Outta The Way JK Catherine Banner Is Coming
J K Rowling should be looking over her shoulder, there's a newcomer catching fast and her name is Catherine Banner. Her debut novel, The Eyes Of A King is at number 7 on the Amazon.co.uk Children’s Bestseller List and Number 30 on the overall Bestseller list. Not bad going for a 19 year old, but the book hasn't just been written, no, she wrote the book at the age of 14. The second book is finished and the third has already been started.
Now I may have used a small amount of hyperbole at the start, no one knows how sales will do, or whether her writing will sweep around the world in the same way as it did for J K Rowling, but she is off to a good start.
