If you've been waiting for your next humorous fantasy audiobook, this is your sign to grab your copy of The Rose Thief! Available everywhere: books2read.com/u/mBNNEN

I think The Rose Thief is full of little humorous snippets that just have you quietly sniggering now and then as you read/listen. It was never meant to be fully laugh-out-loud, more of a indulgent grin throughout vibe. The Rose Thief audiobook books2read.com/u/mBNNEN

When I was recording The Rose Thief, I just could not pronounce "cavlacade" My sound guy heard me say every which way you could under the sun and I still didn't get it right lol. He had to spell it out phonetically for me in the end. Is there a word you struggle to pronounce?

I just want to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has taken the time to review one of my books. I don't think you realise how amazing it is for authors to get reviews from people we don't know. It means you saw our book and thought - yeah, alright then, I'll give this a go. You're amazing ⭐
