PENfro Book Festival 2014 is just over a week away!

This year the PENfro Book Festival is better then ever. We start on Friday 12th in the evening with a special screening of 'La Casa di Dio' - the story of a little Catholic church in Wales, built in a plasterboard prefab, by Italian POW's during World War II. The director - Owain Llŷr - will be there for a Q&A after too.

On Saturday we'll have workshops for writers all day - book now for Nina Milton's 2 hour workshop on character and plot development - and then in the evening, there's a very special event - when we have the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, together with the Chaired and Crowned Bard, Ceri Wyn Jones, reading their poetry!

Sunday is Festival Day itself with free entry to the Book Fair all day and a here's a great line up of authors and events at PENfro this year, including three children's events. Check the website now for details and to buy tickets. For just £10 you can see all the events you want at PENfro Book Festival Sunday. That's a huge saving when the price of each individual event is usually £4.50!

Nina Milton has created a unique fictional world in her Shaman Mystery Series, featuring Sabbie Dare as a young shaman. With Beneath the Tor she passed the ultimate test of a writer, that of causing me to put off useful jobs which I really should have been doing, in order to see what happens next. She has become a mistress of plot-weaving, and above all, she pulls off the trick of setting the totally fantastic amid the totally everyday and making the two fit together with pace and excitement.

ANOTHER GREAT REVIEW FOR IN THE MOORS

Another great review online for In the Moors, the first Shaman Mystery by Nina Milton.

Sabbie Dare, the zany, feisty heroine of Nina Milton’s In The Moors, is a city girl of mixed race and lost parentage; as a child she went into the care system and by the time she was twelve was a little fighting machine.

When we meet her, she’s 28 and clear about her path in life; she’s an eco-friendly pagan living in Somerset where she works as a therapeutic shaman. Her clients come to her for last-resort help, and such is Cliff Houghton...

Sky Light Rain is a great blogsite for readers and writers alike, with writing tips, reviews and general literary based chat and information. I'm making it one of my must-visit sites.

What do Pagan Readers think of the Shaman Mysteries?

In The Moors is the latest offering from Nina Milton, author and OBOD member, introducing the seemingly-unlikely detective Sabbie Dare. Sabbie, like all the best heroes of the crime thriller genre, is impulsive, courageous, a bit odd, and less than lucky in love. Sabbie is a shamanic counsellor, and when not tending to her chickens or chasing bargains at car boot sales, spend her days helping her clients. It is one such encounter that plunges Sabbie into a dark world of murder and horror past and present.For me, this holds its head up with the best of its genre and so comes highly recommended – and for those of you, like me, who are already hooked, the next Sabbie Dare novel is already in the pipeline. Can’t wait!

Review in Touchstone (magazine of OBOD-Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids)

A real page-turner, In the Moors cost me several hours of sleep because it was so un-put-downable! An engaging heroine, a landscape at once so real and so menacing, and an intriguing mystery had me enthralled into the wee hours! Mara Freeman

I could not put down Unraveled Visions by Nina Milton. I congratulate her on a real page turner. I loved the sinister Fergus Quigg’s story of the Blarney Stone; I’ll look forward now, to reports that American Tourists will attempt to sanitize it with wetwipes before leaning in for a kiss, which could be amusing to the locals! I held on to my belief in Fergus’ innocence until the last; no man who writes in a notebook with pen could possibly be all bad, could he? But as the concluding tensions burst, and the final secrets were revealed, Unraveled Visions kept me up long past my bedtime (as promised by Mara Freeman), especially when Sabbie’s shamanic experiences with snakes became the great finishing twist. Nina Milton makes the unbelievable credible and persuasive. Ana Adnan
