Interview with Author – Ken Magee
About Ken Magee: Most folk believe that technology rules their lives. They're wrong. Dark conspiracies and ancient magic actually dominate this planet.

Interview with Author – Paddy Bostock
About Paddy Bostock: I've been writing all sorts of stuff - poems, songs, newspaper reviews, translations and academic pieces — for many years, but only ever played around with full-length novels for my own amusement, never thinking I'd get anywhere. Nonetheless, if some of the fun I've had writing the books can be shared with readers, I'd be happy. They employ a number of different genres--mystery, suspense, thriller, action--but break the rules a bit, so hopefully I can raise a few laughs … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – Paddy Bostock
Bunny on a Bike by Bev Spicer
This book is bargain priced from 09/14/2014 until 12/31/2014 "A great insight into 80s London, attitudes to women and life as a trainee bunny, plus smatterings of celebrities, this book captures that careless sense of youthful immortality perfectly.

Lord of the Garden by Adrian Pelzer @AMPelzer
There was once a couple who lived in a garden they'd been put in charge of. They were tree-huggers, vegetarians, and off the grid; they walked with God in perfect peace. . . until they were enticed by a “precious” piece of fruit. Thus follows a tale of betrayal, lust, faith, redemption, courage, and . . . total absurdity. This is the first volume in a series of hilariously re-told Bible stories called The Bible for Aliens. There will be more to follow. Targeted Age Group:: 14-45 What … [Read more...] about Lord of the Garden by Adrian Pelzer @AMPelzer

Young cartographer Myrah discovers someone has been interfering with history. More worryingly, it looks like it might well have been her. 'Unreliable Histories' is a comedy that pokes gentle fun at the cliches of the fantasy genre. It is guaranteed free from lovelorn vampires, arcane prophesies and ancient-but-recently-awoken evils. It features no Chosen Ones, no boy-wizards and hardly any murderous demons at all. Instead, it follows Myrah and her only-sometimes-intrepid friends as they … [Read more...] about Unreliable Histories by Rob Gregson
