Description

Meet George - the youngest Universal Companion - and his best friend, Malvin, the rudest goblin on Earth. The world is spinning into environmental disaster and the Society for the Protection of Mythical Creatures has shaken off years of inaction and swung into action to defend it. George has just been put in charge of his first mission and sent to the island paradise of Zanzibar to hunt for disappearing water sprites. But how is he going to succeed with a changeable weather giant, a single-minded cyclops, a haughty phoenix, not to mention a certain grumpy goblin on his team?Yet George is to learn that the biggest enemy is the one you can't see until it is too late.

Author Biography:

My journey to becoming an author has been a roundabout one, taking in many other careers. I grew up on the edge of Epping Forest and was that dreamy kind of child who was always writing stories. After reading English at Cambridge, I decided to find out as much as I could about the wider world so joined the Foreign Office and served in Poland. My work as a diplomat took me from the high point of town twinning in the Tatra Mountains to the low of inspecting the bottom of a Silesian coal mine. On leaving Poland, I exchanged diplomacy for academia and took a doctorate in the literature of the English Romantic Period at Oxford. I then joined Oxfam as a lobbyist on conflict issues, campaigning at the UN and with governments to lessen the impact of conflict on civilians living in war zones - a cause about which I still feel very passionate. Married with three children, I now live in Oxford between two rivers, surrounded by gargoyles, beautiful sandstone buildings and ancient trees.
