Students
* I think they are terrific stories. I love reading mysteries and adventure-type
books and these are really great. *
We think The Cat Burglar was very schabooly and we
give it 7/10. *
Fifi and the Angels was 10/10. Just brilliant. * I would read more of the Twit mysteries because they are different and you never know what will happen next.
* I like detective stories and these are very good.
* I wouldnt change any part of the stories. They are
perfect.
* I like the idea of short mysteries and they have a good plot.
* I would read more Twit mysteries because they are funny and
entertaining.
* I love the Nicholas Twit books. I think they are mlurp. I am up to your third story and can’t wait until your third book. * Hey Nick Twit. Me and my friend just absolutely love your books but we've already got the 1st, 2nd and 3rd books and we were just wondering if we could get the 4th book. * What I want to say is about the first book that you made about Nicholas Twit. Its cool and I have to say I will give it a 10 out of 10. Where did you get this Twit speak? My favourites will have to be schmickledickle and schabooly and all the rest. * My favorite story of yours so far, would probably have to be "The MCG Bomb Mystery", because it was full of excitement the whole way through! Anyway, I have to go. Want to start reading Book 5 ASAP. I'm sure it will be as adventurous and exciting as the other four. See you!
Teachers
* The books arrived yesterday. Very impressive quality. Will let my kids loose on them. * Cen, Keep writing, we can't wait for more of your material. The kids have thoroughly enjoyed having you along with the staff. * You wouldn't believe how often I use your books in my teaching. They are fantastic!!! * It was just delightful. After your visit the children had lots and lots of wonderful things to say. We really enjoyed your visit and loved hearing about Sherlock Holmes. Presently we are reading Fifi and the Angels and will definitely be reading more of your stories. We love your books. Where did you get the great idea for Nick Twit? * TheNicholas Twit Mysteries Books 1, 2 and 3 are very much in demand; so much so boys are on a waiting list and we are very keen to obtain the fourth book.
Parents
* The Nicholas Twit books arrived and the children in my son's class are loving them - not to mention that my son is now dead popular for providing something they actually look forward to reading.
* You told me the books were suitable for 12 year olds. I enjoyed them and I’m nearly 75.
Sherlockians, Writers and Historians
* Dear Cenarth,
Just another note to let you know how impressed I am with your Nicholas Twit book. It's refreshing to read a section like "Sherlockian Snippets" and find that the things mentioned are all correct and interesting.
* I did enjoy reading The Goldfields Ghost Adventure and was amazed at how well you captured Walhalla. There are so many historic and descriptive details you recounted. I will place Nicholas Twit in our Research Centre so others may enjoy meeting him.
* Congratulations on such an attention-grabbing, fun-filled book. I particularly enjoyed the touches of Walhalla history. Shock and horror at Mrs Basket's accident. I hope she's going to be okay.
Nick Twit's use of Holmes's techniques makes perfect sense in these tales of 21st Australia; it all reminds me of Terrance Dicks' excellent Baker Street Irregulars novels, which can only be good. And there are puzzles and Sherlockian Snippets to keep the reader, of whatever age, engaged.
Professionals
* Your MCG Bomb Mystery story is great. It's a fabulous idea to turn someone who is more traditionally seen as a villain into a hero - such a refreshing change.
Schizophrenia Australia Foundation * Cliff-hanging tales and subliminal lessons for young readers. Your books will encourage youngsters to read the original Conan Doyle stories. Classic Specialities
