}}The Lie Tree is the seventh children's fantasy novel by Frances Hardinge, published in 2015 by Macmillan Publishers. The book won the 2015 Costa Book of the Year.[2]

Synopsis

The Lie Tree is set in the male-dominated Victorian scientific society, and tells the story of Faith Sunderly, a 14-year-old girl whose father is killed in mysterious circumstances after the family moves to the fictional island of Vane. In her efforts to discover what happened to her father, and to follow his footsteps of studying natural science, she discovers a tree that provides truths by feeding off whispered lies.

Reception

The Guardian praised The Lie Tree's "convincing picture of the times" and Hardinge's "trademark wit and intelligence", calling the book "at once entertaining and provocative".[3] The Daily Mail included the book in its 2015 summer reading lists, describing it as "a superb Victorian murder melodrama ... a gripping thriller that challenges on every level",[4] and The Sunday Times named the book its children's book of the year for 2015.[5]

In the 2015 Costa Book Awards, The Lie Tree won both in the Children's Book Award category and the overall Book of the Year, an achievement only previously managed by Philip Pullman's The Amber Spyglass in 2001.[6] The judges for the Children's Book Award "loved [the] dark, sprawling, fiercely clever novel", stating it would "grip readers of all ages",[7] while the chair of the judges for the Book of the Year award described the book as a "real page turner", suitable for adults as much as for children.[6]
