Steve, a squaddie, is on a
physical, mental, and
spiritual path, where guides
help him in his search for
peace and freedom. Steve is
transformed from a squaddie
trying to do the right thing
to a participant in
dangerous counter-terrorism
operations, where rules and
collateral damage are a
personal choice.
Counter-terrorism operations
take him from diving in
Greece and the UK to Syrian
war zones. PTSD, surveillance
- events shocking and sad -
mixed with black humour,
create dilemmas he can't
turn his back on. He tries
to do the right thing, but
collateral damage becomes a
matter of personal choice
where core values are
challenged. In the end -
your decision. What would
you do? Through it all, a
beautiful yacht called
Eleftharia (Freedom),
escorted by dolphins,
reveals life as it could be.

The Elimination event
depicts the UK of 2017 where
for the Black Friday
weekend, any crime is
permitted with no
interference from the
authorities. It's a survival
of the fittest tale. In the
midst of this, Gabriel
fights back at a secret sect
inspired by his newfound
religious beliefs. He loses
Katie and his friend Joshua,
because of this sect. On the
night of the event a young
woman comes knocking at
Gabe's door for
protection and salvation.

'The Grim
Reaper fled across the land
and the antichrist followed.
The full moon cast monstrous
shadows in their wake. They
appeared to float as opposed
to ambling. The long,
curving blade of the scythe
reflected the pale radiance.
The white horse was free of
the Reaper's burden and
strode forward alongside
them. Then a luminous green
fog ascended the horizon.
Its core pulsed, spreading
across the terrain,
shrouding the moon and
casting pitch blackness.

In this
second volume of Don't Fear
the Reaper the author once
again transports the reader
through hidden forces, into
the realm of psychic
phenomena and
manifestations. An absorbing
story with unexpected
episodes of pure horror
brings an end to one of the
characters: 'Death finally
arrived, he feared the
Reaper that wielded the
shiniest sharpest scythe
he'd ever seen. . .' For
readers from the Neath
Valley a sense of place
creates the foreboding
atmosphere and will leave
them looking over their
shoulders! - Aida Birch (a

Hetherington Young Writers
Award) A cracker of a novel.

On the brink
of manhood, Sapphire and
Elias are destined to meet

the Uk to confront each
other, both spurred on by
their own beliefs. The
ultimate and ancient battle
of good versus evil! The
aftermath and dark days will
remain if Sapphire doesn't
fulfil his purpose of life.
He is the hope and the light
in the ever growing worldly
abyss. Who will win? 'With
an obviously high-quality
standard of writing,
Sinclair brings to life the
Grim Reaper.

This is a book of highly

The book is set in a Magical
version of Sussex, a County
where anything can - and
probably does - happen. Here
the little River Flitter
runs down from the High
Weald, through Punnetts
Town, eventually to join the
sea in Seven Sisters Bay.
Strange things happen to
people who stay in
Turnaround Cottage. It is a
converted post mill, which
has lost its sails. Now it
has become a somewhat
mysterious bed and breakfast
venue, looked after by a
newly retired health worker,
Helena Brown. And the Mice.
Don't ignore the Mice -
generations of active,
chatty, cheese-loving,
philosophical Mice. Though
the Mill's main purpose is
long gone, the Winds, North,
South, East and West, blow
the old place around as if
it could still grind corn.
Now the Winds love telling
stories instead and the
place may well have just the
tale you need, whether you
know it or not. So, come in,
come in! Turn the pages and
find your own special story!

About the book: Nick Berry
has again proved to be a
master at story-telling.
Once again he has created a
larger-than-life heroine, a
warrior woman par
excellence, that is both
believable and mythical.
Strapping and formidable,
she embodies the Greek or
Platonic concept of the
'ideal', the perfect woman,
and yet displays all the
natural charm and sparkling
sense of humour of the girl
next door - a brunette of
stunning beauty that one
gets to know very quickly
and irresistibly. This is
the girl-woman that,
undaunted, fights the good
fight against evil-this time
culminating in the City of
Babylon. Full marks to the
author's meticulous
research, for the evocation
of this once impressive
metropolis is stunning and
believable. Zona's encounter
with Nebuchadnezzar is
spectacular and farcical at
the same time, and one reads
with bated breath to see how
our heroine will extricate
herself this time from a
dictator's claws! - Charles
Muller, Diadem Books

