In 2008 he has published, in hardback, the scripts for the full serialisation of Malcolm Saville's first children's book, Mystery at Witchend. This has been followed in 2009 by the appearance of the other two Lone Pine serials, Seven White Gates and The Gay Dolphin Adventure.
The three books are hardbacks and and each has a full colour, wrap-around, dustwrapper by Val Biro.

The books are available at £21.50. plus postage.

The first 100 of the trade editions have been signed by Val Biro and by David Schutte and cost £25 each - plus postage.

It was David's knowledge of BBC Radio's Children's Hour which led me to contact him over the chronic puzzle of how many serials had been made from Malcolm Saville's books. I was delighted to find that his knowledge was up to the task and his rapid response solved one of the longest running puzzles about Saville !
The full tale, and resolution, is told in the first edition of The Wise Owl newsletter - which can be downloaded from this site - or obtained by post.
