‘The Raven & Other Tales’
A collection of fairy tale retellings and original tales.
A raven appears on a cold winter’s night.
An old woman helps a stranger find his way home.
A young girl encounters a bad-tempered dwarf.
Enter within, where magic is found alongside the ordinary, and things aren’t always what they seem. Where curiosity leads to a nightmare. Where ashes have the power to transform. And where stolen mortals are doomed to be forever lost in the forest.

‘Moon Goddess’
For the villagers living in the shadow of their ruling lords who view them as little more than property, marriage is the only way to protect their vulnerable daughters.
Although Lamorna knows this, she keeps hoping for a way out of her impending marriage. For her, marriage means having to leave her parents, her friends, her home… all that’s familiar and safe.
But when the unthinkable happens, and priests order soldiers to take her infant brother, Lamorna has no choice but to flee her beloved home.
On the run with a baby, pursued by soldiers, Lamorna finds unexpected help in the form of wolves, wise women and an ancient goddess.

‘The Cursed Gift’
In a world where magic is believed to no longer exist, Leah secretly wishes she was someone other than the king’s daughter. Someone different, someone free to choose the course of her own life.

With the lives of her beloved family under threat, Leah has no choice but to do Belosh’s bidding. Conscious of his darkness in her, conscious of the fear she’s awakened in her people, Leah fights to hold fast to her true self.
