    Paul Whitehouse and fishing expert John Bailey celebrate the timeless joy of fishing. 
    Paul Whitehouse and John Bailey have been devout fishermen for longer than they care to remember. A hobby, past time or sport – call it what you want – they have felt the pull of the water ever since they were kids and have never missed the chance to set up on the bank and try their luck. 
    In this wonderful book, the two fishermen collaborate to celebrate the rich tapestry that is fishing – from mentors to memories; from philosophy to modern jargon; from watercraft to becoming self-styled ‘Fishing Detectives’. Punctuated by brilliant stories, beautiful illustrations by Carys Reilly-Whitehouse, and recollections from fishing day trips past, How We Fish is the perfect tome for the veteran fisherman or the budding angler – warm, funny and rich in the wonders of the riverbank. 
    Paul Whitehouse's How We Fish is a top-rated non-fiction book that combines elements of autobiography, travel, and comedy. The authors love for nature and their experiences as environmentalists make this book a must-read for anyone interested in fishing or the great outdoors. 
    For fans of John Gierach (All Fishermen Are Liars), Richard Blackburn (Float Fishing), Howell Raines (Fly Fishing Through the Midlife Crisis), Bob Mortimer (Mortimer & Whitehouse), and John Moorwood (The Magic of Fishing).

    The Forest of Neverhome: Where Lost Children Go After Dark is a hauntingly mysterious realm shrouded in twilight, where shadows dance between ancient trees and whispers echo through the dense underbrush. This eerie forest is said to be a refuge for children who have vanished from the world — drawn into its depths by unseen forces once the sun dips below the horizon. Within Neverhome’s tangled maze, time blurs, and the line between reality and nightmare fades. Some say the forest holds secrets to forgotten dreams and lost innocence, while others warn it’s a place where wandering souls are trapped forever. Step carefully — once night falls, the Forest of Neverhome reveals its true nature, and those who enter may never find their way back.
