Takakush-Genus Magica Book 1 by Raine Reiter

Evil stalks the rainforest.

When Professor Elena Lukas returns to her cosy Pacific Northwest hometown with a broken heart, she’s plunged back into the fate she tried to escape. Like her mother and grandmother before her, Elena must now dedicate her life to a powerful ancient Lithuanian goddess. Although she is prepared to live as a priestess hiding in a contemporary tourist town, she arrives to find that a series of so-called animal attacks have terrorized her forest.

With the help of a handsome detective from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Elena uses her expertise in invasive and endangered species to identify that these are no normal animal attacks. The woods are stalked by a dark, mystical creature bent on ravaging the area in an attempt to quell its insatiable hunger. When her little sister goes missing, Elena realizes that the beast can only be vanquished if she is brave enough to face it in-person, embrace her identity as a high priestess, and expose her powers to the man she cares for. 

“A fantastic tale that weaves a spell of ancient mysticism and modern charm.” –Tim Marquitz, Author of the Demon Squad series, The Enemy of My Enemy series, and more

Living with cerebral palsy is enormously difficult. But what if you never knew you had it?

This is the incredible story of Ilana Estelle.

Born the second of premature twins, an hour apart, from a young age Ilana knew she was different, but for all the wrong reasons. A child of the 60s, Ilana experienced first-hand the way that disability was, at the time, so often brushed under the carpet, not spoken about. Her constant physical and mental struggles made her feel isolated, alone, frustrated, and misunderstood. It took 46 years for her to find out why.

Part memoir, part motivational guide, Cerebral Palsy: My story is Ilana’s open and honest journey from an angry, confused child, knowing something was wrong, not knowing what was wrong, what her disability was, or that there was a diagnosis – to the ‘real’ her – a courageous woman using her experiences and lessons to create inspiring messages about mental and physical health, resilience and change.

MEDUSA’S CHILDREN by Keith Antar Mason

From performing in the alleys of LA, Keith Antar Mason recounts his experience of getting on stage at the ICA in London with The Hittite Empire Performance Art Collective, an all-Black Intergenerational Men’s Cultural Elite.

We are the nightsticked 

Billyclubbed 

Strangeways 

Strangefruits 

Survivors 

Every summer is a Red Summer 

Medusa’s Children is a one voice rant, a prose memoir, a wish poem. 

This is a memory written in 

Ashes and Fog 

Our Life on Mars 

Stone cold word killers 

Spitting Knowledge and Truth 

Mother Medusa 

Make us 

Subliminal Seducers 

MEDUSA’S CHILDREN will be published in October 2020

Book Blitz: Falling by Chris Bruce

1969, Italy. Change is in the air. A year has passed since students and workers took control on the streets of Paris. Young people everywhere now believe they can improvise a new social order.

           Adam, a young English art student, runs into Maria Pia, a photographer — little suspecting the profound consequences their meeting will soon have.  She believes self-expression can have no limits. What does it mean to be absolutely free? Casually manipulative, she recruits Adam and his two friends — Laura and Danny — to take part in an experiment where all restraints are removed. But the flimsy ties that hold the self together can unravel. 

           ‘Falling’ takes the reader back to a unique time of revolutionary excitement, for a psychological drama that is both poignant and comedic as it delves into what truly ‘makes a man’.

Extract Post: Being Alert! By Charlie Laidlaw

Being Alert! begins in January 2020 as the British prime minister, Winston Spragg, first learns about a new illness that seems to be centred in a city in China that nobody has heard of.

Following in a long tradition of British satire, the book populates Downing Street and Whitehall with an inept prime minister presiding over a dysfunctional government as it deals with an existential threat that rapidly becomes a national crisis.

Like satires before it, the book uses humour to paint an uncomfortable picture of a government seemingly as concerned about justifying itself as working to protect the country.