This new novel about Zona,
the indefatigable and
charming, robust Princess of
Martial Arts, with her
strapless breast band, adds
to the glowing reputation of
this series of books. I
opened the pages eagerly to
read of her new adventure as
Princess of Medea, and was
not disappointed! This story
adds a whole new dimension
to this fascinating heroine
- a metaphysical dimension,
for she is not just brawn
and witty rejoinders, and
there is a fascinating
revelation of her character.
Read the book for sheer
enjoyment and once again you
will be fascinated by the
irresistible charm and
impetuous energy of Zona
who, refusing to comply with
protocol and abjectly bow
and prostrate herself before
the gasbag King of Medea, is
true to her independent and
wayward nature. She is real
and believable and behaves
consistently with her
stubborn and wilful, but
endearing character! -
Charles Muller, Diadem
Books.

An imposing derelict mansion
stands in its equally
neglected estate. A young
doctor, intrigued by the
house most of her life,
discovers her Great Aunt
Jane may be the only person
who knows the truth about
Leightham House. The great

she knows. The old lady's
story begins in the 1890's
with the birth of her best
friend, Alice, in one of the
fishing villages on
Scotland's East Coast.
Gradually, over many visits
to the old lady, the deep
secrets unfold behind 'The
House with no Roof' with
far-reaching
consequences-but what is
fact and what is fiction in
her story?

This new book in the now
well-established saga of
Zona's adventure is as
exciting and nail-biting as
ever, crammed with dramatic
events, chapters often
ending on cliff-hangers, and
scenes of rapid, sudden
action, with startling
realism of gore and guts as
our heroine decapitates and
disembowels her enemies!
What a superb film this
novel would make, with its
vivid scenarios of action
and flying creatures! Here
also is a sense of
camaraderie, of empathy
between humans and horses -
and between a mythical
cyclops and a fearsome
dragon the size of a Boeing
747-8 to boot! Avid readers
of phantasmagorical
adventures who grew up with
Harry Potter but have
outgrown him might well
welcome these intriguing
Zona books which are in the
same broad genre. - Charles

flawed engineer, Roy, who
rises rapidly in local
government in the mythical
Borough of Brimley. It's
1970 and the northeast of
England is reeling from the
rundown of the mines,
shipbuilding, and railways.
Roy's empathy for the
unemployed motivates him to
generate jobs through
innovative schemes. His
popularity rises due to his
willingness to lecture on
the council's (his)
initiatives, and more
importantly, achieve their
objectives in record time.
With a flair for public
speaking, he is soon sought
after as a speaker,
particularly by female
institutions, where his
energy and passion attract
female admirers. He is also
asked to lecture on solving
cryptic crosswords and finds
an almost magical way to
seduction.

melts away. The new leader

challenges of creating a

providing visionary
leadership, lacking in many
countries on the continent.

The Scottish Cheviot hills
and its amazing wildlife are
under severe threat. A young
couple find themselves at
the heart of their
defence.....
A lone walker strays from
the path, loses his way and
in need of food and shelter
discovers an ancient
shepherd who welcomes him
into his incredible home and
shows him how he has
transformed the bare hills
into an upland paradise.
The walker asks if he can
help and the shepherd
demonstrates how the simple
act of choosing and sowing
the right seed in the right
place can transform the
future, but the young man is
distracted when he finds a
highly valuable hoard of
gold. Rather than confessing
to his find he conceals it
and returning home sells it,
so sealing his destiny.

In the course of ministering
to a member of his
congregation, things go
terribly wrong, and Pastor
Pratt is arrested on
suspicion of a very serious
crime. A whole catalogue of
misery and despair is
subsequently opened,
plunging everyone involved
to depths of pain and
confusion they hardly knew
existed. As those involved
struggle for their sanity,
can Di Penny and the
eccentric Dr Emily help them
find any light at the end of
a long, dark tunnel? What,
exactly, happened in the
Chapel? How do they begin to
make sense of a series of
uncanny coincidences
connected to the Pastor? How
could one man be capable of
such hypocrisy and
unrelenting callousness?
Then there is the secretive
Mrs Veronica Pratt about
whom there is much concern -
with good cause! Although
written with a degree of
humour (the account of a
service in Pastor Pratt's
chapel is hilarious), the
author has nevertheless
tackled serious issues with
intelligence, sensitivity
and insight.

