ARE YOU EVER YOUR OWN WORST ENEMY? An apocalyptic war rages between the human and Shadow worlds. Griffin, leading a small but legendary ragtag group known as the GSA, is desperately campaigning for the two worlds to live in peace.However when Eclipse, Griffin's own super-powerful Shadow, turns up in the base, the stakes are raised dangerously high. Eclipse no longer believes that humans and Shadows belong together, and Griffin fears that Eclipse may be turned spy for the Empire, putting everything that he's created at risk. Griffin must use all of his wit and duplicity to determine if his other half is now his best friend or his worst enemy... not knowing that the answer will finally decide the future of both worlds. Eclipse is the fifth book in the Shadows series, a saga of unlikely friendship between human and monster, set against the backdrop of a darkly thrilling mystery. Interview with the Author Q: Is it true you started writing the Shadows Series when you were nine?
A: It is! I think it was around that time that I started feeling the lonely feeling, that sensation of missing something, but I wasn't quite sure what. So I started telling Shadows as bedtime stories to my godsister, and it grew from there. I wrote countless drafts in the back of the class at school, and when I was fourteen I tried to get it published. It took a wee bit longer than that for it to get out into the world, but it feels so good that it's here now and people are reading it and each having their own unique experience of it. Q: If you had to compare Shadows to something, what would you compare it to? A: I hear people saying it reminds them slightly of Saturday morning cartoons, and it definitely carries that inspiration; I grew up with Beyblades, Pokémon and those sorts of anime on TV, and also those old movies on VHS like Dragon World, where the young human befriends a magical creature. Personally I think those comparisons exist because the soul-linked magical creature thing, what I like to call monster buddy fiction, is less of a genre these days- so I'm hoping that Shadows helps bring it back! I'd love more authors to be putting out books like that so I can read them. Q: So what other genres does Shadows fall into? A: It's a young adult thriller, amongst good company like the Hunger Games, the Maze Runner and the Chaos Walking Trilogy. It's definitely fantasy/science fiction, but it's based in our own modern time. I see it as less a typical fantasy adventure quest, and more so a thriller where the characters are running for their lives, being hunted, trying to survive just long enough to unravel whatever the heck the conspiracy is they've gotten themselves caught up in. It's emotional, thrilling, laugh-out-loud (I hope), and a lot of fun. Q: Be honest. Is Griffin Cameron based on you?
A: No. He's much shorter. Q: Anything else to add? A: Read Shadows for Cirrus, the Fruit-Loops loving, slightly unhinged dragon-parrot. See, you've got to read it now. Thanks for reading!
