‘‘Talented narrator Helen Langford entertains the listener with a breathless and emotional performance for White Pines, the new cosmic-folk-Celtic-cult-fantasy-horror audiobook from Gemma Amor. The story is told in first person, which makes it even more personal, and follows a woman as she returns to her roots in a strange and creepy village. This is a dark, gripping, terrifying, and entertaining novel that will haunt your dreams!
The writing is sharp, powerful and vivid, the events are truly unsettling and the entire adventure is creepy and very atmospheric. I’m really glad to have discovered Helen Langford as a narrator because she is very gifted.’’

Join Pop, a 7 year old boy with autism and follow him on his journey into a magical world where his autistic traits become superpowers!
When her father dies, it's left to Gwen to fulfill her father's wishes and scatter his ashes on the top of Glastonbury Tor in Somerset, England. Stepping into the ruined church tower, a gold ring catches her eye—a ring embossed with a dragon emblem. She's snatched into the dangerous world of the Dark Ages, where she discovers she's expected to fulfill a prophecy, by marrying Prince Arthur and helping him become the king of legend.
In a time of murky history and confusing legends, Gwen, a girl from the twenty-first century who fell back in time to become King Arthur's Queen Guinevere, has no idea which of the tales told by her late father, a fanatical Arthurian scholar, are true. Her worst fear is that history is fixed, and she might be merely treading a path long laid down for her, that she can do nothing to alter.
Every decision she makes could lead her closer to the doom that hangs over the people she's come to love—Camlann. The battle in which Arthur, the man she's given up everything for, is destined to die by the hand of his wicked nephew, Medraut.
With a head full of the Arthurian legends, Gwen knows both too much and too little. She's a girl from her husband's future keeping all she knows a secret—out of fear some of it could be true.
However, she also fears that if it isn't, revealing her suspicions could be the one thing that might make everything she's afraid of happen. And she loves Arthur too much to let him die at Camlann.
For love, she follows her husband north to the old Roman Wall and the town of Vindolanda, then beyond the Wall into dangerous enemy territory. She has to leave behind the quiet librarian she once was and discover her inner warrior queen, as she sees the battles her husband is famous for unfold before her eyes.

“Helen was a dream to work with. As well as delivering an authentic Cornish sound (surprisingly hard to come by), her standard English reads were the mustard as well. A nice light sound, versatile, easy to direct, great with the tech, good, prompt communications throughout, and reliable. It makes your life a lot easier when you have a v-o as professional as this.”
Dominic Frisby
Helen trained in performing arts at The Hub Theatre School, Cornwall, and Desmond Jones School of Mime & Physical Theatre in London. She worked as an actor for 10 years in London and Dublin, mostly in theatre, with occasional forays into film and TV. Movement and voice were always a passion and she went on to train in both yoga-teaching and singing. She continues to perform with local theatre groups as well as bringing her own writing for children’s audiences to the stage.
Helen brings a performer’s skillset of text-interpretation, sight-reading, storytelling and characterisation to the microphone, lifting words from the page and captivating the listener.
