First of all, let me apologise for not blogging recently. I’ve been crazy busy with new projects and there wasn’t a whole lot of new stuff to tell you about Faerie Path and Warrior Princess/Destiny’s Path.
As most of you will already know, the American Publishers decided they did not want to publish the 4th Warrior Princess book. The series was bought by a British publisher, and they decided to publish all four books - under the new series title of Destiny’s Path. The 4th book is called Destiny’s Path: Caradoc of the North Wind, and it was released in the UK and Canada and Australia and New Zealand etc on the 5th April 2012. I’m really pleased about this, as you can imagine, because at one point I thought this book might never see the light of day.
I’ve been told my copies of the new book are in the mail, so it’s time for me to set up the competition to allow a few of you to win signed copies. I’ve been getting regular mails about this for a while now, so I know people are eager to get their hands on a copy. With that in mind, I’m going to work the competition so that the winners will need to have read the first three books quite carefully.
As always with my competitions, there is no specific closing date, and I will send copies to winners in the order that the correct answers arrive with me - so, first come, first served, and I’ll blog to let you know when all my spare copies are gone.
Also, as before, don’t respond in the comments section of this blog - go to the contact page and write to me from there. Any answers given as comments will be ignored. So, write to me with your answers and I will get straight back to you to let you know if you’ve won. Then I’ll be asking for your home address. If you are under 14 years of age, you should really ask your parents or guardians before giving out your home address, although once I have sent the book, I will not be keeping the information.
So, here are the questions I’d like you to answer.
1. When Branwen arrives at Doeth Palas in book 1, she is given two servant women to help her get ready for the welcoming feast. (Chapter 13). What are the names of these two servants?
2. What is the full name of Iwan’s father?
3. When Branwen and Blodwedd enter Chester in disguise in Chapter 15 of The Emerald Flame/Merion of the Stones, they encounter a fishmonger. Name the six fish he tells them he sells.
There you are - as I told you, first come first served!
Good luck.

Hi Mr. Jones,
I entered the contest, but you never emailed me about my contact info. Did you get my entry?
if you’re Sarah Oliver, you’re fine! If you’re a different Sarah, I’ll check it out.
Wow! A whole surge of comments i can’t wait to receive the book! The anticipation is killing me congrats to all you people who won the book! Mr Jones, will you receive the copies soon? I bet a whole lot of us here are dying for it to arrive!
I entered a couple days ago, and I still haven’t heard anything from you. Did my entry decide to not go through?
Hi, sent my answers in yesterday hope you got them this is so cool!
AFJ. Emily - the fact is I should already have the books! The publishers are looking into what has gone wrong this time. Typical, isn’t it? Fingers crossed - any day now!
AFJ. Brittany - one of your answers was wrong. You can always try again.
AFJ. Ingrid - I can’t find a response from you. Could you try again, please? One or two entries have obviously gone astray - anyone who has not heard from me should get in touch.
okay i just sent it again hope I still win a book so many people.
AFJ. Ingrid - got it this time!
Hi Mr Jones!
So has the publisher found the reasons why you have not received the book yet?
AFJ. Emily - yes, I just got a mail from them. Apparently the delivery people couldn’t get a reply at my house! (Or so they say!!!) This is silly as I’m almost always in during the day. I’ve asked them to confirm they have the correct address - we shall see - but the books should arrive very soon now.
Haha, yes that is pretty silly. Hope this time the delivery people will get it right
