Ged Maybury

Into the Heart of Varste (Stonewind Sky, #2) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Now recovered from his first frightful adventure, and regarded as a hero, Rodney wins a lucrative new commission: to start an overnight mail service between Vicaria and Havenscliff (the 'Heart of Varste') using his tiny British-powered airship. But it's not long before things go wrong, of course, and it's all to do with That Damned Firetail!

Although he survives the first day, his sojourn in fabulous Haven Towers is beset with tension and danger. Should he persevere, or should he get the hell out of there before Murderous Major Mennase returns from the dead? To compound his crisis he goes and falls in love with Karla Cluely: girl-genius in her own right and daughter of the local Mad Scientist Hubert Von Heulenstein, who has his own special way of wrecking Rod's plans.

Meanwhile, all sorts of secret skullduggery transpires in the shadows ...

Autorenporträt

Ged Maybury is an Australasian author of children's and YA novelist, with 14 books conventionally published (not counting this series) and a lot more in the pipeline.

Finalist - NZ Children's Book Awards 1994: "The Triggerstone"

Finalist - NZ Children's Book Awards 2001: "Crab Apples"

He began 1994 in his favourite genre: Science Fiction, later adding comedy and slice-of-life, and finally returned to his sci-fi roots with Steampunk.

This series is aimed at young adults and anyone else who likes an engaging adventure, but as far as any full-on "adult" content goes: well that's just not his thing. (Okay - there's a bit of it.)

He was born in Christchurch, New Zealand, and grew up in Dunedin; dux of his school; blah-blah-blah … Went into architecture, ended up in the performing arts and has been writing plays, poetry and books ever since. He also has earned some notoriety as a Cosplayer and Costumer, Steampunk Sculptor, Performance Poet and Story-teller. Occasionally he writes plays and films. Even more occasionally they get produced.

WORLD-FIRST: Maybury lays claim to the world's first custom-written theme-song to a book.
