An extract from The Red Stone

Hi all,

Here's a small extract from The Red Stone. Just to give a little taste of what the book is about. I'm busy working on a new edit of the book at the moment. Just to get the flow of the writing just that little bit better. I will try to post again before the end of the year but if I don't. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I hope you guys have a good one!

----The men got the fright of their lives, one even feinted when he saw the big dragon appear out of no where, breathing fire on them. The two black wolves in front jumped for Berrinn’s throat. He knocked the one aside with his clawed front paw, and the other one got a hold of his thick scaly throat. Berrinn’s paws couldn’t reach to get rid of the wolf. He was going to have to do something drastic to get the wolf off.

----“Are you all right? Do you need help?” asked Tennen desperately.

----“Nothing that I can’t handle.”

----So Berrinn took to the air, the black wolf’s jaws were set in place, and weren’t going to move. Berrinn flew so high that you couldn’t see him. After a few moments, they could see something coming down at a speed. It was Berrinn, whistling along towards the ground. But where was he going at such a speed? The next thing, the bronze dragon smashed into a house, mortar, glass, wood and furniture went flying everywhere.

----“Oh no!” yelled Tennen, but it was no matter to be concerned about, because Berrinn came out the other side, less one black wolf. It was the most amazing thing Tennen had ever seen.

Finally have a copy of The Red Stone in my hands!!

Hi,





I'm really happy to report that I have a copy of my book in my hands! They came in yesterday. And I have to see that it looks even better than I had hoped. It looks really cool and the red cover certainly makes it stand out!


You're most probably wondering why I only have a copy of the book now. Seeing as though I'm the one who wrote it! It was published in the USA and I'm in the UK and as you most likely know post isn't very fast sometimes.

I've up loaded a pic so you guys can see what a real copy looks like :-).

Thanks to all the people who have visited my blog and made comments. But don't worry I will be posting more!

The Red Stone is Now Available to Buy Online in South Africa!

I've been searching the internet and found a website in South Africa that stocks my book. It seems like the delivery time might be a little slow but it seems to be very reasonably priced! Cheaper than buying it directly from the publisher!
