WELCOME TO FOXHAM
WHERE COURAGE AND MISCHIEF MEET
The Foxes of Foxham saga is a folklore-rich adventure for readers of all ages - humorous and graceful, with darker edges beneath.
Packed with colourful characters — some good, some bad, some just plain mad — the stories follow wacky and magical escapades across 1950s and 1960s England and Italy, in a world where courage matters, loyalty is tested, and evil never rests — and neither do the Foxes.
THIS IS FOXHAM
The Foxes of Foxham carries readers from the bustle of Naples to the streets of London, the haunting countryside of Norfolk, and the ancient hills of Sardinia. Quick-witted, crafty, and cheeky foxes join forces with Vespa-riding wolves, brave bears, steadfast badgers, and kind — though often wayward — witches, as they battle dark forces consumed by greed, inner conflict, and dreams of conquest.
Comic mishaps and perilous twists weave together, building towards dramatic confrontations between the forces of light and darkness — confrontations met not with grim determination, but with wit, warmth, and a refusal to take evil too seriously.
At the heart of Foxham is a rich cast of characters, brought vividly to life through illustrations by Andy Catling, which capture the passion, humour, and motion of this ever-growing world.
FOXHAM: MANY TALES, ONE WORLD
“The world needs more novels like Foxes of Foxham that bring wonder and uplifting messages. Clearly, the Force is strong with the author,” wrote James Kahn, author and literary adaptor of Return of the Jedi, Poltergeist, and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
“There’s an element of folklore in there too, plus a hint of classic horror,” declared journalist Clifford Thurlow in Best of British. At the same time, Scootering Magazine — who were particularly taken with the Vespa-riding wolves — described The Foxes of Foxham as “fictional fantasy fun, with a sprinkling of Harry Potter and Star Wars ethics.”
