Secrets and illusions abound as a group of young magicians competes for the prize of a lifetime in this gripping adventure, the first in an enthralling new series from debut author Justyn Edwards.

Magic is about dreaming what is impossible and making it possible. It's the innocent young mind in all of us that loves it. We want to be filled with wonder. We want to believe. I want the winner of this competition and the recipient of my legacy to dare to dream big. So, let The Great Fox Hunt begin."

Thirteen-year-old Flick Lions has won a place on a new television show, in which young people compete to win the legacy of the Great Fox, one of the world's most famous magicians. But Flick isn't interested in uncovering the Great Fox's tired old magic tricks – she's after something much more important. The magician destroyed her family, and this is Flick's only chance to put things right. Inside the Fox's house is a secret that will change the world of magic for ever, and Flick will go to any lengths to find it.

“A delightfully tricky tale of magic and misdirection. A page-turner that’s also great fun to read.” M. G. Leonard, author of Beetle Boy

“A glittering tale of magic and mystery, trust and tricks, friendship and family. Let Justyn Edwards take you behind the scenes of a world of magic and illusion, on a mind-bending adventure to find the truth.” Thomas Taylor, author of

A delightfully tricky tale of magic and misdirection. A page-turner that’s also great fun to read.

M. G. Leonard

The Great Fox Illusion is a glittering tale of magic and mystery, trust and tricks, friendship and family. Let Justyn Edwards take you behind the scenes of a world of magic and illusion, on a mind-bending adventure to find the truth. Reading this brilliant book is like opening a magician’s box of tricks and discovering their secrets for yourself.

The Great Fox Illusion is magic! A page-turning mystery about family, friendship and magic tricks, told with real panache and pizzazz. - Christopher Edge

This book did a vanishing trick on me - I didn't reappear until I'd read the very last page! A spectacular, page-turning mystery that will have you guessing until the very end. I can't wait to see what other stories Justyn Edwards has up his (magician's) sleeve! - Clare Povey

About the Author

Justyn Edwards graduated from Southampton University with a degree in archaeology. Since then he has worked as a caravan park attendant, a paperboy and a software engineer, but never as an archaeologist. He has always wanted to be a writer, and his inspiration for The Great Fox Illusion came from watching magic shows. He realized that what elevates the trick a magician performs is the story that he tells his audience. And in turn, stories themselves are a kind of magic trick with the author choosing when to reveal his secrets to the reader. And so Justyn's debut novel was born.
