Read The Children of The Raids

Perfect for fans of Harry Potter and Discworld, this all ages fantasy follows The Zadekai Twins desperate struggle against an evil superpower trying to tear them from their family, friends, and home.

They were never meant to stand out.

But destiny was always going to find them.

Kayden and Kyinda Zadekai are twins growing up in a medieval world not unlike our own, where life is simple—until it isn’t. When The Dominion Raids sweep through their home, everything begins to change. What starts as a desperate attempt to protect their family, friends and way of life quickly unravels into something far greater.

Because The Dominion is only part of the story.

Beyond their small port town lies a Crescentworld shaped by old secrets, global powers, and a destiny that started long before they were born. The twins want nothing to do with it, but curiosity and thirst for knowledge are hard things to ignore.

Across seven years, their journey will be filled with danger, discovery, humour, and heart. They will face secrets that refuse to stay buried, choices that will test the strength of their bond, and truths that will reshape everything they thought they knew.

In the end, their decisions will lead to a moment that will forever change the Crescentworld, The Great Upheaval.

What are people saying about them?

"Reading this book felt like being acquainted with old friends - all the fantasy books I absolutely devoured as a teenager. There is a comfortable familiarity in the classic storytelling elements but the book also offers ideas that are new and unique - I always wanted to read "just one more" chapter. Looking forward to the release of the next book - I want to know what happens!" - B.W. on Goodreads

"Can't wait for part 2 and 3 to be released! :)" - Tijl on Amazon.au

"This is a great read, a fast paced novel, with lots of witty banter and action packed too. The novel runs through the experiences of the Zadekai twins, both very different but very bonded, who are forced to navigate the uncertainty of foreboding leaders, The Dominion. This novel would suit tweens and teens however even adults will enjoy its smart prose. Totally recommend." - Sophstar on Amazon.au

"I love how easy it was to read and I fell in love with the characters! It's so well thought out and I felt lost in their world!" - G.G. on Goodreads

From the author

Hopefully this series will make you laugh and cry, puzzle and question and doubt, and swear at the characters (and probably me).

But hopefully feel a rewarding connection to lovable and hateable, silly and serious characters.

Set in a world that “–is a world and mirror of worlds” (– Terry Pratchett, my inspiration) The Zadekai Twins series will span The Crescentworld, introducing you to new characters, places, creatures, and ideas as the twins navigate puberty, family and friend drama, mysteries and dangers, and evil global regime The Dominion.

Did I mention magic?

Yeah, that too.

Every book is already carefully planned (so you won’t suddenly find the second-last book detouring into flying sports and girlfriends) and Year Two of their adventure is already being written.

As you read, I hope you’ll feel the heart I’ve poured into this story—the passion, the hard work, the thought and study, and yes, a touch of humour.

What you won’t get is another predictable formula, where every twist feels obvious. This is a classic hero’s journey— where the heroes don’t want to be heroes, and don’t want to go on any journey. I play with story tropes and clichés, dive into social dynamics and relationships, and sometimes things happen for no reason, like in life (sorry if that’s a spoiler 😉).

Most of all, I hope you like it. I hope it gives you some feels. I hope you connect with these characters I love so much, and that the twins’ tale resonates with you enough to leave you wanting more.

Big love.
