My trilogy is now out in paperback. The three books are "The Dark Ground", "The Black Room" and "The Nightmare Game". Together, they're called "The Lost". Watch out for them.

"Wolf" - which won the Carnegie Medal for the best children's book of the year - is being reissued by Oxford University Press with a stunning new cover.

Don't forget to check out the Demon Headmaster website too, for all the latest details about the villainous headmaster.

I appear as a character in a book myself as well! Want to know more? Then you'll need to read Simone's Website by Helena Pielichaty. Or, if you want to know now, you could try visiting the website itself.

If you saw the TV series of 'The Demon Headmaster' (or even if you didn't see it) you might like to know that Samuel French Ltd have published a Demon Headmaster musical. (ISBN 0-573-08116-6). It has words by Paul James, lyrics by Iain Halstead and Paul James, and music by Eric Angus and Cathy Shostak and it was performed in London and on tour in 1998 and 1999, starring Terrence Hardiman as the Headmaster. If you didn't see it, you missed a treat, but maybe there'll be a production on near you soon.
