Book Synopsis: Adam Scott was an average college student with average dreams, living an average life. All of that changed when he met a pair of stranded visitors from a distant, undiscovered land, where magic is real and Sorcerers are masters of it. When Adam's new-found friends discover an outcast of their own kind living among the humans and plotting to return to their land with an eye toward vengeance, the three of them must find a way to thwart the Sorcerer's plans, and to return the stranded pair to their home. Later, having temporarily halted the Sorcerer's scheme, and seeing his stranded friends on their way home, Adam unexpectedly finds himself transported to their mysterious homeland, and facing a final confrontation with the exiled Sorcerer - in a land where humans are feared and unwelcome.

Book Synopsis: Tully's great-great uncle Michael was hanged for murder more than a century ago. According to family lore, he was attacked in a pub - accused by his attacker because as an Irish immigrant he was taking work from locals. At a time when anti-Irish prejudice was rampant during an economic depression, he never stood a chance of justice. The bare bones of the story are more or less 'true' but have been fleshed out using the author's imagination. Michael's family emigrated from County Donegal in Ireland to Tyneside in northern England sometime in the 1890s. They had planned to go to America but their ship never turned up in Cork. The title, On an Alien Shore, is taken from James Horsley's poem 'An Emigrant's Sigh'. Although these sad events took place long ago, the themes are very relevant today, with so many refugees, asylum seekers, 'economic migrants' and resurgent racism. "On an Alien Shore presents a vivid background of the poverty and squalor of late 19th century Tyneside with its slums, its appalling working conditions, its pubs and prisons. Against this background plays out a well-told story of romance, family love and pride. It is in marked contrast to most period melodramas because of its emphasis on the empowering role of the union movement. Most of all, On an Alien Shore stands as an indictment both of unthinking racial prejudice and of laissezfaire capitalism. In both these regards it is not only an insight into history, but a monitory tale for today." - Tim Thorne

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book Synopsis: A return to the world of This Alien Shore, set in the second age of stellar colonization. When deep-space travel altered the genes of the first interstellar colonists, Earth abandoned them. But some of the colonies survived, and a new civilization of mental and physical 'Variants' has been established, centered around clusters of space stations known as the outworlds. Now the unthinkable has happened: a suicide assault has destroyed the life-support system of a major waystation. All that is known about the young men responsible is that in their last living moments they were receiving messages from an uninhabited sector of space, and were playing a virtual reality game. Two unlikely allies have joined forces to investigate the incident: Ru Gaya, a mercenary explorer with a taste for high risk ventures, and game designer Micah Bello, who must find the parties responsible for the attack in order to clear his name. From the corridors of a derelict station lost to madness to an outlaw stronghold in the depths of uncharted space, the two now follow the trail of an enemy who can twist human minds to his purpose, and whose plans could bring about the collapse of outworld civilization. Praise for C. S. Friedman: 'In interweaving the many threads of her narrative, Friedman has created a potent metaphor for the toleration of diversity' – NEW YORK TIMES 'In many ways, C. S. Friedman's work reminds me of William Gibson's – unique settings, complex and fascinating (though not necessarily likeable) characters, cool ideas and technology, a smart and savvy style' – FANTASY LITERATURE 'There is so much of interest here and rather than spend paragraph after paragraph describing it all, which I could easily do, I will simply tell you to read it. It is a great book and well worth your time' – WORLDS WITHOUT END

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book Synopsis: Best-selling novelist Catherine Jinks confirms her talent for wonderful story-telling in this beautifully researched and absorbing historical novel. With romance, hardship and the strength of the human spirit, Jinks tells the story of Dorothea Brande who, in 1814, accompanies her soldier husband to the brutal colony of Sydney, Australia. I am cast upon this unfriendly shore, dearest Margaret, and without your abiding affection feel utterly exposed to every blow that fate might bestow on me. How I long for you. How I long for England. How wretched I am, here at the outer limit of the world! In 1814, Dorothea Brande leaves the quiet harmony of her Devonshire home and accompanies her officer husband, Charles, to the colony of New South Wales. Here she endeavours to escape the harshness of the landscape-and the appalling brutality of common existence-by cultivating an English garden with the help of her convict manservant, Daniel. Together, in the creation of this garden, two bereft and disoriented people find a new strength and a special kind of refuge. But while Dorothea begins to adapt to the unforgiving environment, her husband is increasingly destroyed by it-until at last they stand on opposite sides of an unbridgeable gulf. Absorbing, deftly handled and beautifully written, The Gentleman's Garden is a wonderful, romantic novel of a woman's difficult personal journey in a time of a developing Australian society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book Synopsis: Three hundred years had passed since the Tyr conquered the people of Earth as they had previously overcome numerous races throughout the galaxy. In their victory they had taken the very heart out of the human race, isolating the true individualists, the geniuses, all the people who represented the hopes, dreams, and discoveries of the future, and imprisoning them in dome colonies on planets hostile to human life. There the Tyr, a race which itself shared a unified gestalt mind, had left these gifted individuals to work on projects which would, the conquerers hoped, reveal all of human kind's secrets to them. Yet Daetrin's secret as one no scientist had ever uncovered, for down through the years he had succeeded in burying it so well that he had even hidden his real nature from himself. But, taken into custody by the Tyr, there was no longer any place left for Daetrin to run, no new name and life for him to assume. Now he would at last be forced to confront the truth about himself—and if he failed, not just Daetrin but all humans would pay the price...
