The Bracelet of Akra
Twins Archer and Mimi Price have a growing to-do list. Item Number Two is to rescue Mum, who has been kidnapped by King Francas of Neven.
The twins gather a team of rescuers, including Toby, who’s no longer collecting dog poo, hunter/tracker Pachina, and a mix of adults because, well, sometimes adults can be helpful.
Together, they scour the highs and lows of Neven, searching for Mum, whose cunning kidnappers are always one, two, or even three steps ahead.
As the group faces off against giant trolls, tiny goblins, and fearsome golems, Mimi and Archer try not to lose sight of Item Number One: track down their elusive grandad.
The Bracelet of Akra continues the tale that began in
The Books of Neven.
The Bracelet of Akra
Chapter Bite
Raise your hand if nightmares make your day, er, night.
Archer Price’s hand stayed down. Numbers were more his thing. When his latest nightmare woke him, he scored it out of ten.
Archer’s Nightmare scored a fourteen because it was dreadfully awful. Archer’s twin sister, Mimi, was part of it. That wasn’t the dreadfully awful part, although sisters can be annoying.
The twins had some problems:
Problem #1: Archer and Mimi weren’t at home in Marshton. They weren’t holidaying at the beach or skiing down a snowy mountain. The twins weren’t in Marshton because of …
Problem #2: The cube. It opened a doorway, which wasn’t a regular doorway. Regular doorways lead to exciting places, like your room at home or the sports arena where your favourite team plays.
This door led to Neven, a medieval world that looked nothing like Marshton. Neven wasn’t an exciting place. Well, it was, but you’d also need the word dangerous. Scary was another word that worked well. Or terrifying or sinister.
The Gaoler–not your friend
The dungeon–the disgusting smells and creepy sounds are still there. So are the rats–more of them
More places not to visit in Neven.
Calm Bay, Neven’s port for ships. It’s full of pirates, villains, and criminals. Sometimes, you’ll find a ship
The Noisy Crow–a tavern in Akra. It’s also full of villains and criminals. No pirates, though. They’re at Calm Bay
Who’s Who in Book 2 …

Pachina–Neven’s best hunter and tracker
Mimi Price–she juggles and plays soccer (not at the same time)
