Resumen del Editor

A sweeping adventure filled with a hidden island, family secrets, shocking betrayals, amazing music, and girl power, by iconic Spice Girl, songwriter and author Geri Halliwell-Horner.

It's time to find your power.

Suddenly orphaned and alone, Rosie Frost is sent to the mysterious Bloodstone Island—home not only to a school for extraordinary teens, but also a sanctuary for endangered species. There, Rosie confronts a menacing deputy headmaster, a group of mean kids intent on destroying her, and shocking family secrets. She also discovers that history can come to life in ways she never could have imagined.

When the island itself comes under threat, Rosie knows she must enter and win the Falcon Queen games in a desperate bid to save it.

But Rosie can't do it alone. She finds that believing in herself—and her friends—is the first step to finding the power she never knew she had.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This book mixes elements of fantasy with history, mystery, and adventure, but it is, at its core, a coming-of-age story. Rosie blossoms when she starts to let her walls down, and the supporting characters who eventually become her friends round out the story. The school and the island are fantastic settings: readers will be bursting to visit Bloodstone Island, with its rare creatures and old secrets. If an English boarding school on an island full of wild, rare animals isn’t enough to grab readers, Rosie Frost, an empowering new heroine, certainly will."—School Library Journal

"This contemporary, girl-power story has light paranormal and fantastical elements and is fueled by a captivating mystery and adventure. It also features quick pacing, fun and engaging worldbuilding, and a lead character who is easy to root for. Exuberant, action-packed, and warmhearted."—Kirkus Reviews

"[A]n effervescent fantasy series . . . smart twists rooted in real-life history add excitement, and Anne Boleyn’s indomitable spirit literally and figuratively haunts this lively debut, inspiring Rosie and propelling the tale’s feminist, eco-preservationist message."—Publishers Weekly

Rosies's Awesome Adventure

Rosie Frost, was a very kind teenager. Her mother had died and she was sent to a private school. Rosie met some very interesting students and one bad apple as an administrator.
Each page kept me riveted to this book until I finished.. Excellently written and narrated. God bless you and your family.

One Spice to rule them all

Ginger Spice!! Wow!! This book is fantastic and I hope it becomes a series, nay, FRANCHISE. Is there anything this woman can’t do??

Geri Halliwell at her best!

Thank you Geri for releasing such an amazing story of life, love, fantasy and history! Bravo!!

truly amazing

Loved Geri when she sang, love her now when she tells stories. There isn't a single second wasted in this story, a bestseller to be.

This One’s for the Girls

Rosie Frost and the Falcon Queen is an adventure almost anyone can get inspired by. Rosie is your ordinary girl living her ordinary life; often bullied and her mom is her best friend. Sadly her mother suddenly passes away, leaving Rosie orphaned and taken to a mysterious Bloodstone Island with endangered animals and a school for children with bloodlines to Queen Elizabeth I. This story has history, a ghost queen, tests your morals, nail biting challenges that the students engage in for the title of the Falcon Queen Champion. It's a gripping adventure and is set to be a trilogy and possibly a film!

Perfect

I definitely need second book!! It is a great story to expand on and combine with history

I loved this book!!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and I loved that Geri narrated it in her own voice. The important messages that she incorporated throughout this book make it extra special. Rosie Frost kept me on my toes and I felt that I was living through everything alongside her. She is definitely the hero this world needs. I can’t wait to listen to the next book!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Imaginative

This book was wonderful - full of imagination and with every chapter I just wanted to continue reading!!

Geris voice is like a serotonin boost, great story

Geri could read me the phone book and I would love it! Her voice is like a serotonin boost to my ear drums! The story of Rosie is interesting, too! Definitely taking nods from Harry Potter and Hunger Games it's interesting to see the story arch of the main character, the friends she meets along the way, and some of the questions left unanswered by the end that make me eager to hear part 2 and 3! Well worth the listen, and you'll get wrapped up in the story. I listened to it all the way though on a flight from LA to Asia, which I normally sleep on but was too invested in the adventure!

Ginger Spiced up MY life

at 1st I wasn't sure i liked the book ... regardless of my Fandom to the Spice Girls or Geri Halliwell.
however, this is an excellent book. Geri performs at an exceptional level and her writing is very good. I was hooked and couldn't stop listening. I was even good with the ending... it felt natural and satisfying.
