A book full of fantasy, action and humour. This dark, romantic, world building novel has a fast-paced narrative. A thrilling ride, filled with high energy action and sultry, delicious relationships. The story is refreshingly original, it has many twists and turns to keep you reading. Great characters and excellent banter that endears you to them all.  This will excite and entertain you till the very last page.

A brilliant set of stories that are mostly sci-fi with a scary edge (but for the horror fans, you will not be disappointed). Even the simplest of concepts gets twisted and turned by the mind of this unique author. This collection has so many ideas that you wonder how crowded it must be inside the writer's mind. Excellent narration that guides the reader to each exciting final paragraph. You may never look at A.I or pharmaceuticals in the same way again. What does the future hold? If this book has the answers then be ready to run and hide. 

A hard read at times. This is an insightful and ‘laughing through the tears’ account of someone looking after a relative who has Alzheimer's Disease. It navigates the pitfalls and the high points, it is open and honest. It gives hope but also a true representation of the toll this can take on a carer. A must read for anyone looking after an Alzheimer patient, as it is incredibly comforting to know you are not alone. All this is done in a well-written and never condescending narrative. Even if you have not experienced this in your life, it is well worth reading. Your heart will ache but your spirit will soar.

The stories are clearly written by someone that knows the topics they are writing about - this isn’t the writing of a novice mystery crime writer. There are laughs to be had but mostly thrills. An engaging and enthralling read by an excellent trial lawyer and creative author. HARD BLOWS is the perfect travel read, but also shines when you've got a few minutes to kill and instead of mindlessly scrolling you can open up a great crime story to enjoy.

This is a book celebrating the contributions of women through the ages. A guide to their brilliance and their presence, sometimes forgotten or hidden, in history. Short pieces give you the facts and never bore you. It is a book that every woman should read. This will empower you, astonish you and make you glad to be standing on the shoulders of these giants. History does not need to be rewritten it just has to be told, shown and celebrated. Each page is inspiring  and full of discovery. A book that needed to be written and should be revered, as should those amazing women.

Synopsis -

A funny if somewhat unbelievable romp. Girls decide to rob a bank with no real plan or idea on how. It has funny moments and clever little bits. The characters are hard to like, but it can be fun to dislike them. They seem more real for their flaws. This is a simple escape from reality book, read it to while away a few hours and get a few giggles. 

An interesting first book, it leaves many things unsaid. There is so much being set up in this book that the rest will have to be brilliant. The book follows ten angels and their relationships and fights. It has quite a lot of set up of each character, introducing them and giving the reader a full picture of each one. The start is an uphill struggle but now that it has gathered momentum, it can do nothing but gather speed. Keep reading! 

The book of the life of a child who has parents who are abusive and cruel. The journey that takes them to better things and a better place. This book is moving and heartfelt. An honest novel about finding your true self and your voice. Especially when those people that you expect to love and support you are not able to do that and treat you badly. This would be a great help for anyone struggling with finding their identity and thinking they are alone in this big, wide world. You are not alone, there are people that can help. Find them and find your salvation. 

A funny and clever story. Written in a deliciously rich and yet familiar tone. The narrative follows Darren a young man who wants to escape. He takes a teaching job in Korea and finds that life isn't any easier over the other side of the world. Disaster seems to follow him and the reader is caught up in each misstep, hoping for better things to come. This is such a delightful read, and for a first novel, it shows a talent that is blossoming into something rare and amazing.

Funny in a tragic way. This is a look at life as it is for many young people today. The titular main character is lost, he feel abandoned and his life is going no where. Then fate steps in and he has a chance at redemption, a chance to become something. His journey is not all a bed of roses but it will make readers want to know more, to keep reading and to cheer on this young lad who finds hope in places that seem to only offer despair.  

This is a short novel about the postage system but don't be worried by that fact, it is a funny one. The characters, and their attitudes, are very familiar to anyone who has ever worked in an office, large chain or warehouse. This is a clever look at how being ground down by authority and rules can make a man rebel. Well written, with a clear and clean style. It gets to the point and does it well. There are a few references to New Zealand that might take a moment to grasp for those that have never lived there, but all in all it embraces the reader with its charm and clever style.
