When she is appointed Tour Manager for Welsh rock group Konquest, managed by Brian Bates – a legendary figure in the music world – she finds herself caught up in the rock star lifestyle.

Bywgraffiad yr Awdur / Author Biography

Rebecca Roberts lives in Prestatyn with her husband and two children – none of whom share her love of rock music. Her hobbies include reading, swimming in the sea, listening to music and walking.

Rock on the Road is an adaptation of her second popular YA novel, Curiad Gwag, and her tenth novel to date.

Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review

'As with many young adult novels, it is a fine read for older adults as well.' – Gwenan Mared, Barn "This is an entertaining, chaotic, and endearing book. It can be read as a Cinderella story, transforming our ragged and abandoned heroine into a goth princess. Looked at in a different light, Sophie is a grafter who has the independence of spirit to survive against the odds, seizing her moment to shine both on and off the stage. Whichever angle the reader prefers, there are sufficient twists and turns to make it a satisfying tale. Through her use of the first-person perspective and her refusal to shy away from difficult topics, the author encourages us to put ourselves in Sophie's shoes, coming to terms with the wounds of the past and forging a better future." — Book Council of Wales report First published in Welsh as 'Curiad Gwag' in 2022.
