Faris and Jack

by Melanie Cusick-Jones

Overview

Life has not been kind to ten-year-old Faris. He has lived at the Grimbaldi Foundation for the Potentially Lacking for as long as he can remember, so long that he doesn’t even have a last name – he’s Faris, just Faris.

One magical night an opportunity to escape lands on his window ledge and Faris grabs hold with both hands. He doesn’t know where or who he will end up with, just that life anywhere but The Foundation has to be better.

Join Faris on his first adventure, when he finds out that he is a lot more than a ‘normal’ boy and what friendship really means. Perhaps you will be as surprised as him when you meet his new friends….

(Children's book, aimed at readers aged 7+)

About the Author

After graduating from The University of Sheffield with an English Literature Masters in 2003, Melanie has been writing fiction - time permitting - ever since.

'Hope's Daughter', released in December 2011, was Melanie's debut novel and the first release from The Ambrosia Sequence, a YA dystopian series. The companion book 'The Rainbow Maker's Tale' was released in late 2013. Most recently, Melanie has been working on a children's series, releasing 'Faris and Jack' and then 'Faris and the Monoceros' in early 2018.

Melanie's latest project - due in late 2018 - is 'Cirque de la Nuit' a stand-alone YA paranormal novel, before she returns to completing The Ambrosia Sequence, with three further books.

When she's not writing Melanie enjoys the wet weather of the north of England with her dogs or disappearing into a book for a few hours (no surprise there then).
