I saw this doing the rounds on Facebook, a few weeks ago, & thought I’d put the first 2 books in my Kids of Kernow series to the test!
Here goes:-
BOOK 1 – ‘Magical Mossy in Boscastle’
“The raven Kismet was sunning himself, as usual, on his favourite jutty-out bit of rock.”
The inspiration for this was taken from this photo, snapped whilst doing the coastal walk between Tintagel & Trebarwith – many moons ago!
BOOK 2 – ‘Mossy Casts A Spell in Bude’
” Fluffed up to twice his usual size, the raven Kismet shivered tentatively on top of a yellow beach hut.”
As you’ve probably gathered by now, Kismet the raven features very heavily in both books & yes- he will, in Books 3 & 4 too!
Presently, I’m considering Book 4 to be mostly from his viewpoint!
I’ve been told by a fan of my books that whenever her little girl sees a black-coloured bird now, she names it Kismet & expects it to have a conversation with her!
Ahh! Isn’t that lovely!
I’ve been busy, recently having Book 1 re-printed as it SOLD OUT
And so I’ve taken the opportunity to add the award on the front cover & make the blurb on the back a lot clearer!
What do you think?
Both book 1 & 2 are still available to buy direct from me ( if you’re not local) – including collectible hardback copies of Book 2 from here!
🎅🎅I’m thinking Christmas presents???🎅🎅
Apart from that- as usual, all books are available locally from these stockists & my publisher
AND- BOOK 1 is even on Waterstones website!!
Does that mean that the Kids of Kernow have finally arrived?
🤞🤞🤞
Catch you next week!
