Bug or intentional? in the forum Help and Support 2 years, 2 months agoThis is a known bug. Every now and then the cache reverts to a very old copy. I have yet to figure out why.
I’ll clear the site cache and see if that fixes it.

Blog: Hello! I just wanted to say that I’ve recently reread the Runemarks books (with the exception of Testament of Loki, which I’m reading for the first time!) and finding endless reasons why child me loved these books, and why adult me loves them even more. They’re infused with such hopeful magic, and have kept me afloat during my first Christmas without my mother — I feel like they found me again at just the right time. Thank you so much for writing them and sharing those stories and characters with the world! (I’m sad to say they spent some not-inconsiderable time in storage after we moved house, but I’m very pleased to say they now have pride of place on my bookshelf once again!) from
