Exploring a magical world of adventure and peril



As a writer of fantasy, I spend my time when not in my day job, immersing myself in a world of magical creatures and adventures to thrill my readers. My passion for storytelling drives me to explore diverse themes and let my imagination run wild, ensuring each page keeps you engaged and wanting to see what's next!
This book had me totally submerged from the onset - I couldn't put it down! I loved the descriptive notes to set you up about the characters and worlds at the start. The tooing and froing between the main sets of characters was beautifully entwined within the story. Moving from world to world had me completely enthralled. A fabulous dystopian novel and I'm now on book 2.
‘A good solid fantasy adventure with a powerful cover. There’s much for a kid to get his or her teeth into here: magical lands, monsters, a quest, strong and determined characters. The children in my class – three of them, all boys – liked it a lot. Teacher, year 10
‘I thought this story was excellent. It’s quite long but I enjoyed it anyway. I liked all the mythical monsters and the different worlds. The best character was Sam.’ Girl, aged 14
An exciting fantasy asventure. A FINALIST and highly recommended
A mix of Philip Pullman and Trudi Canavan. I found it easy to read, with a fluid style and a compelling story. Looking forward to the next one!
A hidden gem of a book. My son loved every page and can't wait for the next one
