With enemies behind him and the unknown ahead, Jacob Portman’s story continues as he takes a brave leap forward into The Conference of the Birds, the fifth novel in the #1 bestselling Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series by Ransom Riggs.
With his dying words, H—Jacob Portman’s final connection to his grandfather Abe’s secret life entrusts Jacob with a mission: Deliver newly contacted peculiar Noor Pradesh to an operative known only as V.

With only a few bewildering clues to follow, Jacob must figure out how to find V, the most enigmatic, and most powerful, of Abe’s former associates. But V is in hiding and she never, ever, wants to be found.

What reviewers said
“The pulse-pounding fifth volume of the Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series continues storylines introduced in Map of Days…. Lost friends are found, boundaries tested, and more surprising history is revealed.
After this installment’s dramatic ending, readers can only hope the next one isn’t long in coming.”

“Boy, can Ransom Riggs tell a story. If he’d been stuck in rainy 1818 Switzerland with Lord Byron, and Mary and Percy Shelley and taken up Byron’s challenge to write a ghost story, Miss Peregrine would have given Frankenstein a run for its money.”
“A visually rich literary experience.”
“[A] chilling, wondrous novel.”
“[A] thrilling, Tim Burton–esque tale with haunting photographs.”
