Summer Reading from Mr Dukes: Worm Winds of Zanzibar
08 July 2022
Former Head of Art Martin Dukes is keeping very busy in his retirement and has used his new found spare time to complete the second novel in his series the Alex Trueman Chronicles, due to be published on July 21st.
The book picks up on Alex Trueman’s adventures in "Caught in a Moment," the first volume in this trilogy and have brought him to the attention of dark powers amongst the angels. Malcolm, Alex's protector in the angelic realm of Elysium, snatches Alex and his friends away, just in time to prevent him from falling into the clutches of those whose intentions are of the most sinister kind.
In this second volume, Alex finds himself stranded in a different world, a world that resembles nineteenth century East Africa but one that is threatened by a terrible fate. Alex has been told that he has a special power, a power that makes him unique. Caught between the perils of crazed despots and the servants of malevolent angels, menaced by the threat of a cataclysmic natural disaster, Alex must discover the nature of his power before it is too late.
The book is likely to make a good summer read for older girls and is available from Amazon in paperback and Kindle edition.
