With the fortress contained, Boh and his friends are led by a powerful witch called Gabija to free her nephew, Galahad, a wraith-maker with special needs that is being prepared to be sacrificed, from the wraith-maker’s bastion. They gain entrance to the fortress through a weak point in the defences with the aid of a human native and try to move as stealthy as they can to rescue Galahad, finding a large group of fauns that had been hiding within the fortress, undetected by the wraith-makers. When all other means of escape are cut off, Boh and his group find themselves fighting to escape the wraith-makers.
As the third child of seven, she learned to amuse with words from a very young age. Raised with the newspaper industry around her, she found herself drawn to the word; writing her own brief stories and thoughts down and sharing them with her young friends.
She ran a successful business with her husband, Barry Johns, for several years, however, at the gradual loss of her eyesight, she eventually decided to go back to her true passion of writing. She has had several articles published and her first book, “Magic and Mayhem: Tree of Knowledge� was published in 2006.
She now lives in South-East Queensland with her husband, six children and granddaughter. After a short break from the industry, she returned once more to her field of writing, she was pleased at the release of her books in the Magic and Mayhem series, “Tree of Knowledge� in January, 2016 (a re-release, re-edited of the original), followed by “The Winning Game�, "Blight in the Ocean" and "Demons and Dangers", with further books to be released in the future.
Her middle reader "The Lives and Karma of Jeremiah Blum and how he met his match," was released in 1 August by Hawkwood Books, UK.
Writing as Gillian B Duce Madell, "Outer Space," was released on the 14th February, 2023 by Hard Works and Books.
Gillian still writes articles and other works under an anonymous name which she carefully guards the actual name of in order to keep her working identities separate from one another.
Series surprises me. I like that. Most books now are predictable. The MM books are not predictable which is good change and it shocks me how much is included in it. Even beings with disabilities are not shied away from, and sometimes the heroes; special needs too. Every culture has a representative in the legends and myths included and it has a good moral basis to the story.
