In this case, when Kiki returns home from school to surprise her writer dad (who’s known as “The King of Creepy”) ahead of the Christmas break and finds a strange woman in her deceased mother’s place.An edgy ambience is evoked from the off, when Kiki’s train pulls into the end-of-the-line village of Merryweather-by-the-Sea and readers become immersed in Wyrdwood, “an impenetrable crescent of wilderness” that lies beyond Merryweather’s rolling fields.Early on, we’re introduced to an intriguing cast of small-town characters, whom the narrative follows in episodic fashion, layering the plot, and weaving the story, with a jolt coming when Kiki enters her family home to find a strange woman wearing her mother’s clothes: “It wasn’t every day that your father literally picked up a strange woman in the woods and brought her home.”Stranger still to Kiki, all the villagers have fallen for beautiful Fay, who has a habit of wearing a twig in her hair. At the same time, the village teacher has noticed a change in her pupils’ behaviour — they’ve taken to drawing “scarecrow stick figures”, with the “impossibly spindly limbs and bony fingers” of one child’s drawing looking especially “demonic”. Then follows a series of eerie sightings that escalate to so much more.Painstakingly plotted, Wyrdwood weaves a sinister story that twists in unexpected ways, and never lets up on suspense. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/wirral/linghams-junior-book-club-wyrdwood-by-curtis-jobling/100001965278491873 - **Event Categories**: art, fine-arts, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 45 minutes - Location: Linghams Booksellers - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 11.55, max: 11.55, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Wirral - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Linghams Booksellers - **lat**: 53.3290101 - **long**: -3.099763400000029 - **full address**: Linghams Booksellers, 248 Telegraph Road, Wirral, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Linghams Junior Book Club - Wyrdwood by Curtis Jobling - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/e9afd7705a35d1d0e9b4195fb76cb58ae8ae3e98594dc33804f76a3ee1d09f38-rimg-w1200-h1600-dc486972-gmir.jpg?v=1766035346 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Linghams Junior Book Club - Wyrdwood by Curtis Jobling being held? - **A:** Linghams Junior Book Club - Wyrdwood by Curtis Jobling takes place on Sat, 29 Nov, 2025 at 02:00 pm to Sat, 29 Nov, 2025 at 02:45 pm at Linghams Booksellers, 248 Telegraph Road, Wirral, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Linghams Junior Book Club - Wyrdwood by Curtis Jobling? - **A:** Tickets for Linghams Junior Book Club - Wyrdwood by Curtis Jobling are priced at GBP 12 per person.
