The Cornerstone (36 page)

Read The Cornerstone Online

Authors: Nick Spalding

I was as surprised as Max Bloom to discover that the story was a fantasy involving magic books and parallel dimensions…

Max’s reaction to everything that happens to him in the Chapter Lands would pretty much have been mine, had I been the one sucked through a portal to another world. Having said that, as I’m older and a bit wiser than Max, I would probably have been nicer to Garrowain, and not called Jacob Carvallen ‘baldy’. I loved the way he trash talked Draveli though – he’s quicker off the mark than me in that respect.

I thoroughly enjoyed writing The Cornerstone and I hope you enjoyed following Max Bloom’s adventures as much as I did.

The book will stay sat on Charlie Pearce’s enormous bookshelf for now - but at some point in the future I’d like to think it’ll be taken down and opened again, so we can return with Max to the Chapter Lands to continue his story. I don’t know about you, but there are a few things I want to find out more about. What actually happened to Morodai, for example… and I’m not a hundred percent sure Peter Bloom has really been in Malaysia all this time, either. I think there might be more to The Cornerstone’s relationship with the Bloom family than we realise…

All the best and thank you,

Nick
