The Sapwood Tales

Join Lucy, Doe, and Colin on a wild adventure in the mysterious world of the Sapwoods, where we meet strange tribes-folk and cast special spells, explore old mines, and invent clever devices, and fight for our lives using only our wits and a rather large knobbly parsnip - and it all begins when we discover a rare amber gem with a magical Sprite trapped inside. We travel to a far-away town to seek help from a Great Magician, but when we get there, something happens, and everything changes!

Will Lucy swap the gem for a pair of funny gloves and a new pencil case? Will Doe hop about like a rabbit? And will Colin splat-a-duck with his new Three-Bolt-Catapult?

All these questions - and more! - will be answered in The Sapwood Tales – The Adventures of Lucy, Doe, and Colin, a story stuffed with dim-witted humour and a lot of giggling.

The Time Bunker

If you could travel into the past and prevent the death of your father, would you? Thirteen-year-old Noel Villan must make this decision in a story of bereavement, time travel and nuclear war. Noel has discovered a bunker within the forest near his hometown. What appears at first to be an air-raid shelter is found to be a forgotten Cold-War era time machine, capable of sending humans into the past to prevent the end of the world after a nuclear war. Noel plans to use the machine to change the past and prevent the accident that took his father’s life. Along the way, he learns about an enigmatic character, Owen Milburn, who mysteriously disappeared without a trace in 1989 and his involvement in the nuclear deterrent programme. Who exactly is Owen Milburn? What are those huge golf ball structures that dominate the landscape outside of his hometown? What is the Ministry of Defence? And can he, or more importantly, should he prevent his father’s death?

The World Through My Eyes

You might be wondering why this child is writing the story of her life down. There’s nothing interesting in a little “farm girl’s” life story or her view on how messed up the world is. You may be right. I’m not a big, wise person. However, I felt like I had a lot of things I needed to get off my chest, and also, when I was younger, I kind of wished I knew of someone similar to my age now, who was ready to speak about certain things with a freshly turned adult’s mind.

I do believe that sometimes young adults need young adults to share their perspectives because we speak a similar, if not the same language.