Melanie's marriage to Donald
Stone had broken down. Even
worse, Donald was now living
with her friend, Clare
Marlowe. Although Melanie
had become the successful
owner of an art gallery, her
sad past was never
completely erased from her
mind. Her relationships with
friends and family cools and
an intrusive fear enters the
life of this ice-maiden.
Violence creeps up on her,
and who can she really
trust? Eventually, as in the
Arabian proverb, she had to
decide whether she can sift
the chaff and the grain and
keep what is worth keeping.

It's 1853 and 20-year-old
Ellen Garrow is summarily
married off to an Australian
sheep farmer, Rawley
Winthrop. The Winthrop
household to which she is
consigned is distinctly
unwelcoming, which includes
her new husband. The only
exception is his brother
Joseph, who becomes her only
adult friend. A humdrum way
of life is shattered by a
double calamity, resulting
in the brothers heading off
to the gold fields to try
and recoup their losses.
When after considerable time
nothing is heard from them,
Ellen decides to follow
them... and her adventures
really begin-culminating in
a spell in gaol as a
suspected murderer! How will
she escape the clutches of
the law? Will she ever find
her husband and his brother?
Will the Winthrop sheep
farming enterprise survive?
Who will finally be in
charge?

In a sense
the novel is about two
worlds that are worlds
apart, and which are bridged
together. Not only is there
a bridge between different
geographical regions, but
between people of different
age groups and experiences.
At the end of the day it's
love that is the main bridge
that brings these different
worlds and people together.
And as the author also says,
'There is more than one type
of love, though not always
of the sexual nature!' It's
very appropriate that the
cover of this novel depicts
bridges! There are twists
and turns in the plot that
take the story into some
surprising routes - the main
one being from Marlow in
Buckinghamshire to
Derbyshire in the north. In
fact, you might say that in
many ways the novel is a
dramatized travelogue, and
one that especially
highlights the scenic and
rural appeal of the Peak
District.

discord amongst colleagues

Zona, whose name means
life-a princess of the most
extraordinary vitality and

justice and succour to the

legend have unfolded as this
gifted author conceives it,
had she been there? Helped
by her sprightly sidekick
Xanthia (whose Greek name
means 'yellow' in keeping
with her blonde hair) and an
old flame, her reason for
being there is to fashion a
new start for princess
Helen. In doing so, might
she change history and myth?

Bulgaria. Due to some
unforeseen mishaps his wife
Annabel is accused of being
a spy and sent home to their
house in Watlington while
her background is checked by
MI5. Annabel is guilty of
nothing, other than being
the biological daughter of
Jim Kilbey, Britain’s most
famous spy. It seems that a
jealous god has sought to
visit the sins of the father
upon her, but so has
everyone else. She is the
victim of serendipity, but
also of cover ups, the
duplication of thin evidence
and exaggeration. But she is
also heartless, treacherous,
self indulgent and without
shame.

This is a travelogue with a
difference! Since Henry
James there have been many
impressions of an American
abroad and we have become
used to seeing the world
‘under western eyes’. But
what about seeing the world
from a very different
perspective - not from the
standpoint of an affluent
westerner, or even an
anglicized foreigner like
Conrad, but through the eyes
of an Iranian who has not
had the privilege of taking
freedom for granted. Iran
itself comes under close
scrutiny as the author tries
to come to terms with daily
life in a country where
freedom of speech, freedom
of movement, and freedom to
wear the clothing of one’s
choice does not exist.
Imagine, for instance,
visiting a tourist town for
a holiday break and being
picked up by the police
because you are not a local,
and then inadvertently
finding yourself with a rope
around your neck in a public
execution? The book is a
real page-turner as one
follows the author’s
frequent bids for freedom,
finding himself repeatedly
in a prison cell, punting
across a turbulent river to
enter Greece without a visa,
finding temporary solace and
comfort in the arms of a
young prostitute in
Bulgaria, suffering the
indignity of being treated
as a slave by the
high-minded bosses in Japan,
and running away from the
regular police raids in
Cyprus. But not all is doom
and gloom - by no means, for
apart from the author’s
downright honesty, sharing
and confiding his innermost
thoughts, there is his
irresistible humor that
never fails to see the funny
side in the events and the
people that he describes.
With its unique perspective
of what it is like to be
down and out, and sometimes
affluent too, in Iran and
the countries the author
visits, this book provides
an unforgettable experience.
It is the year 2250 and
Stephen Williams finds
himself in a Great Britain
overrun by zombies and whose
green belt land has all been
concreted over. He is devoid
of nearly all hope until he
meets a nine-year-old girl
called Julie Mayberry and
together they try to survive
in a land where their fellow
humans are all but extinct.
It is a struggle to the
death against the zombies
whose relentless pursuit of
Stephen and Julie leads them
both to learn of the final
hypocrisy that lies beneath
the betrayal of their
country.

