Argravia
A fantasy novel about a lonely teenage girl called Charlie who falls through a library into another world torn apart by segregation and riven with social strife. Between being bossed around by a rather loud origami cat and befriending Zoric, a boy whose voice has been stolen, Charlie somehow finds herself enmeshed in the fight to rebuild Argravia’s shattered society.
Sola
A fantasy novel about a young woman called Sola, who embarks upon a journey of vengeance and bloodshed after the brutal slaughter of her family. Harnessing the terrible power of her strange ‘dragon-touched’ traits, Sola becomes someone who faces an impossible choice: either conquer her past or be consumed by it.
Edgeways
Unable to face Christmas with her distant and dismissive parents following the loss of her brother, Zita walks into the night without a plan or a place in mind – and finds herself chased through Brisbane’s suburbs by a pack of wolves. Only when she manages to escape does she discover that she has left behind everything she has ever known. Caught in the unpredictable, in-between world of Edgeways, Zita must decide who she is, what she stands for, and what truly holds her heart if she ever wants to return home.
