the twin worlds trilogy…

A short lifetime ago, I wrote a Young Adult Fantasy trilogy [Novel Concept Publishing]. Alas, they sunk almost without trace.

Having read a lot of this genre, I maintain that the story was good. But the editing was atrocious. And the less said about the artwork the better.

However, I include a little blurb here in the doubtless vain hope that a friendly publisher will spruce them up and turn them into the next Lord of the Rings / Wheel of Time / Game of Thrones.

synopsis

The Twin Worlds Trilogy chronicles the adventures of Kal and Daine as they, together with the mysterious mage Juquor, battle an omnipotent dark warrior known as the Reaper, who is gathering an army to end the war he started a generation before.

It is fast-paced, action-packed, ‘swords and sorcery’-style YA fiction. Told in
chapters alternating between Kal and Daine’s perspectives, it subtly introduces readers to challenging topics such as xenophobia, democracy, education and natural selection.

Even got the odd decent review…

“The way the story is written means that you can’t actually stop reading at the end of the chapter because it’s nearly always left on a cliffhanger”

“Would recommend it to anyone who likes Game of Thrones, His Dark Materials etc”

“Amazing…thrilling…I couldn’t leave it for a second till I haven’t read it…”

“The Chamber was definitely not a run of the mill YA fantasy thriller. It was much more than that and will appeal to an older audience.”

“The book is “Fast-paced right from the beginning and the alternation between the two main characters’ perspectives (Daine and Kal) works very well. It is an unusual format, but it keeps the book flowing nicely and helps create tension”

“A great read for teens, young adults and lovers of fantasy dystopian fiction.”

“I was thoroughly engaged throughout as the fantasy became my reality whenever I powered on my kindle and explored its pages.”

“All-in-all, this is a solid fantasy series which most readers should enjoy – it’s more in the George RR Martin camp i.e., heavy on swords as opposed to sorcery vs Brandon Sanderson who tends to be the other way around”
