success for NZ children's author

Word|link Literary Agency is delighted to announce that Phillip Simpson’s MINOTAUR has been acquired by Month9Books from the US, who plan to publish the novel in paperback and eBook in 2015. 

Georgia McBride, owner and publisher of Georgia McBride Media Group says, “MINOTAUR is the perfect mix of history and fantasy holding appeal for readers in search of something different but based in something familiar. Simpson's unique and richly layered story will also appeal to teachers seeking exciting classroom reading materials. We're excited for readers to get their hands on MINOTAUR.”

Vicki Marsdon from Word|link adds, “I’m thrilled for Phillip,(above right), and we are looking forward to a long and happy relationship between Word|link and Month9Books. Phillip has worked extremely hard on his writing and this publishing deal has rewarded his efforts. With the valuable input that comes from working with a great editorial team I think we will see Phillip achieve considerable success.
