Books by Alex Smith

Its about a pirate witch tries to save the world from the val gener

What would a life without sadness, anger, defeat, love, and vulnerability truly represent? It represents a life lived in fear. Every human is hesitant of showing their true, raw, authentic selves; fearing they will never be accepted. No matter what difficulties a person has faced, what age, what stage in life; every person will relate to the emotions felt in this piece. This book will make you question whether or not your life is meaningful, what positives/negatives you put back into the world, what life events/people have sculpted you, if you give into your demons or flood them out with light. Alex has courageously displayed all of his darkest thoughts for the public to see in such an artistic fashion.

Just as Neil Gaiman¿s The Graveyard Book reworked Kipling¿s The Jungle Book for a modern audience with a liking for the supernatural, Devilskein & Dearlove is a darker, more edgy, contemporary reworking of Frances Hodgson Burnett¿s classic The Secret Garden. An orphaned teenager is taken in by a reluctant distant relative, and in her new home makes an unexpected friend and finds a secret realm. It has shades of the quirky fantastical in the style of Miyazaki¿s (Studio Ghibli) animated films like Spirited Away and Howl¿s Moving Castle (originally a novel by Diana Wynne Jones).Alex says ¿As a child The Secret Garden was one of my first favourite novels - one of the first I relished reading by myself. Although Devilskein & Dearlove is very different, it was inspired by that novel and its themes.¿¿Alex Smith¿s quirky imagination knows no bounds.¿ - André Brink
