Behind the books
The Five Kingdoms series
Think James Bond meets Lord of the Rings exactly describes how I developed this series: I wanted to allow a Bondesque character to develop beyond a shallow but highly efficient spy, and the freedom of a fantasy setting enabled this beautifully.
The Caledonian Sprite series
Described as an 'Eco-urban fantasy', the concept for this series was born from a desire to highlight environmental issues in a new way - using a character who IS a force of nature, in this case, a water elemental. It delights me to set it in the glorious Scottish Highlands, around the area where I am fortunate to live.
