Following the publication of his debut novel ‘The Sheriff’s Catch’ in the UK earlier this year, Sydney-based Dr James Vella-Bardon will be in Malta to attend two book signing events hosted by Agenda Bookshop and Merlin Library. These events are open to the public and will include some interesting talks by distinguished members of Malta’s intelligentsia who have warmed to James’s novel.
‘The Sheriff’s Catch’ is a red-blooded historical thriller which should appeal to fans of reads like Outlander, Poldark, The Pillars Of The Earth and A Game Of Thrones. It is the first instalment in a five-part series called ‘The Sassana Stone Pentalogy’ and tells the story of a Spanish Armada castaway in Ireland, the enigmatic and dangerous Abel de Santiago. A Spanish soldier who was born and raised in Malta, Santiago must survive countless perils in Tudor Ireland with the help of an Irish poet-bard and skilled tracker, the ollave Muireann Mac An Bhaird.
The Sheriff’s Catch is available for sale at Agenda Bookshop and Merlin Library and the reading public is advised of the following book signing dates:
Agenda Bookshop, Pinto Wharf, Floriana
Friday 28 September 2018 1900-2100h.
