A modern classic for children
The Tales of Pangloria series has been described by readers as a modern Chronicles of Narnia and similar style books. There are many twists and turns and new magical creatures for the reader to discover and the ever expanding world of Pangloria, which grows larger with every book. If you have enjoyed any of the Enid Blyton, Famous Five books or J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series for example, then the Tales of Pangloria series may be books that you will also enjoy reading.
Graham Peebles describes Beyond the Maelstrom as a magical time travel adventure - that I loved to read and dreamt about as a child.
