Book launches are exciting – especially when the author is someone we know.  This afternoon I’m heading off to the launch of my friend, Lynne Stringer’s The Crown.

The Crown is the second book in the YA Sci-Fi Verindon Trilogy (published by Wombat Books). I enjoyed reading the first book The Heir  as High School student Sarah discovers that all is not as it seems. The sci-fi elements of the book filter in slowly and the book ends with a bang. I’m looking forward to reading The Crown which is set on another planet and follows Sarah as she adjusts to a new identity, a new world, new responsibilities and dangers.

And the launch will be a blast.

Lynne’s third book The Reign is due out next year.