The building and repair work
carried out by dangerously
incompetent and unscrupulous
builders, often known as
“cowboys,” is widely
reported in newspapers and
investigations into their
nefarious activities make
popular and
thought-provoking television
documentaries. This
publicity helps to warn the
unwary of the misery,
unjustifiable costs and even
death that can result by
employing unskilled building
workers to carry out
improvements and,
often-unnecessary, repairs
to their homes. The cowboy
builder will always ask for
“cash-up-front” before he
starts to work. Later, he
will ask for more cash,
because he “underestimated
the work and material needed
to finish the job”. If the
householder is unable or
unwilling to part with more
money, the cowboy will leave
the property in such a state
that it is an unsafe
dwelling. This is the story
of two men who take deadly
retributive action against
cowboy builders.

These insightful stories
vividly evoke rural life in
Scotland as seen through the
eyes of the young
protagonist. The immediacy
of such details as riding a
bike at speed, the ringing
of a bell, the rituals of
Halloween as well as the
authenticity of the Scots
language, all contribute to
a powerful re-creation of a
past age. In the easy
flowing style one senses an
artistic sensibility. "Edith
Buchanan's work recalls a
pastoral Scotland before the
age of technology. In the
musicality of the language
one hears an echo of Lewis
Grassic Gibbon, Jessie
Kesson and the Canadian
writer Alistair MacLeod."

Betrayed by their political

cavalry support, faced with
an enemy fresh from their
victory at Killiecrankie
which outnumbered them five
to one, only half equipped
with firearms, and led by a
man whose General assessed
him as "not much of a

the untried three-month-old
Regiment have? This book

Cleland, the first

Shields, the first chaplain,
who played a critical role
in Scotland during the
Revolution of 1689, and were
instrumental in raising the

Viscount Dundee had raised
the Highlands for the ousted
King James, and the story
reaches its climax with the
battles of Killiecrankie and
Dunkeld. Yet despite all the
problems the unblooded
Cameronian Regiment faced,
they fought the battle of
Dunkeld with such courage
and determination that they
won a significant victory,
breaking the back of the
first Jacobite rebellion,
and providing stability for
social and religious changes

The
scene is set in Southern Ontario
during the emergence of the l960's.
In the format of purposely brief
chapters, the theme unfolds a
narrative of events which search and
expose the tangled emotional
alterations of a virtuoso who
desperately yearns to bring her
austere demons to rest. The result
is an explicit non-cliché colour
portrait of devouring pathos and
perverse humour; which correlate and
blend a relationship of
semi-autobiographical sequences with
semi-fiction. From the onset the
twists and turns of her life will
promise the effect of a compelling
and curious realism of empathy; that
will captivate, enthral and follow
the heart of even the most casual

Naseby:
This Phantom Ground chronicles the
lives of the Eachelhursts and the
Wellbeloveds. The intertwining of
past and present play a crucial part
in the lives of all involved. James
Eachelhurst, a Major in Cromwell's
New Model Army, finds a new life in
Wychwood, as does Katherine Anderton
in modern times. Religion and
politics play integral parts of the
characters' lives. A passionate
belief in their cause makes the
opposing armies exceedingly brutal
and bitter foes. There is no pity;
revenge is instant and bloody.
Events occur that change England
forever. The saviour is the deep
abiding love of family life.
Audrey's first book in The Battle
Trilogy, Talavera: Tongued with
Fire, was set in the present and the
Regency period. Naseby, the second
book, is about the period she finds
most fascinating. The outcome of the
English Civil War affected not only
England but, over the course of
time, Parliamentary Democracy
worldwide.

