Produktbeschreibung
Princelings Dylan and Dougall of Castle Haunn find a map inside a bottle. When they follow its clues to rescue Prince Kevin, exiled by his wicked uncle to prevent him taking his throne, Dylan sees a chance for an adventure. The only trouble is, how on earth can they travel the length of the lands and displace the new owner of Kevin's castle, the dastardly Lord Smallweed? Book 8 of the Princelings of the East series shows that bandits and pirates have their uses, and maybe society is changing too fast for those in charge to keep up. Lovers of the series will probably rate this the best yet. New readers could jump in here without too much difficulty, although Kevin first appears in book 5 - another good place to start. Suitable for good readers aged 10 and upwards.
Autorenporträt
Jemima Pett has been living in a world of her own for many years. Writing stories since she was eight, drawing maps of fantasy islands with train systems and timetables at ten. Unfortunately no-one wanted a fantasy island designer, so she tried a few careers, getting great experiences in business, environmental research and social work. She finally got back to building her own worlds, and wrote about them. Her business background enabled her to become an independent author, responsible for her own publications.

Her first series, the Princelings of the East, mystery adventures for advanced readers set in a world of tunnels and castles entirely populated by guinea pigs, is now complete. The tenth and final book, Princelings Revolution, came out in October 2020. Jemima does chapter illustrations for these. She has also edited two volumes of Christmas stories for young readers, the BookElves Anthologies, and her father's memoirs White Water Landings, about the Imperial Airways flying boat service in Africa. She has compiled four collections of flash fiction tales, publishing in the first half of 2021. She is now writing the third in her science fiction series set in the Viridian System, in which the aliens include sentient trees.

Jemima lived in a village in Norfolk with her guinea pigs, the first of whom, Fred, George, Victor and Hugo, provided the inspiration for her first stories, The Princelings of the East. She is now living in Hampshire, writing science fiction for grown-ups, hatching plans for a new series, and writing more short stories for anthologies.
