    Amy X Series

    By Danny King

    About this series

    Amy X is set to go where no Lowlander has ever gone before — somewhere else. But before she is barely at sea, a terrible storm blows in to sink her ship. 
Alone and adrift in the Southern Oceans, Amy washes back to the shores of Pompolonia but it is not the island she left only a few hours earlier. Homes have been smashed. Families are scattered. The Kingdom is in ruins. 

    But Princess Honor has a plan. She will rebuild the Kingdom in her own glorious image – with no expense or hardship spared. She will, "Make Pompolonia Great Again". Every islander is pressed into service but one person refuses to "do her bit". This must surely be someone who hates their wonderful Kingdom.

    Another storm is brewing as Amy X and Princess Honor are about to renew their acquaintance. The rest of the island had better take cover.

      The remote island of Pompolonia is so small that it's not even on most maps. But what it lacks in size it makes up for in tradition. Each year a Great Race is run, from the white sands of Octopus Bay, all the way up the mountain to Lake Pomp, a volcanic crater at the island's summit. All islanders turning 12 are compelled to race. With no exceptions.    The winners always come from one of the seven 'Great Houses' and this year will be no different. The King's own beloved daughter is set to take part and the outcome is assured. Such is tradition.   But somebody forgot to tell Amy X, a Lowland so poor that she can't even afford a last name, let alone shoes to run in. But Amy's not the type of girl to take notice of ancient traditions. She has her own ideas and her own dreams and they are every bit as precious as any Princess's.   For one hundred years the great families of Pompolonia have had it all their own way. But this year things will be different. This year a scrawny girl with no shoes and hardly any name will give them a real run for their money.   WINNER of The Story For Children Competition – Wells Festival of Literature 2016

      The King's Academy for Personal Excellence on the island of Pompolonia is a remarkable school, not only because it is the least accessible in the world but also because it can boast a perfect 100% exam rate. Most Pompolonians learn bottle making at Pomp Comp but those destined for higher things can enjoy the finest education money can buy at 'The KAPE'. This term, a new student will be inducted. Amy X has been awarded a scholarship by the Queen to make up for the events of last year. The KAPE's Headmistress is aghast. The students are aghast. Even her friends at Pomp Comp are aghast.  Amy has been searching for answers her whole life. She is about to discover that all knowledge comes at a price – especially to those who can least afford it.  SHORT-LISTED for The Story For Children Competition – Wells Festival of Literature 2017
