Nathan Chattaway asked H.M. Clarke:

This is not a question, just a private (good) comment. I was intrigued by the book reviews for your novel "the Kalarthri" as we have 6 children who love reading and being read to. LOTR and The Hobbit are firm favourites. I grew up in Pt Augusta, opposite the ETSA swimming pool, at 24 Hannagan St. We now live in the Adelaide Hills. Anyway, I'm going to buy a copy to read with the kids :) Cheers, Joy

H.M. Clarke Nice to see someone else from Port Augusta! I grew up on Chinnery Street (west side), though my Nan lived around the corner from the ESTA pools. I was living in Adelaide until I moved to the USA. I miss being able to drive into the Adelaide Hills though. I love JRR Tolkein and C.S. Lewis.

The idea of the Kalarthri is actually based off of the Mamluks of Egypt, so if you know a little about their history, you will have a good idea in which direction this series is heading.

Cheers -Hayley :)