The most ancient of stories,
Homer's Iliad, is
resuscitated by the fertile
imagination of Nick Berry,
woven in with his exciting
swords-and-sorcery character
Zona, whose name means
life-a princess of the most
extraordinary vitality and
youthful energy who brings
justice and succour to the
trapped Helen of Troy. She
may or may not have been at
Troy, but could history and
legend have unfolded as this
gifted author conceives it,
had she been there? Helped
by her sprightly sidekick
Xanthia (whose Greek name
means 'yellow' in keeping
with her blonde hair) and an

Rhodesia, in 1975 and a bloody
vicious civil war is at its height-a
war between the white minority
supported by the black majority and
the ZAPU and ZANU terrorist groups,
supported by Zambia and Mozambique.
Kensington, a small town in the
farming belt, has been the subject
of several terrorist attacks, but
with only a small police force for
defence and the local T.A. unit
having been called up for service on
the Zambia border, the situation
appears grim. Until Iffor Meredith
turns up on a pilgrimage, that is. A
deadly ambush on the "Dix" family
and his escape from a land mine
attack makes Iffor determined to
offer resistance of some form or
other to the terrorists. His
application to join the Rhodesian
Army has been accepted and he sets
about forming a small militia. With
all the fit men already on call up,
who can he recruit from? Then he's
invited to a darts match at the Moth
Club and meets up with the remnants
of the town's Fire Brigade, the men
considered too old for call up. And
so Blue Watch is engaged!

About
two weeks ago, a man came running
into this station asking the
Sergeant here to come at once to the
jetty in Blyth harbour. Two
fishermen had come across a macabre
scene... When the Sergeant and a
constable went with the messenger,
they discovered the body of a man in
a fishing net, half submerged in the
water. The net was tied to the
jetty. It looked as though the man
had got himself tangled up in the
net and had possibly tripped and
fallen into the water...' But was it
an accident, or something more
sinister that took the life of Big
Cam Boise, the loudmouth bully of
Blyth who everyone hated, who threw
his weight about in the 'Fishermen's
Lodge' public house, demanding free
drinks, beating up the women if they
refused his advances, and generally
causing mayhem, forcing the patrons,
including the harmless old codgers,
Tom and Gerry, who liked to ogle the
women and sing drunken songs, to
take refuge in the other drinking
houses of Blyth. As Al, the landlord
of the 'Fishermen's Lodge' said,
something had to be done about this
loudmouth bully. Will Detective
Inspector Luke Forem, from Morpeth,
uncover the true facts? The reader
will certainly enjoy this very
readable 'whodunit'!

Two
women - one Bahraini, one American -
are in pursuit of an ancient
treasure before it is spirited out
of the country by ruthless Art
thieves. The island of Bahrain in
the Arabian Gulf is the setting for
this mystery. It emphasizes two
features of the country: an old
residence in the traditional Gulf
architecture, the Windtower House
and an archaeological site of the
Dilmun civilization dating from the
third millennium B.C. Dilmun was the
pivotal point in the ancient culture
triangle between Mesopotamia and the
Indus region. The mystery evolves
around the theft of a Dilmun
treasure, a young Bahraini woman,
Mona, and her best friend, the
American Faith, who works for an
agency that specializes in the
recovery of stolen Art. It is
Faith's first visit to the Middle
East. She starts out somewhat
naively but soon questions the usual
Western image of the meek Arab woman
as she learns about local society.
Two elderly Bahraini women, one a
traditional herbalist, the other a
sweetseller, feature strongly in the
final retrieval of the treasure.

Two men meet in a pub, one a
psychotherapist, the other,
friend and confidante, a
priest. The former, Frank
Appleton, is fraught with
the pains of unrequited
love. The latter, Fr. Alec,
is increasingly and
disturbingly haunted by the
activities of a serial
rapist - an antagonist who
bears a peculiar grudge
against the Roman Catholic
church. The story tells how
each man is variously
affected by the unfolding
crimes and the powerful
personality of their
sinister perpetrator. This
novel is unusual in that it
eschews a straightforward
narrative and evolves for
the most part through the
letters and diary of the
counselling protagonist. By
adopting the perspective of
'the wounded healer' the
author is able to give added
immediacy to the impact of
the criminal and to explore
as he does so various
themes: these include the
viability of faith in the
modern world, the potential
for evil and madness when
integrity becomes
compromised, and the
endeavour to maintain a
sexual ethic in a secular
environment. Of interest to
all who have suffered love's
troubles, this book will
hold special appeal for
those affected by the
ambiguities of religion and
who yet strive towards a
spiritual goal.

Nick Berry’s tongue-in-cheek divine

novel is a roller-coaster ride
through heaven and hell—a refreshing
change from the Dawkins Delusion,
and provokes some interesting
questions into the reality of divine
existence.
