A 13-YEAR-OLD was kept busy on Saturday as she took part in her first book signing.

Toni Mauger has recently had her first book, Moon Light Eclipse, published by Melody Press.

The St Sampson’s High student wrote the fantasy book last summer. It follows an orphan boy as he fights to claim his rightful place on the throne.

At the Lexicon on Saturday, fans kept her busy signing her novel.

Miss Mauger said the signing had been going well.

‘It has been busy,’ she said.

‘At first I was worried people wouldn’t come, but there have been about 50 or 60 people so far.’
