Hello, C A Deegan, what is your book called and to what genre doe it belong?
The Cracklock Saga. Book 1: Fae or Foe? Fantasy
So tell us what is it about?
The stories are set in our world but with an overlap with the world of the Faery, with a few other worlds thrown in. The protagonist knows nothing about Faeries or anything else; he's just a normal teenager before everything gets really strange. He has a lot to deal with quite quickly, but fortunately has some family and friends who can help him. Throw in the megalomanic other family members, and it's a melting pot of myth, folklore and peril. I have three books released at the moment. Book 4 is currently with my editors with a planned release for Quarter 4 2022. I am now firmly ensconced on Book 5.
What inspired you to write your book?
I was triggered by those awful fairy books I had to read to my children! They were all the same, even though there were hundreds of them. It was reading those to my daughter over the years that got me started – I always wondered what would happen if someone didn't like fairies, what they would do about it, and could anybody stop them? This idea grew, and the Cracklocks were born. I liked the idea of people who hated the Fae and everything they stood for. Everything else kind of grew organically from there; I had character ideas and they all started popping up to say hello.
