Interview with an author- Laura Hart
Laura Hart
Author of: The Toy sorcerer (First book in the Ancient Knowledge Trilogy)
Firstly, congratulations on your recent success with Waterstones and your radio broadcast, which is reviewing The Toy Sorcerer live on the Lesley Dolphin Show – BBC Radio Suffolk at 2 – 2.30pm on 26th March.
Hi Jo, Thank you for inviting me to interview for your blog.
Tell us about The Toy Sorcerer
The Toy Sorcerer is the first of a trilogy entitled, The Ancient Knowledge. There were a number of factors that inspired the story. As a child I dreamed lucidly; I knew I was dreaming, but could not escape. I would simply run from realm to realm trying to find the Dream Gate. For me the Dream Realms were very real, and when I learned how to manipulate them I created some weird and wonderful dreamscapes.
Because I dreamed the way I did, my favourite stories were Alice In Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass. And it was probably these books that set me on the path to devotion to Fantasy and Science Fiction. The Toy Sorcerer is a tribute to its mentor, Lewis Carrol.
I’m also very Pagan in my personal theology, though it crosses over with theories that are more suited to science fiction. All science fact was science fiction first.

Trapped as a mortal in a dimension where human dreams become reality, Alice Towers endures a journey of unmerciful persecution and excruciating self-discovery. Guided by an extraordinary realm creature named Shammerwack, she must find Magog; a boy imprisoned for over three centuries who holds the key to her release.
Unaware that her incarceration heralds the dawn of the Final Prophecy; Armageddon, Alice is pursued by an ancient being that plagues humanity with relentless nightmares, until the world hovers on the brink of insanity and self-annihilation.
Alice’s only earthbound ally, Leona, is also an antediluvian soul who has lived and reincarnated as a human for thousands of years. As one of the Ancient Coven and practitioner of the old knowledge, Leona summons shadows to protect Alice’s slumbering body and Magog’s timeworn effigy. But Leona’s maleficent sister, Lillian, another of the ancients, is equally as determined to capture Alice; the vessel by which the Demon Lord of the Realms intends to escape the confines of his nebulous world.
A bloody battle ensues on Earth as Lillian’s underworld demons and Leona’s defensive forces tear lives apart, whilst an increasingly insane world creeps inexorably closer to the Final Prophecy.
