“I do not believe the fact you are here is an accident. There are prophecies that circulate among the Saragians, and indeed quietly throughout Ald, which speak of one who will find the flame to light the darkness”.
Sarah of Sheil travels to the mysterious training temple of Ak-Tar, only to discover the one time great school of magic has declined. Initially despondent, she has a vision through an ancient magical staff of how the Ak-Tar could be again. After learning of a growing threat in the east, Sarah and her friends go on a quest to find the Trixus key; something that the growing powers of evil would destroy worlds to obtain.
Born in Dorchester, Dorset in 1975. Guy first studied music at Dartington College of Arts, and later trained as a teacher. He also worked and still works, as a jazz pianist having recorded two albums. He began writing about Ald in January 07 and hasn’t stopped since. The Trixus Key is the first book in the Questar series.
"It was a strange
creature, but somehow not threatening, although Sarah wasn’t sure if she would
have reached the same conclusion had she been travelling alone.
It began to speak
to Gavin in a series of clicks and creaking sounds. Sarah had experienced many
strange events that day which she could not explain, and part of her was
insisting she mind her own business and stay where she was. But she couldn’t
shake the feeling that this creature had sought them out, and besides she
didn’t want to hide behind Gavin like a frightened little girl.
She mustered the
courage and strode around Gavin with Alphonsius at her side to face the
creature. She was excited and thrilled as it nodded in her direction, whether
in acknowledgement for her bravery or in greeting she couldn’t tell."
