ORA and the Wild Isles

Nature has its own ideas. For a robot with only one instruction left, that is where the adventure begins.

Secrets of Skerry Isle cover
Start with Book 1

A mysterious machine.
A wonderfully wild island.

When a battered robot wakes on Blackstone Beach, most of her memories are gone. One instruction remains: RESTORE.

With Pip the puffin, Tumble the otter and Bracken the badger, ORA begins to discover what that might mean. Vanishing rivers, strange lights and hidden machines will test much more than her programming.
