Why are talking cats fun to write and read about?
Cats have distinctive personalities that give rise
to funny dialogue and amusing attitudes. They’re also furry (well,
most of them) and affectionate (again, mostly). Kafka, the black cat
featured in the Forgotten Village Magical Mysteries, is both loyal
and quick-witted, and surprisingly good at helping solve mysteries. |
What is special about the Forgotten Village
Magical Mysteries?
A paranormal cozy mystery author has to keep
several important reader expectations in mind: beloved themes (an
orphan discovering a heritage, talking cats) and unique
storytelling. Inspired by a historic event of oppression, Jacqueline
Diamond turned the tables on a real-life evil queen and created an
original back story for the creation of the town of Loobly (or
L’Oubli, forgetfulness). She devised an unusual form of magical
distribution among the populace, and a heroine with unique,
awakening abilities. |
"Master
storyteller Jacqueline Diamond draws you in to this magical feline
mystery, enchanting you page after page. You’ll fall in love with
Chess Vevoda, and the wild world she’s stumbled into!”
—Neal
Shusterman, National Book Award winner for Challenger Deep
