GLASS TOWN WARS
On writing Glass Town Wars…
I've always been fascinated by imaginary worlds. My starting point was: girl from the past meets boy from the future in a world that spilled from a box of toy soldiers. A world conjured by four remarkable children of seemingly limitless imagination and written into tiny books. But as they grow and change, the world that they have created bursts out of the confines of the postage stamp pages. Epic exploration and daring adventure morph into darker themes of war, romance and revolution fed by powerful emotions: love and loyalty, jealousy, possession and hatred. Anyone caught up in this vortex risks being destroyed.
“A gripping adventure… wonderful!”
“Excellent”
