Hi Michelle.

We love your work! The Wolf Brother series remains one of my sons' favourites works of literature.
For his recent 15th birthday I made him some book art to celebrate the series. I have included a picture for you.

I have taken a video of the book also but can't upload it – If you would like it I can send it on to you.

Thank you for sharing your writing with us.

Michelle Replies…

Dear Kay, it’s brilliant that your boys like the series – and thank you so much for sharing that stunning picture!  I’d never heard of the term “book art” before, but I love it; and your wolf is really something special.  The boys are lucky to have such a talented mother.  As for sending the video, I’m afraid my tech skills are very limited (Stone Age, you see…) but I’ll have a word with my agent, in case he can work something out.  In the meantime – thanks again.  With very best wishes to you all, Michelle

An experience like no other. From a writer like no other...

Successfully published as an adult author, the Chronicles of Ancient Darkness (“Wolf Brother”) were her first books for younger readers, followed by her brilliant 5-part series set in the bronze age, Gods and Warriors. On the adult side, her first ghost story, Dark Matter, was a UK bestseller and won massive praise from reviewers and readers alike, as did her second ghost story, Thin Air.
