Using Runic Script

I have always been interested in Runic symbols and they seemed like the perfect script to use in the Moon Stealer books. I wanted to create a primative feeling of age as well as wisdom.

Runic inscriptions have appeared since the first century when they were etched on objects for practical as well as magical purposes. They have been used as an Oracular device (used to predict the future), as magical symbols, calendars, riddles and poems. They also had practical uses as the marks or signatures of tradesman and stonemasons.

Interestingly, some of the modern English language has origins in Runes. The letter called Feoh means Fee in English, still used to denote a debt.
Even the shape of the Runes has symbolic meaning today. The rune means desire and is the ‘fingers crossed’ symbol we use when we hope (or desire) something.

"After finding the magical Silver Bough in the first Moon Stealer book, the portal to the underworld opens enabling Sir Edgar and the children; Max, Joe and Scarlet to jump through. They find themselves in a world at war and quickly become involved in an uprising against the Faerie Queen.

Their quest to find Peter Crisp continues, but the threat of the alien bacteria back home looms over them. Sir Edgar's attempt at gaining the Faerie Queens help in ridding the Moon Stealers from Earth looks like it may be a fruitless task.

In such an unchartered land it's difficult knowing who is friend and who is foe.

Danger lurks in the most innocent of places.
