Matthew Skelton

Endymion Spring

In present day Oxford, Blake finds an ancient book of dragon skin in the college library and strange and dangerous things start happening to him. As he looks, words appear on its pages meant only for him. The book binds him inextricably to a printer's devil with the name of Endymion Spring working for Gutenberg in the 15th century, as printing was becoming widespread. This is no ordinary book however, for the secret of all knowledge is held within its pages. Switching cleverly between the centuries, this is both an intriguing story of real history and a modern mystery.
