The next “Harry Potter”


Does the name Barry Cunningham mean anything to you? It must. This man is the editor who discovered the literary phenomenon Harry Potter.

Well, this man has found two writers that seem to have an imagination comparable to Rowling's.

Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams are writing a marvellous series of books called “Tunnels”. With little money and a lot of optimism they published their first novel “The Highfield Mole”. Few people had the chance to buy it, but one of them reached Barry’s hands.

Barry discovered that inside those pages a huge world of adventures was waiting for a chance.

They re-edited it and changed its name into “Tunnels”.

Due to its fantastic style and its breathtaking story it has become a bestseller and very soon we will be able to watch the film of the first book in the cinema.

The first book “Tunnels” is about a boy, Will, whose father disappears in strange conditions. Will starts to investigate on his own and discovers that there is an entire colony of underground living humans ruled by a strange race called Styx.

The second book was published in 2008, “Deeper”

Last year “Free Fall” was published and very soon we will have in our libraries the fourth book called “Closer”.

  7. I like more realistic books, this type of novels seem to be a little bit boring, just because usually tell unreal stories difficult to believe. The book seems interesting i will try to read
