The Ghosts of Heaven, by Marcus SedgwickRead about the other books on the list.
The young prehistoric girl at the center of the first story in this four-part book discovers a powerful ability previously unknown in her time: she writes. Undertaking this skill leads to an encounter with a mysterious spiral that links the girl to gifted individuals from other time periods: a persecuted young witch, a madman with terrifying visions, and an astronaut lost in time. But are these characters truly gifted, or is the world we live in simply stranger than we know?
