About this audiobook
Hello and thank you for your interest in this ebook called Keeping Koi Carp.
Welcome to the enchanting, almost silent, meditative world of Koi carp keeping, where beauty, serenity, and the art of aquatic care converge. This beginner`s manual is designed to be your gateway into the captivating realm of these exquisite ornamental fish. Whether you`re a newcomer to the aquatic hobby or an enthusiast seeking to expand your knowledge, this guide will provide you with essential insights to ensure the well-being and vitality of your Koi.
Despite being found worldwide, and being inextricably linked to China and Japan, they actually originated in the bodies of fresh water around the Black, Caspian and Aral Seas. Koi carp have transcended their humble beginnings to become cherished symbols of tranquillity and harmony in water gardens around the globe. Their dazzling array of colours, elegant patterns, and graceful movements make them living masterpieces that can transform any pond into a living canvas.
Owen Jones
Author Owen Jones, from Barry, South Wales, came to writing novels relatively recently, although he has been writing all his adult life. He has lived and worked in several countries and travelled in many, many more. He speaks, or has spoken, seven languages fluently and is currently learning Thai, since he lived in Thailand with his Thai wife of ten years. "It has never taken me long to learn a language," he says, "but Thai bears no relationship to any other language I have ever studied before." When asked about his style of writing, he said, "I'm a Celt, and we are Romantic. I believe in reincarnation and lots more besides in that vein. Those beliefs, like 'Do unto another...', and 'What goes round comes around', Fate and Karma are central to my life, so they are reflected in my work'. His first novel, 'Daddy's Hobby' from the series 'Behind The Smile: The Story of Lek, a Bar Girl in Pattaya' has become the classic novel on Pattaya bar girls and has been followed by six sequels. However, his largest collection is 'The Megan Series', twenty-three novelettes on the psychic development of a young teenage girl, the subtitle of which, 'A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger and One Scary Mother!' sums them up nicely. After fifteen years of travelling, Owen and his wife are now back in his home town. He sums up his style as: "I write about what I see... or think I see... or dream... and in the end, it's all the same really..."
