The book of lies - by James Moloney

Imagine waking up in an orphanage with no memory of who or what you were because your memory has been erased by a powerful spell placed on you by Lord Alwyn.  But the spell has not been complete, because Robert can remember that his name really is Marcel.

Here begins his quest to escape from the orphanage and find his true parents. He is aided in his adventure by Nicola and Fergus, as they  learn more about all the lies that surround them, and how it is impossible to trick the Book of Lies, it will know if you speak the truth, or not. As their bond of friendship grows stronger and stronger they are tested to the limits.

Mercy by Rebecca Lim

I love meeting authors. I never get tired of getting that little bit closer to a character, getting to glimpse at the secrets behind the scenes and seeing inside the mind of someone's creative process.
I got to meet and talk and laugh with Rebecca Lim during the 'About the Girls' session at Kew Library. And she signed my book, star struck! Sigh, I know I'm a geek but now I feel I am somehow connected to the book. I was able to read it with a cool glint in my eye. Yes, there is only one degree of separation between Rebecca Lim and me.

It wasn't just meeting Rebecca that convinced me to read Mercy, there is some great writing to back it up. It is a smart take on a paranormal genre, beautifully written and it has great hook. Told from the first person, Mercy wakes up in someone else's body. There is a kidnapping to solve and a personal quest to find out who Mercy really is?

If you want to feel the rush of meeting an author make sure you attend one of the 'About the' sessions at Kew Library.

About the Girls meet Kirsty Murray July 26, 7pm
About Us All meet James Maloney August 23, 7pm

Tamlyn by James Moloney

This is the second book in the Silvermay series and it lives up to the exciting standard set by Silvermay. The book opens with baby Lucien being taken away by Tamlyn’s evil father, Coyle. Before Silvermay can think about rescuing Lucien from his captors, she must return to her home village to save the life of her friend, Ryall. Rescuing Lucien won’t be easy and Silvermay watches anxiously as Tamlyn fights the demons of his Wyrdborn nature. Will they be too late to rescue Lucien before Coyle turns him into an evil monster?
