past. “I’m absolutely fascinated . . . there’s just enough written [on the photos] to make each image more powerful, and leave you wanting to know more.” —Boingboing
