It’s 2016! Can you believe that? I’ve been doing this for five years.

Back in November 2013, my publisher emailed me to ask if I had any extra content they might be able to use at the back of a special edition paperback for Morrisons supermarket.

Kerry Wilkinson answered Charlie-Grace's question: Hello Kerry Wilkinson, My name is Charlie. My mum recently read Reckoning and absolutely loved it. I'd love to get her the next books in the series for her birthday, but I can't find them anywhere. I was wondering if you could let me know where I can purchase them? Thank you for your time. Charlie Hi, Charlie. Renegade and Resurgence are both out-of-print physically - and their digital rights expired. The only place you might find a copy is second-hand, on something like eBay. Sorry I don't have a better reply.

Kerry Wilkinson answered Diana Jonkman's question: Is "The Tapes" coming out in Spanish soon? Hi Diana. It won’t be out in Spanish anytime soon as no translation rights have been sold. Thanks for asking though.
