Book 1: The Chrysalis Key
This book has been ten years in the coming! My magnum opus, my pride and joy, my heart of hearts. I present to you....
BOOK 1 of THE TRAVELLERS: THE CHRYSALIS KEY
I first thought of the early concepts of this novel at least ten years ago. It's a complex story, there are five main characters and many moving parts. Imagine five Harry Potter storylines in one novel.
But I'm proud to say I've been able to execute it in a way that makes me so happy!
This has been many years coming and I'm finally able to announce it to everyone:
This is the first of seven books in this Young Adult Dark Fantasy Series set in fictional town of Breakfast Creek, Brisbane in the year 1999.
Blurb:
"Five teenagers. Three magical schools. A secret family curse. A tale of epic proportions you’ll never forget.
In the summer of 1999 in the unassuming Brisbane town of Breakfast Creek, five teenager never expected their detention to result in the execution of their school principal.
Now they are on the run from a demonic General of Darkness with a penchant for collecting children.
Chrysalis school has slept for 50 years. But now she’s ready to awaken.
The course of their lives is about to change forever...

What readers are saying:
"AHHHHHHHHHHH You need to read this book. It's been a LONG time since I read something that actually kept me on the edge of my seat, obsessively reading because I could NEVER figure out the plot twists." ★★★★★
"This book was soooo good. It is absolutely gripping, the writing, the descriptions, the characters and the storyline itself is so rich and wonderful that I havent been able to stop thinking about it since finishing it, nor did I want it to end. I have never wanted to jump into teh pages of a book and live the story as much as I did with this book, I loved it" ★★★★★
"Another multiple point of view book, which I love! The characters in this book were very well thought out and fleshed out. I really felt genuine connection to each and every one of them. The world this was set in was described so wonderfully. I found myself not wanting to put it down because I just had to know what was going on with each person. I loved watching each of their strengths play out in this wonderful book!" ★★★★★
"If Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and The Breakfast Club had a love child, this book would be it. Absolutely magnificent! I could not put this book down! I was so sad when it ended! It has been a long time since a fantasy novel has taken me in its grasp! I seriously could not get enough of this book! I’m so excited for the rest of the series to come! The characters are well written, and the world-building is fantastic! I was always sucked into the story and forgot I was even reading. I thoroughly enjoyed the 1999 time setting and the fact that there was no romance needed to make this book interesting. There was always something happening and plot twists to keep you on your toes! I want to buy a physical copy of this book just to have it on my shelf. The Chrysalis Key is about a group of five kids who have gone about living their normal lives when, oddly enough, they all end up in detention for various reasons. Suddenly they find themselves thrust into a world of magick, creepy beings, and a magickal school that will leave you on the edge of your seat. From odd family drama, friendships that will last a lifetime, to the front lines of magickal spells and curses...this book seems to have it all. There were constant plot twists and eerie scenes that left me quite literally gripping my kindle. I am so incredibly happy with this book! I cannot express enough how much i have enjoyed this novel! Definitely 5/5 stars. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for an action-packed, magical read! This book will not let you down! Fast, fun and gripping! I look forward to when the rest of the series comes out! They will definitely be at the top of my TBR when they come out!" ★★★★★
