The Visitor from the Other Side is a fantasy story in which three very different teenagers have to deal with everyday situations that will be very familiar to the readers (bullying, romantic crushes, family relationships). At the same time, they must learn to take control of their emotions as they find themselves caught up in a conflict with consequences across two different worlds; a conflict which, it seems, they are destined to resolve. Aimed at readers aged 12 and over who will easily empathise with the characters, as they are likely to share more than one of their desires, worries and fears. This sense of connection is reenforced by the fact that the story is told in the first person by one of the characters, Paul, in a tone of voice and language that is easily relatable.
