Saddened by the rubbish all around him; a little boy turns into an eco-superhero to save his beloved planet Earth through the concept of reducing, reusing and recycling.

The Amazing Adventures of Gal in Fantasyland

This is a fictitious autobiography of fantasy. The hero faces a rocky road to follow; at all times faith and honour are at stake where he has to trust advice given to complete his quest. Not all advice is good. This book is mainly humour with an atmospherically charged feel of well-being to it. A few high jinxes here and there don't go amiss. The hero starts off thinking that he can run before he can walk; this is never so. He has to learn from scratch. As the journey goes on, he starts to realise this. There are a few surprises and laughs in store especially in the last chapter which holds more reasons why the quest has to be completed.

The Amazing Adventures of Mexican Cat

Between midnight and daybreak, an adventurous Mexican Cat and a curious French hen travel the world on a magical, flying Mexican hat.

On their way they meet local animals, land in far off places, and get to understand the world through the eyes of their new found friends. In this first book we find out how Mexican Cat came to be, how he found his magical hat, and meet Pierre the French hen, who becomes his unlikely travelling companion.

Every story is an exciting journey that takes the children on adventures across the world, giving small educational insights of geography, history, and diversity of culture; all told through the voices of Mexican Cat and his friends.

The Anemone Bowl

The tale of an afterlife.

“If the inability to see other than that which you wish to see can be considered a kind of heaven, then presumably the inability to escape self-knowledge must be one version of hell.”

The ill-fated consequences of happenstance: Born into an English country village community in the 1950s, a young boy is led, through a series of events over which he in effect has little or no control, to take the life of a neighbour’s child, and subsequently his own. And this is the tale, if there can be any, of the subsequent accounting.

The book itself is set in an ever-mutating afterlife that also provides an interim existence before rebirth – an illusory world where, of necessity, it is in large part conveniently repressed memories that hold sway, and where for Eric (if we can suppose that to be his name), each step forward is also leading (with some level of perversity) to the truths of his own personal past transgressions.

The Armadillo

The book concerns the fate of an Armadillo sadly overcome by an earthquake in the Amazonian Jungle.  On arrival at the Pearly Gates, he is weighed on the Heavenly Scales of Justice to determine his future in the hereafter.  Astonishingly, the Scales remain in the neutral position.  Never has this happened save for perhaps the Phoenix back in the time of Zeus.

How is the All-Wise to resolve this problem Destiny has set?  Clearly a Holy Commission is required consisting of Angels of the Celestial Service.  After extensive interrogation of the Armadillo about the living conditions in the Amazon Basin they decide they must go and see for themselves.

Will the Armadillo be admitted to the Everlasting Pastures of Heaven or consigned to the less agreeable environs of Outer Darkness?  

The Arrival of Jessica BunnyDuck

One day, Mummy Duck is returning from the shops when she finds an abandoned baby under an oak tree. Who is this baby, and what will the Duck family do to help her? Read on to find out...

The story behind Jessica BunnyDuck is simple: it is OK to be different. The origins of the story go back over 30 years, when the author was working with Cher and had begun to learn about the Craniofacial Children Association (CCA) which Cher had been actively working on since starring in the film Mask in 1985. When he met the children supported by the CCA during a retreat in Texas, he was in awe at how they supported each other without question and how open and honest they were with each other. This is when he came up with the idea of Jessica BunnyDuck.

‘Much like children with craniofacial conditions, Jessica BunnyDuck deals with being different and finding a place in which to belong.’
from the Foreword by Cher

The Aulverse

One Hell of a Paradise…

Ahh, the Aulverse, a world of wonder and anarchy, of entitlement and squalor; two sides to a very specific coin – the coin of this hellish paradise. Heads, and you might find yourself amongst the royals of the Kingdom of Bovidae; with their fancy horns and proper mannerisms, all groomed beyond perfection with silver spoons crammed so far inside their mouths it’s a wonder they can even breathe. Tails though, and you might find yourself in the slums of the Aphid Tunnels, surrounded by equally as oppressed insectoids, all born into slavery with no hope for freedom. Some have been known to find graces in their ill fate, just as others have gambled away their luck, life in the Aulverse however, just as any life, is what you make of it, so why not turn your back on the chain gang and the ivory towers? Why not venture out into No Man’s Land and peruse the diabolical Grisly Woods – really get that blood pumping? Who knows? You might even get to the bottom of the mysteries of this place, figure out why it is that one even finds themselves here, or how exactly, one might escape.
