One of Cosmo Girl's Trailblazers of 2002 - meet Catherine Webb - 14 when she wrote her first book!
In her own words:
Job: School. This is an unhappy profession riddled with tests, homework and occasional bouts of merriment if we get to make something explosive in science lessons. There are some subjects I enjoy and some I loathe with an undying passion, I won't say which is which until I am 18 and any of my teachers who might happen to read this need no longer care whether it is their particular subject that ought to be buried in a swamp under a pile of elephant dung.
  
When you dream you travel to the kingdoms of the void. But the kingdoms are becoming unbalanced. Somehow it falls on Laenan Kite - a powerful mage - to sort it out. But at what cost?
Laenan Kite returns in a tale of intrigue and menace. Haven is in deadly trouble and the newly crowned queen Lisana offers Laenan the job of protecting them all.
First in a new series featuring Sam Linnfer, part-time librarian, all-time enigma. His family's a big issue - they're at war again - and that's bad, seeing as he's the bastard son of Time and Magic... Bearer of the Light... otherwise known as Lucifer - or Satan. Be very grateful his reputation's based on bad press and not reality.
The Waywalkers are going to war. Seth and his allies are determined to free Cronus and bring about the end of our world. It is, therefore, time for Sam - Lucius, Sebastian - Lucifer - to release the Light - the task for which he was created by Time. Sam finds unexpected allies - and discovers it is difficult to know who you can trust.
Horatio Lyle scientist and reluctant detective is sent on a mission by the government. He is accompanied by Tess, a former pickpocket, and Thomas, a young gentleman.
There are some strange things going on in the city lately: strange comings and goings, bizarre murders, missing statues - not to mention the dome being blown clean off Saint Paul's Cathedral. Horatio Lyle, of course, is no stranger to strangeness. In fact, he finds the lure of the unknown quite invigorating. But having just survived the most frightening episode in his life, the last thing he wants is that pompous Lord Lincoln sticking his nose in again and demanding that he take on another case the police are too thick to solve. |
