"The things I've seen, you just wouldn't believe. It's the stuff of nightmares. I couldn't lead you into that world."It's been six months since Gwen first met The Phantom Archer and her life changed forever. Now he is back and has a new message for her. A large rock sits in a graveyard, The Devil's Stone. It's holding something back, something dark and monstrous. If they don't find a way to stop it escaping, the consequences will be disastrous. This starts another adventure for Gwen and her friends, one which will lead to a terrible decision that could change everything.

Curated by novelist Julian Barnes, the celebrated cult diary explores the mysteries and complexities of family bondsThe 2024 Redstone Diary opens a window on that most enigmatic part of our everyday lives: the family. It has been an essential subject for artists, writers, singers, therapists and psychoanalysts. Tolstoy wrote: "All happy families resemble one another, but each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." But was he right? Perhaps Dodie Smith got closer to the truth when she wrote that the family was an octopus "from whose tentacles we never quite escape, nor in our inmost hearts, ever quite wish to." Together or alone, we cannot escape the family.These bonds are explored in a marvelous array of texts selected by Julian Barnes, from writers including Willa Cather, Marcel Proust, Virginia Woolf and Philip Roth.Images feature still captures from home movies; photographs of Depression-era group prayer; psychological tests; and artworks such as Paula Rego's disturbing imagery of fatherhood, Frida Kahlo's reimagining of her genealogy and John Lennon's lyrics to his absent mother.

"Fables and fairytales are for silly hearts and children..."When Gwen witnesses her friends death by a creature she didn't think existed she finds herself accused of his murder. On the run from the very beast that killed her friend, she finds an ally in the ghostly vigilante The Phantom Archer. He protects her and together they discover that there is a reason the beast is hunting her, and far more monsters are going to be on her trail...The Phantom Archer is a historical fantasy perfect for lovers of folklore, fast -paced adventure with sword fights and a good mystery to solve.
