Edward Johns

About

Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex, Englandis the birth place of new writer Edward Johns, currently working as part of theflight crew with an Airline based in Northern Ireland.

Having long-held ambitions to become a writer, for manyyears Mr. Johns was unable to come up with the right type of ideas for hisnovels, but in 2006 inspiration finally came to him and he began writing whatwas intended to be the first book of a Trilogy entitled “Race for FlugalFarm”.   It was a story based around theEquestrian scene and, whilst writing this, for some obscure reason the idea foranother novel came into his head and so he transferred his attentions to whathas now become his debut novel “Murdo”. His writing favours the pre to earlyteen market and, set against a backdrop of kidnapping, this first publicationcentres around the heart-warming bond formed between a young girl and a ratheramazing dog.

 

 

I addition to his passion for writing the Author tells usthat he likes nothing more than to spend his spare time outdoors on the GolfCourse.  He takes a keen interest in avariety of other sports, and in addition enjoys travelling (as indicated by hischoice of career), together with live theatre, movies and cuisine.

Having now had his first book published the Author has currentlyreverted back to his original manuscript, and we look forward to seeing thefirst of his Trilogy come out in the not too distant future.

Description

<p><span><span>Shakespeare's Witches tell Banquo, &quot;Thou Shalt 'Get Kings Though Thou Be None&quot;. Though Banquo is murdered, his son Fleance gets away. What happened to Fleance? What Kings? As Shakespeare's audience apparently knew, Banquo was the ancestor of the royal Stewart line. But the road to kingship had a most inauspicious beginning, and we follow Fleance into exile and death, bestowing the Witches' prophecy on his illegitimate son Walter. Born in Wales and raised in disgrace, Walter's efforts to understand Banquo's murder and honor his lineage take him on a long and treacherous journey through England and France before facing his destiny in Scotland.</span></span></p>

Story Behind The Book

The Race for Flugal Farm was written for my daughter who always wanted to read an adventure story where the main characters were horses.
