The recommended minimum reading age for Book 6 is 14 years. Book 6 begins on the day that Book 5 ends, with Ado Aragon waiting for news of the encounter between criminal arch-wizard Enzo Potenza, head of the all-powerful Consortium and the 'Awesome Foursome' - four children with special powers fighting for a return to democracy and the rule of law in the United Kingdom's witch-and-wizard world. Ado doesn't know about the other four in what is actually 'The Eight Team'. Their guardian angels are visible only to the four children and to the Gods and fairies from whom their magic flows. Carman, Goddess of the Damned, is breeding hordes of genetically modified predators to accompany her legions of mass murderers and despicable tyrants accumulated since the dawn of human time to wage war against the virtuous. It is a war that will not wait much longer. The Eight Team isn't ready yet, but it does have powerful allies: Gods, Giants, the Sinn Fein Sidhe, aliens on the far side of the moon, King Arthur and his Army of the Slain in Avalon, and Myrddin himself, of course. Gordon, Grace, Nick and Miranda vow to find out what has happened to 'the disappeared' - the witches and wizards snatched by Consortium soldiers over the last twelve years and taken into slavery in other parts of the country far away from home. Consortium regional bosses decide to gain leverage over the four children by kidnapping their mothers. Gordon realises the only way to get the Consortium to take them seriously is to play by the gangsters' own rules... A great deal happens between 24th August and 9th September 2011. Hold on to your hats - it's a roller-coaster ride!

Once upon a time -a long time ago - I was born in Bootle (Liverpool 20). There was a war on, but I ignored it and got on with the business of growing up. Later, I wanted to follow in the footsteps of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis but instead was plunged into the maelstrom of inner city education. In the 1970's, I wrote some stories for children to see if I could, and Penguin published them. I thought I would write something really good when I retired from teaching. After fourteen years of headship in Hackney I came back up north in 1993 and met my wife Amy. We looked after my increasingly ill parents full-time until they didn't need us to do it anymore, by which time the first of our two daughters (they were 16 and 14 when I first met them) was ready to go off to University and on to the first rung of the housing ladder. We did the sums and I went back to teaching... In 2008 Amy and I set off for a life by the western shores of the Caribbean. It was only after I survived a murder attempt by three local thugs in November 2010 (skull crushed in two places, seventeen stitches in head wounds) that I realised how easy it is to die without accomplishing a cherished ambition. So we came back to the UK and I set to work on "Myrddin's Heir": the epic story I will leave behind. The first four books were published in 2013. Book 5 was published in April 2015 and Book 6 in June 2016. How many more books will there be in the series? That depends - among other things - on how long I live. This is a story for bright children from 10-110 years of age. It's longer than The L of the R, longer even than HP &... To finish it I need to live another 12 years. I'd like to finish it, because I know how it ends.
