IFWG is very pleased to announce the acquisition of Tasmania-based Michael B Fletcher’s fantasy trilogy, Masters of Scent. “We’ve had a long-association with Michael,” said Gerry Huntman, Managing Director of IFWG, “as we had the pleasure of publishing his collection of fantasy short fiction, Kings of Undercastle. This time, we have a significant body of work with a unique take on epic fantasy. We very much look forward to releasing these three books, starting with Masters of Scent.”

Michael B Fletcher is a writer of adult and YA speculative fiction including fantasy, science fiction and horror. His first book Kings of Under-Castle, an anthology of humorous adventures featuring two rogues who live in the drains under a medieval castle, was published by IFWG  Publishing Australia in 2013. 

Fletcher has published over eighty short stories, many with a ‘dark’ or horror bent, in magazines and anthologies in Australia, USA and the UK. 

The first book of Masters of Scent was previously short-listed in the Australian Olvar Wood Foundation Awards. 

Fletcher has also co-authored two books with other authors. Kat, a YA Science Fiction is currently being assessed for potential publication, while Mont of Siroc, a YA Fantasy is yet to be submitted.  He is a member of a group of published Tasmanian writers who meet monthly to provide a supportive environment and hone their writing skills

Masters of Scent (book 1) will be released world-wide late in 2022.
