I am writing to let you know how good your books are! They are very descriptive and the adventures are exciting. My favourite characters are probably Arca, Oswain, Mrs Trotter and Trotter. You are my favourite author.

Jessica

My name is Simon and I am 8 years old. I like reading your books. I like the way your cliffhangers make me read on.

Simon

I really like your books of the Oswain Tales. I really like your strong verbs and your exciting adjectives. Also I want you to write another one please.

Daniel 

I love your Oswain book...it was outstanding. My favourite character is Arca because Arca is very brave and he helped Joshua and Andrew get their way home to Trotter's house. My favourite scene is when they had the battle. I loved the book and loved reading it. It was a beautiful story and it was splendi

Megan

I am writing to tell you how much I am enjoying your book, Gublak's Greed. After this book I want to read Hagbane's Doom. My favourite is Gublak because he is always trying to get the Star Stone from Alena but never succeeds. The best chapter I like is The Slabs of Dringol because you don't know if the little man is working with Gublak.

Mark

I like you book called Hagbane's Doom. It is very exciting. I like the names of the characters, Stiggle and Aldred. I also like the name Hagbane's Doom. How long does it take to publish a book?

James New Zealand

I am a great fan of all your books. I like the first book in the series the best. My favourite is where they invade Hagbane's castle and rescue Joshua. My favourite character is Stiggle or Mrs Trotter.

Gareth

About two months ago I finished reading the first of the Oswain series, Hagbane's Doom, and I really enjoyed it. I think it is one of the best books I have read.

Emily

I really enjoyed your books. Mr favourite book is Gublak's Greed because I never got bored of it and there is a lot of action in the book. Are there any books coming in the future?

Charles

We are writing to tell you that we thoroughly enjoyed your book Hagbane's Doom. We liked it because it was exciting and interesting .Our favourite characters were Trotter, Arca and Fumble, Mumble and Grumble. We were wondering how you were inspired writing a book about a beautiful country that was overcome by Hagbane. We also liked it because we could always picture what was happening in your mind.

Alex & John

I am writing to tell you how much I enjoy your books. My favourite book is Hagbane's Doom because I like it when Hagbane steals the Merestone and Oswain and his party try to get it back. My favourite characters are Fumble, Mumble and Grumble because they're a bit stupid and very clumsy.

Neil

I like your books very much. I've finished reading Hagbane's Doom and I loved it. I've got Gublak's Greed as well. When did you start writing your first story? Did you decide to become a writer at school or at college?

Kathryn

I'm at the moment reading one of your books called Hagbane's Doom. My sister recommended it to me. I'm certainly glad that she did, because I'm really enjoying it. I liked the bit when the animals escaped down the holes. By the way, did you base any characters on a certain person, animal or thing. Do you own any pets or animals? Do you or did you have any brothers or sisters?

Judy

I would like to tell you that I have loved your books and I hope you will write lots more. I especially enjoyed Gublak's Greed. God bless!!!

Melissa USA

I have just finished reading one of your books called Hagbane's Doom and I really enjoyed reading it; it was really exciting! My favourite subject is English and writing. How long does it take you to write one book? Are your characters based on other people?

Charlotte

I enjoy reading your books, especially Hagbane's Doom. How did you think of such a good book? Did you ever picture yourself as being an author?
