There are only three things you need to know about Kirsty Wilson. One, she is thirteen years old. Two, she was born under the sign of Cancer. Third, and most seriously of all, Kirsty is the most powerful witch in the world.You've probably heard others make such claims before. They may have even been right in their own mind.But for Kirsty, she really might have to make good on her claim. She may have to back it up for real. Because if anyone tried to hurt Kirsty and her friends, a witch's powers - a REAL witch's powers would come in handy, wouldn't they?.....Recommended reading age: 9 and upwards.***The story features Kirsty, a major character from the official book one in the series The Halloweeners, but is not a direct sequel. That book is Halloweeners 2 (released October 2017)..The Halloweeners 3 will conclude the series. Visit John Hennessy Books for release date details.

Four children are all dressed up and ready for Halloween. There's Kirsty, the witch. Craig the vampire. Then there's Nula, the ghost, and Toby, who's co-ordinating things whilst dressed as a zombie. They couldn't just be a ragtag bunch of stereotypes though, so Toby christened them the Halloweeners. Craig was new to it, though the others had celebrated Halloween before, many times before. Most of the people in the street knew the children and were happy to take their part in trick or treating. One particular house owner isn't so friendly, though it's fair to say the occupant has been expecting them, and intends to offer the group a special kind of welcome. He's been expecting them to knock on the door. He's been planning their visit for a while. In fact, he's been waiting for this all year....Interview with the AuthorQ - So, what makes the Halloweeners series special?A - It's a mix of things, really. When I set out to write these books, I wanted to create something that mirrored exactly the kind of books I like to read. My top picks are usually children's spine chilling scary novels, any of the thousands of thrillers and mysteries best sellers, and, of course, books featuring characters you can identify with. Basically, anything containing characters with a sharp attitude and written in a fast-paced style gets my vote.The Halloweeners (and subsequent books in the series that will be released around the holiday time) are a great mix of these genres. You'll find the series focuses on the mystery and thriller / children's Halloween genre overall, with a couple of light to medium horror elements thrown in for good measure, themes of teenage bullying, teenage romance and a serial killer novel or two to keep things interesting! 2017 will see book two in the series released, so keep watch on my Amazon author page for updates!Overall, the Halloweeners series is designed to keep you turning the pages - and I've made sure there's never a dull moment.Q - So, why should readers give these books a try?A - Because the Halloweeners series is a fast, fun, thrill-ride that takes no prisoners! Ultimately, readers who enjoy lightning-fast pacing with a plot that twists and turns all the way to the end will get a huge kick out of this series.Q - Anything else for us hungry readers?A - Sure. I've put together a few bundles if people want to save a little moolah and grab all the books in one swoop.

John Hennessy grew up with animals as his constant companions. Each time he faced the death of a cherished pet, along with the gut wrenching pain and guilt trips came the same questions, to which there were no obvious answers. Then, mysterious things began to happen that he could not explain, almost pushing him to question his own mind at times. This led him on an incredible journey to uncover the truth about what it is to learn, to love, to live, and to leave a legacy, for ourselves and those around us.Told in a heartwarming, revealing, personal but also uncompromising view that one could only expect from a writer of horror stories, the author steps out of his comfort zone to deliver a book that is more than a memoir of a cat who is sorely missed - it is a discovery of the self, and may challenge everything you think you know about the after-life.The author leaves it up to the reader to decide for themselves what really happened, but life and death is a personal journey for each and every one of us and accounts vary from person to person. Those who have passed over never come back to tell us what it is like, and how we should shape our remaining days accordingly.Coco: Joy of After-Life - A Journey Beyond Death and into the Heavens does not deliberately seek to provide explicit comfort and reassurance to anyone who has ever cherished and lost a pet, though readers can take some comfort from it of course. Instead, it sets out to answer some questions of anyone who has ever wondered how these creatures and ourselves fit into the larger scheme of things, both here on the Earth and beyond.

Romilly Winter is no ordinary heroine, just a reluctant one. She has a gift. She can see the future. But can she see far enough? The world in which she lives is under attack - the dead are rising, and evil follows her at every turn. Will she be able to save herself - and the world?" From the Diary of Romilly Winter, October 14th. "I've had two years to prepare for this. In that time, I have never told a soul. Of course, my Nan knew. She'd bequeathed me the mirror, after all. Now, maybe tonight, tomorrow, in a few days, the event that I don't want to happen with all my heart, will come to pass. I'm not ready. I know I'm not ready, and yet, it will happen nonetheless. Nan had this thing in her possession for nearly seventy years. She had told me I simply had to be at Rosewinter, prior to my sixteenth birthday no matter what objections my parents raised. She said I was 'special', and was the only one equipped to deal with what was coming. The problem is, I don't feel special, I just feel...different, and in all probability, that isn't going to be good enough. In just two days time, I will be sixteen years old, and if anything my Nan said is remotely true, I will be lucky to survive that long...."
