They were originally here for all to read, but now they have an Official Website and there’s also Jemima’s blog. They are published as Ebooks on Smashwords and in many stores worldwide including Amazon, the Apple iBookstore, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and more.

The Princelings of the East Series

Book1: The Princelings of the East

The Princelings solve the puzzle of the Great Energy Drain

When the King’s Birthday feast is ruined by an unnatural power drain, our Princeling heroes leave their scientific experiments to set out in search of answers. They encounter the enigmatic businessman Hugo, the impressive Prince of Buckmore, the wise Lady Nimrod, the irrepressible barkeep Victor, but find themselves threatened by those with vested interests. The scene shifts from a rural, feudal setting to the towers and heights of the curious Isle of Hattan, but where, or when, are they? Time is of the essence in solving this puzzle, and our heroes must keep their wits sharp and their heads clear if they are to survive.

Suitable for ages 8 and over, The Princelings of the East is a fantasy adventure with the charm of the Wind in the Willows in a world reminiscent of Anne MacCaffrey’s Pern.

Victor

I’m in all of the books. I’m the only one of us in all of them. I think. I dont know if I’m in the sixth one or not. Mummy hasnt written any of that yet. Just the basic outline. I know Hector and Humphrey are in that one. Hector’s the trouble-maker 🙂 Oops, have I given the plot away?

  In fact that book became number 5, and Victor isn’t in that one – but he is in both book 6 (which he narrates) and book 7 as a bystander. Hector ended up not being in Book 6 at all. He may appear in number 9 or 10.
  There are sets of Principal Characters for each of the books on the Princelings website
