These are some of the books that are still in the works. There are plans for a number of other projects in the near future too, but Oisin's a control freak who doesn't like showing anything to anybody before he's good and ready...
The Baby Giant
Finn MacCool is the biggest, strongest giant in Ireland. He is happy and hairy and spends most of his time fighting bullies.
But Finn is tired of fighting. One day, he and his wife Úna decide to go on holiday. Finn builds a huge stone bridge across the sea to Scotland. But as he and Úna get ready to cross, another giant comes stamping over the bridge. This monster is as big as two normal giants. He is nasty and mean and he won't fight fair. And now he is coming to beat up Finn MacCool.
Finn and Úna need a clever plan to beat the Scottish giant, and they need it fast...
The Baby Giant will be published in 2009 by O'Brien Press, as part of the Panda Legends series .
Strangled Silence
'Ask me no secrets, I'll tell you no lies.'
Amina Mir is a doing work experience at a newspaper in London when she meets Ivor McMorris. Ivor is convinced he's being watched. He served in the war in Sinnostan and believes that someone interfered with his memories while he was there. He's afraid that if he tries to do anything about it, the watchers might make him disappear.
Chi Sandwith investigates conspiracies. He has spoken to soldiers who, like Ivor, are haunted by their experiences in Sinnostan. They speak in fearful tones of a covert operations group known as the Scalps. People who ask too many questions about the Scalps tend to suffer 'accidents'.
Tariq is Amina's teenage brother. He's taking part in a new school programme, run by the Army. They are using action-packed computer games to teach parts of the curriculum... and he's loving it. But he starts to suspect that the games have another purpose.
Some questions are better left unanswered. Some mysteries are best left unsolved. The truth is out there - but it could get you killed...
