Fans of the Telesa Series will have the chance to meet the
acclaimed author and get their books signed this Saturday 2nd March
at the Pacific Showcase held at the Cloud on the Auckland Viaduct. Samoan author Lani Wendt Young will be at the
Cloud from 11am to 2pm, hosted by Shop Samoa. This will be the first book
signing for the latest in the series, a
novella entitled, ‘I am Daniel Tahi’.
Lani explains, “The reader response to the character of Daniel has been
overwhelming. I wrote this new book for
the diehard Daniel fans so they could hear his side of the story and get an insight into all the scenes and
information that readers DON’T see in the first Telesa book because its told
from Leila’s point of view.”
The novella was released worldwide in December in electronic
book format but has only just become available in print. Amazon reviewers are already raving about
Daniel’s story - "I didn't think I could love Daniel's character
any more than I already did, but I was wrong. I
wish that the whole series was from his point of view."
The Telesa
Series has been called ‘the Pacific Twilight’. It is a Young Adult contemporary
romance story set in Samoa that draws on Pacific mythology and elements of the
supernatural. Thousands of copies have sold worldwide with fans flocking to
book launches and signings throughout New Zealand, Australia and Samoa.
There
are three books in the series so far: Telesa-The Covenant Keeper, Telesa-When
Water Burns, Telesa-I am Daniel Tahi. All will be available for purchase from
Shop Samoa at the Cloud at Saturday’s event. The next book, Telesa-The Bone
Bearer will release later this year.
