The other six books in the series are: "Saving the Unicorn's Horn", set in the Viking Age; "The Falconer's Quarry", set in Tudor England; "The Demon in the Embers", set during the Great Fire of London; "Slaves for the Isabella", set at the height of the Transatlantic Slave Trade; "The Shimmer on the Glass", set in Victorian Cornwall; and "The Ring from the Ruins", set in Liverpool during the Blitz.When she's not chasing round after children or chickens, or trying to shoo the deer away, Julia is working on another book for children set in the past. She has also published her first book for adults, "Time was Away", which is available on Amazon, and a collection of comic and nasty short stories for children called, "Unlucky for Some: Tales with a Bite for Vengeful Hearts".
