Scales & George – Out Now

Mark Hastings books, Podcast, Poetry , , , , , , , ,

Meet Scales – a dragon who lives inside a cave, beneath a mountain, in the Land of Mountain Shadow.
Meet George – a brave knight, defender, warrior, and hero to the people of Mountain Shadow.

One day, while resting at home, in his cave, underneath the Earth, Scales is visited by George, who tells him he wishes to slay Scales for the sake of his people. But why? How? And what happened when this dragon and this hero came face to face with one another? Well, the only way to find out is within the story of Scales & George.

I am thrilled to say that my new children’s ‘Scales & George’ is now available to buy on Amazon. This book was a long time in the making, as is the story within. The original story was first published in my short-story and poetry collection Too Close to The Sun in 2016, and then republished again in 2024; however, this new illustrated version, illustrated by me, is how the story was always meant to be enjoyed, because it was always written for a younger audience – though I believe the story can be enjoyed by those of all ages.

And not only can Scales & George be enjoyed in its new paperback form from Amazon, but it can also be listened to on Spotify, and it can also be enjoyed visually on YouTube:

It has been a joy to bring Scales & George to life in a way that I always wanted it to be when I first wrote it 10 years ago, and I hope that it can now be enjoyed as I originally intended it to be.

Life is never a straight path.
Everybody sometimes finds themselves at a crossroads of space and time. Everything and everyone is connected. When life can sometimes feel impossible to understand and hard to navigate, everybody needs to seek out a Pathfinder of poetry
who can help to show them the way.

Hi, everyone!

I am very happy to announce that my new poetry collection, The Pathfinder, is now available to order in paperback from Amazon.

The Pathfinder is a book about beginnings, endings, new beginnings – in essence: life… the poetry of life.

The Pathfinder is my poetic and personal journey of discovery over the last year – but within there are verses and poems from my past that I had forgotten about, which still speak to the poetic truth within me, and within all of us throughout our lives.

Get your copy of the paperback version of The Pathfinder from Amazon now, and look out for the ebook and audiobook versions coming soon.

Enjoy! 😊

I believe that Life is Poetry, and I believe that Poetry is Life. I believe that Change is the Music of the Universe, I believe that Light cannot be seen without Darkness. I believe that the faces, the voices, the Memories I have of those whom I have known, who have inspired me throughout my life, are more important than I could ever put into words. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and I believe that the Poetry of Everything that has happened to me is the reason why I am here.

My new poetry collection ‘The Comeback Kid‘ is filled with over a hundred poems about life, light, inspiration, loss, love, experiences, recollections, relationships, feelings, emotions, memories, the path, the journey, the trials and the tribulations that we all have to face to fulfil our destiny.
