About David Chandler

David lives on an asparagus plantation in Fiji with two cats and an invisible ostrich called Gerald. Gerald is partial to asparagus, therefore David is still to realise his fortune. Well, the bit about the cats is true!

In truth, David trained as an actor. His biggest success back then was having his resume and photo returned from a Spielberg casting with a staple in the corner. Who knows what was pinned there...! Later, he became a professional illusionist for a few years - yes, floating rabbits and pulling women out of a hat - or something like that.

David has always written and is the proud owner of a plethora of unfinished novels ranging from a brief outline about cyber-crime to a hilarious internet rom-com that he abandoned after 35,000 words. He has, however, managed to squeeze out a number of children's books, and TV screenplays which have received slightly warmer than body temperature reviews.

Recently, he has resurrected his acting career - appearing in an Armenian Horror Show - Mahvan Jokate - as the evil Mr. Smith, in Death Squad as the evil Nikolai Livanov (we're seeing a pattern here) and, more recently in Purgatory as the... marginally unpleasant Preston. These roles had him running to finally add something to his IMDb page.

Hob and the Crystal Sphere (The Boggart Book 2) 31/12/2020

by David Chandler

$5.30

HOB'S BACK!

The Ogre leaned towards the little Boggart. “Where we go, there are rivers of molten rock, lakes of acid, seas and oceans filled with the stench of millions of dead and dying creatures.”
“Do they sell candyfloss?”
The Ogre smiled at the Boggart’s humour, but somehow Hob didn’t feel very comfortable under that evil twisted grimace.
“You are a brave little thing,” he rumbled. “I might not have you killed after all. I might just keep you as a pet.”
* * *
Two years have passed since Hob’s last adventure. No longer a true Faerie, he finds himself alone, until the Council of Seven offers him a task to find the Crystal Sphere, an ancient artefact that they hope will speed up the process of waking all the Faerie races. With Minxy the Imp to help him, Hob finds himself plunged into a world of Goblins, Ogres, Giants, Dragons, Magic & Mayhem and, once again finds himself faced with difficult, heart-breaking decisions.

by David Chandler

$4.64

A TALE OF FRIENDSHIP, LOVE & LOSS
Polly raised her foot and brought it down firmly on the hillock. “Mr Boggart! Wake up, Mr Boggart!”
Again, she stamped hard on the dry earth. “Hello! It’s time to get up!”
She laughed and crouched down on the ground, her mouth pressed against the grass. “Is there anybody home?”
Polly turned her head and listened for a few moments. “Nobody here,” she grinned. “Perhaps it’s the wrong hill.”
-----
When twelve-year-old Polly moves into her new house she gets more than she bargained for.
With the help of Mrs Butterworth, the old lady next door, Polly finds herself in a world of Fairies and Goblins, Pixies & Elves and much more.

In a race against time, only she, and a mischievous Boggart called Hob, can bring back the Faerie races that were accidentally put to sleep by an ancient spell.

'Polly and the Boggart' is the first in a series of magical stories detailing the exploits of Polly, Hob and the little Boggart's friends.
