Breve biografia
An environmentalist since a child, I have worked on organic farms, conservation projects and for the campaigning organisation Friends of the Earth. In 2008 my debut novel won the inaugural Times/Chicken House children's fiction competition and I am now part author, part mum.

"Året är 2216. Klimatförändringarna gör att England ligger under vatten. Hänsynslösa pirater tar sig fram på vattnet. De kidnappar premiärministerns dotter och kriget är hotande nära. Hoppet står till den unga Lilly och piratpojken Zeph. De har en magisk juvel ifrån gången tid som kanske kan hjälpa dem. En spännande framtidsvision och piratroman."

A fast paced read with lots of action, mystery and unknown.
The setting was difficult to picture, until it finally dawned on my boys that we were in the future and world technology had been destroyed. (I had to explain this to them. They didn't catch this.)
Because our family doesn't "game" much of the setting was probably lost to us.

In spite of all that, the action kept them interested and reading ahead before I could read to them.

Issues of friendship, loyalty, bravery all came to play as the two main characters had to make hard choices for their next steps.

We have the sequel already checked from the library ready to read!

"Flutland" würde ich für Jugendliche ab 12 Jahen empfehlen. In der Welt kämpfen in einer postapokalyptischen Welt Piraten gegen Engländer und Schotten, wobei nur letztere noch eine Ahnung von der Technologie ("Putern") der alten Welt haben. Die Hauptcharaktere, Emily und Seph, sind selbst noch Jugendliche. Sie eine Fischerin mit Schiffskatze aus England, er Sohn eines Piraten-Clanoberhaupts, der sich gegen seinen Halbbruder beweisen muss. Generell eine irgendwie bezaubernde kleine Geschichte, aber deutlich auf ein jüngeres Zielpublikum zugeschnitten.… (altro)

Excellent stuff! Properly spooky but still readable by kids (not gorey); I didn't know what was going to happen next and I enjoyed the ride immensely. Will read more by this author!
