Learn moreThe thrilling follow-up to Scholar—in
which, after discovering a coup attempt and preventing a bloody civil
war, Quaeryt was appointed princeps of Tilbor—begins a new episode
in the young Imager's life. Now second only to the governor, and still
hiding his powers as an Imager, Quaeryt is enjoying his new position, as
well as his marriage to Lord Bhayar's youngest sister, Vaelora, when a
volcanic eruption devastates the old capital of Telaryn. He
and his wife are dispatched to Extela, Telaryn's capitol city, to
replace the governor killed in the eruption. Quaeryt and Vaelora must
restore order to a city filled with chaos and corruption, and do so
quickly. The regiment under his command must soon depart to bolster
Telaryn's border defenses against a neighboring ruler who sees the
volcanic devastation as an opportunity for invasion and conquest.

While there, he had the honor of sharing the microphone in a number of BBC Radio plays with Kathleen Turner, Sharon Gless, Stockard Channing, and Helena Bonham-Carter. These experiences led him to cofound two audio production companies: The Story Circle Ltd. and Mind's Eye Productions. He has also acted on stage and television in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany. William is the original voice of Bob (and Farmer Pickles/Mr. Beasley/Mr. Sabatini) in the popular children's show Bob the Builder for the United States and Canada (Series 1-9).
