Magic awaits, if you dare to believe.
When Phyllo accidentally burns down the big top he can forget his dream of being a magical confectioner. It's the Circuit for him instead.
Now he must face a daunting string of magical apprenticeships, his first with the Fabulous Volante: the gravity-defying flyers of the high trapeze.
Training is knee-trembling and mind-bogglingly dangerous but when Phyllo is found at the heart of yet another disaster, he realises it's not just his nerves that are holding him back.
Other acts crumble.
Masked men stalk the cast.
Something dark and evil conspires against them all and, Phyllo discovers, if the Circus of Wonder is to survive, they must solve the problems of the past... or lose the magic forever.
A delicious blend of death-defying circus acts, magic and adventure that reminds us to believe in ourselves and each other.
