Global book chart success for Wirral author
AN award winning Wirral author is
celebrating her latest novel hitting the number one spot on the world's largest
online bookstore. Estelle Maher, 46, from Prenton, released her new book:-
'Angel's Rebellion' on Amazon earlier this month and within less than 24 hours of
being released, the publication had become an Amazon bestseller reaching the top
position in its category.
The mum-of-2, who won Best Spiritual Fiction in the 2018 Spiritual Book Awards
for her debut novel 'Grace and the Ghost,' said she was delighted with
the news.
It's hoped her success will continue as she now prepares to publicly launch the
book at Liverpool's indie bookshop Write Blend in Waterloo, on September 28.
During the event, which will start at 7.30pm, Estelle will talk to guests about
her journey as an author and will sign copies of her latest novel.
Once launched, the book along with her first publication will be stocked at
Write Blend and also at the new 'Indie Bookshop' at The Barn in Heswall,
which supports independent writers, crafters and artists.
Warm hearted Crowley the ghost returns in this well penned spin-off to:-
'Grace and the Ghost' but Estelle says readers can expect a bit more grit and a bit
less romance this time around.
She said:- "I'm absolutely thrilled to have become an Amazon bestseller
with my latest novel. I was watching the charts closely on release day and
watching it move up one by one was very exciting. I still can't believe it
managed to get to the top spot in less than 24 hours, it was just fantastic."
Estelle, who by day works as a civil servant, has written for many years, but
only recently decided to pursue her ambition of becoming a published author and
all her hard work is paying off.
Earlier in 2018, she fought off competition from an outstanding number of book
entries from across the globe on a range of topics from astrology to psychic
awakening to be named:- 'Best Spiritual Fiction' for her Amazon bestselling title:-
'Grace
and the Ghost.'
Published with the support of independent publisher Team Author UK, 'Angel's
Rebellion' is a story about angels and souls, heaven and earth.
