Fan Art, Ranger's Apprentice

No pictures in your book? Why not Google fan art. It never fails to amaze me how many people have created artwork about their favourite books and characters. As I am currently re-reading Ranger's Apprentice series by John Flanagan, and I took a moment to look up fan art. Every artist has a different take on each character in the series. OK, the occasional one is awful but I like to think the artist is trying hard and will improve. As for the majority, some are cute, some are funny and some are just beautiful.  This one is particularly beautiful.

For kids fantasy, the Artemis Fowl series is great fun. The life changing journey of a wicked genius kid who manages to contact (and wreak havoc in) the fairy world.

I'm hoping to release Book 1 - The Shadow Village this year.

Mandalorian

Finished re-watching Mandalorian. It was just as good the second time through. I can't believe how many things I picked up that I missed the first time through! I love to re-read books too, and often notice the same thing.  Thank you to the international person who put the latest 5 star rating on my newest book/series release. If you like fantasy adventure, you might enjoy the Daoine Maithe series of 4 books. It's a great read, fast paced with captivating characters with interesting abilities. The whole series is a page turner. Here is the link:     Great Books on Amazon    They are at bargain prices!
