Sophie and her people are fighting to belong and thrive on their new home (planet?) after the destruction of their homeland. Now they are sharing this new world with the Calypsans, whose technology is highly advanced, and their world steeped in the folklore of the stars. Their leader, Ziven, wants nothing but peace, yet their civilisation is destined for war. Can the Calypsans survive the turmoil that befalls them? Who will reign supreme...or will both species live in harmony?

Tales from the Mistyk Castle
Summary
The people of the Mistyk Castle are in danger from a world out of balance. The magic that pacifies the Theryal Forest is weakening. Valthos, the dragon that keeps the magic, is growing old. He chooses Princess Clarielle, for her keen mind and strong character, to be his successor. Even with good intentions, snatching children from meadows is generally frowned upon. Young King Daniel faces the challenges of protecting his kingdom and what comes along with having his sister turn into a dragon. The people support their king, save one family who schemes to take his crown. Among the people is one circumstantial hero who is struggling to uncover his origins. Arteim, taken from the meadow along with Clarielle, is that hero. He is torn between finding his family and keeping his promise to Clarielle to become the Watcher of the Wild. Together, they sacrifice what they must to save the land of the Mistyk Castle. Strange creatures and whimsical characters make Tales from the Mistyk Castle a light adventure that is engaging and humorous.

Concrete Faery
Summary
When it comes to fantasy, the world is always bigger than you think it is...even when you live in the smallest town in the deepest corner of the country where, by official records, nothing has happened since Vikings stopped pillaging nearby. Ally Guardian is convinced that the universe wanting anything to do with her is a cosmic joke. Until a strange man appears outside her window and tells her, “I can’t speak to you yet”. Things only get weirder when she is then implicated in a demonic attack on her history teacher and given the new girl, Alana Larbie, to look after as punishment. Alana seems to know an awful lot about demons, claiming they got her kicked out of her old school. Together with Ally’s oldest friend Tanya, and their one “normal” friend, Teb, they decide to investigate. The Troutesponde Series is a YA fantasy, working on the premise that if the supernatural did exist, inquisitive teenagers would be the first to notice, and absolutely the worst people ever to interact with it.
