"Why me?" Mikey thought to himself. Why was he having these strange dreams? After spending months suffering from bizarre nightmares about whimstricks, grubblings and other strange creatures, ten-year-old Mikey has finally had enough. But finding out the truth is more dangerous than Mikey could possibly have imagined, and he soon finds himself trapped in the magical realm of Whimsburrow.
Desperate to get back home, while trying to avoid the Thorne King and the phantoms of Demerium, he discovers secrets that should never be revealed. Once you've entered Whimsburrow, there's no going back...

Festival of the Ghost
Launch of Festival of the Ghost with Joao Morais. Interviewed by Joshua Jones.

Book Space Cardiff, CF24 4NL
A winner in the new Welsh writing awards, Festival of the Ghost is set in a diverse, contemporary Cardiff. A pacey, high-concept time-warp crime novella exploring themes of violence, ritual and alternative realities, while it seeks to honour the victims of serial killers and challenge the way that some have become part of the tourism industry.
‘Courageous, daring, humorous and deeply human.’ Joshua Jones
‘Compelling… humorous and tightly plotted, with a superb sense of urban space’ Gwen Davies
