Joseph Delaney Quote
And an unaware witch means a witch who doesn't know she's a witch, and because she's a women that makes her double trouble. Never trust a women. My mothers a women, I said, suddenly feeling a little angry, and I trust her.Mothers are usually women, said the Spook. And mothers are usually quite trustworthy, as long as your their son. Otherwise look out!

About Joseph Delaney
Born in Preston, Lancashire, in 1945, Delaney started his career as a teacher, who later authored science fiction and fantasy novels under the pen name J. K. Haderack. After struggling to find success as an author of books for adults, Delaney transitioned to writing children's books under his real name, beginning with the publication of The Spook's Apprentice, in 2004. The book was widely successful, selling over 3 million copies and winning multiple awards. It has been adapted into a play script, the feature film Seventh Son, and a French graphic novel.
The Spook's Apprentice marked the start of his highly acclaimed Spook's series, which eventually encompassed 20 books, along with several other works set in the same universe. After the publication of the series' second book, Delaney retired from teaching to become a full-time writer. Additionally, Delaney published two other series for children: the science fiction and fantasy trilogy Arena 13, and the dark fantasy duology Aberrations.
Delaney died in Manchester in 2022, at the age of 77. His final book, Brother Wulf: Wulf's War, was published posthumously the following year.
