Last instalment of "The Jabberwocky Book".

A cover is now being designed for "The Looking-Glass House", the final instalment of my horror fantasy series "The Jabberwocky Book".

Europe is plunged into the hell of World War One. And Alice and Dorothy's old enemy, the Red King, is back. This time he is using the war dead to create his own army of supernatural warriors, determined to take over the thrones of Europe's monarchs for himself and rule all four worlds.

Once again, Alice Liddell from "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and Dorothy Gale from "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" must team up to stop him. Only this time, Alice must learn the truth about the Jabberwocky Book and her connection to it if she is to have any hope of defeating the King.

And that just might mean coming to terms with her own past. Something she has avoided since her first journey out of the world.

The first two volumes of "The Jabberwocky Book" are "The Red King" and "An Unkindness of Ravens", both available at Amazon and Smashwords.

The Red King now available.

It's finally here! The release of my new novel from Permuted Press: 'The Red King'.


A grow-up Alice Liddell from 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' teams up with Dorothy Gale from 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz' to fight the murderous Red King who has returned to wreak his revenge on Alice for her humiliation of him years ago.

And while he's here, he might just take over the throne of England as well.

Shepherd Moon

A sequel to 'Days of Iron'? Really? But it's been ages.

Strange, but true. I am currently writing a sequel to my science-fiction novel about terrorism in the future. It's called 'Shepherd Moon' and the old characters are back with a host of new ones.

Maddy Hawthorn is again caught up in terrorist attacks. First it's the assassination of an Elite nobleman, then a much deeper plot involving her old enemies the Shamah, along with a new terror cell on Mars, the Talon.

I am about 40,000 words into now and going strong.

'Days of Iron' is to be re-released by Permuted Press shortly, and they will also publish 'Shepherd Moon' next year.
