An accomplished healer of both cats and humans, Nadine finds herself whiskers to fangs with a demon while making what should have been a routine house call. Defeated, the demon soars away, but not before warning her that the world is about to be ripped from existence. Nadine casts the idea aside as the rantings of evil until she returns to her temple home to discover it in flames and her mentor vanished. When a visiting monk named Eli says her friend was taken by a religious extremist group looking for a book that can erase existence Nadine realizes she must take the demon's warning seriously and go after them. Despite her misgivings about Eli, she takes him with her on what promises to be a fur-raising adventure. Can Nadine keep the book from falling into the wrong hands and save her friend or will she doom all of creation to certain annihilation? Interview with the Author Q - So, what makes the Master Cat series special? A - As one reviewer said, it's Harry Potter with Cats. I've brought three of my favorite things into this series: fantastic magic, head-strong felines and a Christian worldview. In the world of the Malkins (an archaic word meaning cat) cats and humans partner up to do magic. The magic, in and of itself, is nothing more than a tool, but like any tool, it can be used for good or evil. The heroes in these tales fight to bring the bad guys to justice while not losing themselves in a world where the ends justify the means. Q - What order should I read the books in? A - While you can read them in any order without getting completely lost, I suggest the following order for the best story-telling experience: - Apprentice Cat - Secrets of the Malkin - Journeyman Cat - Huntress of the Malkin - Master Cat - Clash of the Malkin (coming soon) Q - So, why should readers give these books a try? A - If you enjoy books with talking animals, especially cats, like in Erin Hunter's Warrior series or Shirley Murphy-Rousseau's Joe Grey Mysteries, you'll feel right at home in the Malkin world. If you enjoyed the magic and mystery in Harry Potter, you'll find a similar experience with this series. These books are also a good, clean stories. You can allow your young reader to explore the Malkin world without fear of foul language or suggestible situations and, while the themes and messages are Christian, I've chosen to allow readers to find their own meaning within the stories. Q - Can readers get the whole series in one go? A - Not yet, but I have plans to put together boxed sets within the next few months. Enjoy and thanks for reading!
