Skandar And The Skeleton Curse

Skandar and the Skeleton Curse by A.F. Steadman is a pacy middle grade fantasy that turns unicorn lore on its head—fierce, untamed and dangerously addictive reading. With elemental magic, sky-borne battles and a tight-knit quartet at its heart, it’s a series-book you’ll want to sprint through.

As Skandar and his friends return for their fourth year at the Eyrie, a sinister curse begins spreading through the Island’s unicorns, warping everything the riders thought they understood. With political power plays closing in, old grudges resurfacing, and the spirit element under threat, Skandar’s world shrinks to a single urgent question: how do you fight a curse that’s already inside the herd?

Perfect for readers aged 9+ who love action-packed adventure, magical schools, friendship under pressure, and high-stakes quests—especially fans of Harry Potter and Percy Jackson.
