Under the Bright Saharan Sky - John Farnley, reluctant Lord and Peer, agrees to fly Professor Entwistle and Miss Sylvia Armley on their expedition, for the usual fees. It was planned as a straightforward trip to Sudan searching under the Saharan sky for obscure Nubian pyramids where they would hopefully unearth new archaeological remains.
But first they find a desperate woman, a dying man, and the ominous threat of mercenaries left leaderless after the recent colonial wars, mercenaries who are also interested in the treasures that might be hidden within the pyramids. And what could this have to do with the stories of djinn?
Trapped by an aether storm that left their aether flyer powerless, the companions work desperately to find out the secrets of the pyramids as the threat of the mercenaries grows.
Could this have anything to do with the forbidden knowledge of Hammerhand’s creation? Will the courage of John Farnley, the knowledge of Professor Entwistle, and the sharpshooting skills of Sylvia Armley save them? Or will it be the secret locked in the bronze figures?
Out of the London Mist - When news of his brother’s murder reached him, aether pilot John Farnley raced back to his old family home.
While he comforts his bereaved sister-in-law, and tries to sort the family business and holdings, he also wonders why his brother, Lord Nicholas Farnley, had ventured into the cramped streets of the East End of London where he had met his violent end. The slums are a deadly place where life was cheap and murderous thugs preyed on the weak and lost.
Now, in the midst of a thick, London fog, something even more monstrous is waiting in the mist-shrouded shadows. Something that has been brought to life by the refugees crowding Bethnal Green and Mile End. Something his brother might have had a hand in creating.
Aided by his friend, the resourceful Miss Sylvia Armley, his own understanding of the aether lines that flow above London, and guided by the erudite advice of Professor Entwistle, John is forced to find his way through the darkest part of London to avenge his brother and stop whatever aether powered monster is lurking there.

King's Silver - Silvers. They seemed to come from nowhere. Suddenly young women were showing streaks of silver on their skin and in their hair – and with that silver came power.
Annis had heard the stories, of course, but as a peasant on an out of the way farm in Aretan, she had thought that they were nothing more than that, just stories. She was far too busy to bother with such nonsense. Until one day the silver started streaking her skin.
Her meeting with Prince Sigmund and their intense bond started a chain of events that no-one could have foreseen. Annis found herself tossed in the dangerous political currents of the court with the safety of the kingdom at stake.
What could a peasant girl bring to this suddenly unstable world? Annis could bring her no-nonsense practical sense and the power to bring down mountains. But would it be enough?

Cats in the Bible - Everyone knows that there are no cats in the Bible. There’s plenty about dogs and pigs and even the occasional lion, but the housecat is conspicuous by its absence. Besides, everyone who has cats knows that cat stories expand to fit the space available, and anyone who has listened to a cat owner will know that stories about cats can be endless, so perhaps it was best that they were omitted. If you pay attention, however, the Bible covers principles for all sorts of situations, including cats, and it can be reassuring in the face of felonious felines.
Cats in the Bible is a collection of hilarious and true cat stories starring Lyssa Medana’s cats and their furry neighbours as they prove time after time that you can find a Bible verse for every occasion, whether it’s fighting with the vet, stealing food, or the dreaded bath.
This is a fun read for cat-lovers everywhere, regardless of faith, as Shadow, Smudge and Smoke trot briskly from disaster to havoc to cuddles and back, ruling their hapless owners with an iron paw and stealing cheese along the way.
Dinner at Dark - How would Martha Stewart deal with a dinner party where two of the guests were vampires, four of the guests were werewolves, one of the guests was completely unaware of this and one was a housekeeper with very high standards?

Digging up the Past - Karen Price had been looking forward to her wedding day for nearly a year. It had already been cancelled twice, once due to a plague of magical insects and once because of an outbreak of zombies. That was the risk you took when you agreed to marry a paladin, someone sent to stand between the normal world and the threats of the non normal. Of course a wedding never goes entirely to plan and now Karen was getting married while a tv crew were filming an archaeological dig in a village stuffed with vampires, werewolves and more. However everyone was being on their best behaviour, and nothing supernatural was expected to be dug up, so what could possibly go wrong? As ex marine Mike Doyle and vicar Darren King battle with unexpected dark forces, quite a lot can go wrong. From having nothing more to worry about than a dress fitting Karen suddenly finds herself in a lot more danger than she expected.
The Forgotten Village - Karen Price suddenly finds herself whisked from a safe, easy office job and a comfortable, if boring, boyfriend into a village where modern day vampires and werewolves roam freely, the vicar is impossibly handsome and she never knows who or what will turn up at the Post Office. And the night she arrives a murder is committed.
