As you browse our website you will be informed of the stock status of particular titles. If you are unsure what the status means, an explanation will pop up when your mouse cursor moves over it.

Please note:
Individual titles stock status is updated three times a week so reports are normally accurate.

From time to time however we can have multiple orders come in between website updates so status reports for a short period of time may be inaccurate, which means a title listed as "In Stock" may need to go to backorder.

Kathryn England is a descendant of Erik Nerdenburger. She knows this because she doesn’t like flapping swords, clanging shields, wielding spears or swinging spiky balls around and she looks really silly in a winged helmet. She lives in Sydney with her husband and youngest son, where she writes the kind of stories that kids can almost believe. She is also the author of The Rescue of Princess Athena (Lothian, 2000) and New Bjorn (Lothian, 2002), both published in Lothian’s Takeaways series.
