Journey to the West is truly an odyssey into the author’s mind as he seeks to discover who he is and where his place is in the world. I found it fascinating how life events came together to propel the author along a journey of awakening, and I felt the story well worthy of publication, […]
Out Now – Double Indemnity: Richard Zappa
Double Indemnity is the third book in the Jo Crowder Detective Series. When I first read it on submission to us for publication, I was delighted to find that the series keeps getting stronger and stronger. This is not a traditional who-done-it story. It’s a can-the-detective-catch-the-bad-guy story, but though we know who the bad guys […]
Out Now- The Alien Who Woke Earth: Remi DeWitt
Sometimes a book needs rebranding with a new angle. In this case, the name ‘God’s Gift’ was problematic in that it suggested a religious book – which it isn’t. The only mention of God in the story is a young girl thinking that an alien is a gift from God. So we hope we’ve set […]
Out Now- Whiteout: Mary Mandolin
Releasing today is the romantic suspense novel Whiteout by Mary Mandolin. From Tahlia: When I first read the manuscript of Whiteout, I was impressed by the quality of Mary Mandolin’s writing, her ability to create realistic and fully fleshed out characters, and the way she built tension and maintained it throughout the book. Just when […]
Out Now-The Indenture of Ivy O’Neill: Diane Helentjaris
When Diane submitted this manuscript to me with a view to publication, I simply couldn’t stop reading it. Ivy is a strong character, easy to relate to, who develops even greater strength as the story progresses. I found that I cared deeply about her and her brother. The story revealed something I never knew about […]
Out Now – A Date To Die For: Gaylene B. Corben
When A Date to Die For came to me for consideration for publication, I was surprised and delighted at the quality of the work and snapped it up for publication right away. The depth of characterisation sets this story apart from countless other who-done-it-style stories. The author skilfully teases out the clues, and yet, when […]

Out Now – Grandpa’s Horse & Other Tales: Ed Lehner
Description This collection of short stories contains embellished memoirs, fanciful flights concerning climate change and the Covid epidemic, and includes stories of romance and mystery. There is no rhyme or reason or any thread that would unify them. They are, rather, a loose group of random stories concocted over the span of the last five […]
The Almost Human Series Backstory – Guest Post
I’m often asked what the backstory is to my Almost Human Series. Recently, I wrote a short collection of some of my stories. In one way or another, they’ve worked their way into my novels, Almost Human, Becoming Human and Beyond Human. These experiences served as the foundation on which I built my characters and settings. The plot […]
Out Now – Beyond Human: Kenneth L. Decroo
When author Kenneth L. Decroo presented me with Beyond Human, the third in the Almost Human series, I was, once again, delighted with his ability to weave a suspenseful mystery around the theme of the possible existence of human/chimpanzee hybrids, how they might behave, and who might be interested in such creatures. The author’s experience […]
