The captivating conclusion of Maurice Gee's classic fantasy trilogy

In the third novel of Maurice Gee’s acclaimed trilogy, Susan and Nick engage in a last desperate quest for O.

'King,' they said, trying out the word, 'Osro is King. 'Now, stand up,' Osro said. 'Take me to Susan's door. You are my hands and I am your head. Soon O will be ours.'

For Susan and Nick the adventure at last seems at an end. They are leaving the magical land of O, the scene of The Halfmen of O and The Priests of Ferris. But even as they prepare to step back to Earth, strange and evil forces reach out to ensnare them. For Susan and for the Motherstone there is one final, frightening task.

Motherstone is the last thrilling book in Maurice Gee's saga of the world of O.

Praise for Motherstone: The O Trilogy Volume 3

My inheritance from O is simple: the planet has a pulse. Gee’s gift to children’s literature is the characterisation of a world that it is worth saving, in and of itself. For itself.

Megan Dunn, The Sapling

Brilliant. I found the book very thought provoking, its a great story with a lot of layers and wonderful characters and ideas.
