Reviews

In this adventure, Wulfgar, the hero invented by Christina Eastwood for these stories, returns to Wessex, which I love as my own native area, and quickly becomes aware of differences of thought and outlook from his sojourn in East Francia, in the area we now call France... His questions are ones people ask and debate today, and it is as important now as it has ever been for us to search for answers to them. -- David M. Young


Author Information

I've written stories for children since I was a child myself. When my own children arrived I was too busy to write any down but I told them plenty of tales. Once they grew up and could stand on their own two feet I had the chance to write stories again and it is wonderful fun! Samuele (Trasna na Dtonnta) and Wulfgar are characters that I love so much I am sorry to have finished their adventures and shut the book on them. I'm a compulsive writer now and there are all sorts of things buzzing about in my brain – I only hope I can get it all down on paper – In fact I'd better stop writing this right now and get on with the job!
