I ordered your book & another the other day, & when it came in I told my father "don't worry, I'll have enough books to last me at least 'till Fri." then that night, I started & finished Den of Theives that night. I just couldn't put it down! will miss Golding keep writing books about you? I just can't get enough! :D (Er hem - they are MY books! Dr Golding is merely my representative. And I will keep on writing as long as I have adventures to tell. Cat)

I was wondering about the girl in all the covers for the books, is there a reason her eys are brown and not green? Thank you again for all your hard work! Natalya (That often happens with book covers - image being not quite accurate - because I was not available for the artist and they got in a model to take my place. Cat)

Hi. I love the cat royal series and still have yet to read a few of you series becuase the libary dosen't have them. I read all three book in a matter of 7 and a half hours. Most people are like "Ok thats weird. Don't you do anything else?" but i'm homeschooled and once i get my work done, which takes me about 5 hours i can read all i want. I was hopeing in the next books in sted of writing and this and that and another thing that you could use comas. I finished the 3rd book in the cat royal series and want to pre-order the fourth book. Do you have any advice for a person who reads books about 6-9 hours a day and is writing a book. How do you motavate your self? Best wishes and hope to soon read the next companions book, -Ehvia batoon (Hi Ehvia, Best tip is to have fun with the plotting - that's the motor of the book. You sound like the kind of person who could manage a series of your own. So get out your pencil and plot! Julia)

Hiya, I absolutely love your books, I have only read 2 so far though and am going to get some more! I read Diamond of Drury Lane and then got addicted to it, so i bought cat among the pigeons. I really like cat- she's kinda like me! Julia ur the best writer ever and i have recomended ur books 2 my friends as well. wen i read cat among the pigeons i read it in 2 days and i could have read it one but i had to stop myself so i could enjoy it for longer. I'm a Julia Golding Bookworm! you just have to be the best author ever! How do u get inspired to write the books and the plot?!?! Luv ur books (Hi Hope - Thanks for the high praise. You can see the inspiration on the FAQ page on Ask. Julia)

Ohhh, this was SUCH a good book! You're an AMAZING author! I enjoyed the book so much, as I did the first two! I can hardly wait for Cat O' Nine Tails to come out in the States! I am so impatient for it!

Hey!! I love the cat royal series but unfortunately i missed this one in reading it. Is there anywhere else where you can read it online besides buying the book or buying the audio? Thanks. (No but you could try your local library. j)

Hello, Julia! (or do you prefer Ms. Golding?...) I just ran into your books at the library recently, and I love them! I didn't know until I found this site that there were more books to be read! When I finished Cat among the Pigeons, I was so disappointed that there were no more of your books at the library. :) Now I can't WAIT to read the others! (Great - that's what the site hopes to do! Julia)

Dear Miss Julia, You have woven some simply spellbinding stories about Cat! They are some of my favorite books! I really enjoy historical fiction, and Cat is a fun way to learn about more history! I just finished reading Den of Thieves. Do you know when Cat O'nine Tails is coming out in the U.S.? I can't find information about it anywhere! Your faithful reader, Arya. (In the Fall - see FAQs on my contact page. j)

I have only read the first two books and cant wait for this one to come to the united states! Is there a possible way to read a few of the chapters, like a preview of it? I am so excited to find out what happens to Cat next. Thank you for writing! (Hi , Den is just out in the US. Julia)

Hi Julia, I love!!!!!!!!!! your books especially the cat royal series. I also read the companions quartet and they're also really good. I want to read this book - Den of Thieves, but the library doesn't have it. It's so sad. You are a great writer thanx for all your books.
