Summary

The Wipeout Round sees the return of best friends and amateur detectives, Amy and Jenny. Having seen off two serial killers in as many years, the pair are looking forward to a quiet life, but their hometown of Folkestone has other ideas.
Throwing themselves into the local pub quiz scene, Amy and Jenny are shocked when members of other teams start dropping dead at an alarming rate. Jenny’s convinced they simply died of old age, but Amy’s not so sure and sets out to investigate, hoping to find enough evidence to convince her friend there’s more to it. When Amy gets too close to the truth, she puts a target on her own back. Will she be the next quizzer to meet a questionable end?

    The orc king acts so grumpy. But I can read his mind . . . and it's filthy! 
     
    Did I mention I'm a new witch with telepathic powers? Yeah. It's a lot. Especially since every time I get near Aldronn, the commanding orc either wants to boss me around or bed me. Or boss me around while bedding me. 
     
    Ugh. Why does that have to be so hot? I can never let him know! He'll be even more sinfully arrogant than he is now, and that wicked smirk of his already makes me want to scream . . . or kiss him. Or maybe both. Okay, it's totally both. 
     
    I need to focus on our mission. My magic means I'm the only one who can talk to the goddess and figure out how to free her. We need her help more than ever, because dark fae have started to invade. But the mission means long nights alone with Aldronn, and there's only one tent . . .

    Sherwood Anderson was born on 13th September 1876 in Camden, Ohio. 
    When his father’s business failed the family was forced to move on a regular basis before finally settling in Clyde, Ohio.   
    Anderson, one of 7 children, left school at 14 to take a number of jobs to help with the family finances. These were difficult years. 
    He moved to Chicago in search of opportunities before joining the Army for the US-Spanish War of 1898.  He then entered Wittenberg Academy in Springfield, Ohio to complete his education before moving back to Chicago to take up a writing job. 
    In 1904 he married Cornelia Lane, her family had resources and Anderson was keen, with this family backing, to run a business. 
    The early years of their marriage produced 3 children but a nervous breakdown in 1907 and another in 1912, despite his success as a business entrepreneur, resulted in him abandoning his family and deciding that a literary career would be best for him.   
    A move back to Chicago resulted in a job in advertising, a divorce from Cornelia and marriage to Tennessee Mitchell.  
    That same year his first book ‘Windy McPherson’s Son’ was released and in 1919, his most famous book, ‘Winesburg, Ohio’, a collection of short stories about life in an Ohio town was released. 
    Anderson continued to write short stories, novels and non-fiction but his only true bestseller came with ‘Dark Laughter’.  His influence on writers that followed, from Faulkner to Hemingway, was immense. He also married a further two times.   
    Sherwood Anderson died in in Colón, Panama, on the 8th March, 1941. He was 64. An autopsy revealed that a swallowed toothpick had resulted in peritonitis. 
    His headstone epitaph reads ‘Life, Not Death is the Great Adventure.’

  • Wind River - Mountain Man Jeb Winslow - A Classic Western - cover

    Wind River - Mountain Man Jeb...

    'Wind River', is a tale of the Sioux uprising along the Big Wind River, and in the Wind River Valley, the Indians call, 'Valley of the Warm Winds'. The Wind River is in the territory of Wyoming, and this story is a fictional tale from the year of 1868. The main character, Jeb Winslow is thrust into the survival against the Sioux, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Pawnee and Ute Indians. He is a mountain man who was attacked with two of his friends, both were killed, and he was only wounded but, played dead. The Sioux stole their furs, beaver pelts, horses and a mule, leaving him for dead. 
    He was later picked up by a supply train from Fort Bridger to Camp Nelson, where he later became a scout for the Army. He was, therefore, looking for pay back for his friend's death at the hands of the Sioux. Revenge, if you will. This fictional story is set against the back drop of the Big Wind River, and the Wind River Valley. Jeb's exploits, and his endeavor to survive this tumultuous era in American history, is fanciful at best. Though the story ends without any reconciliation between the Indian and the US Army, it still becomes clear of the dangers, hazards of the life in Wyoming in 1868, and beyond.

    An unprepared witch. A mysterious human. And a quest that will test them both … 
    Hazel always knew she was one of the weakest witches of her generation. For a moment there, she even cared about that status. 
    Not anymore. She’s determined to live her life as a normal human—with exception for the occasional ghost hunting. What can she do if the damn spirits won’t leave her alone? 
    But when she finally settles into a new routine, Hazel receives a message that changes everything: the Lightgrove Coven, one of the most powerful witch covens in the world, grants her a rare chance to join them, but only if she passes a dangerous test on Friday the Thirteenth. 
    At first, Hazel wants to disregard the message. But who is she kidding? This is an opportunity she can’t say no to. 
    Everything is going unexpectedly fine until a human steps in Hazel's way. Sean is mysterious, hot, and inexplicably alluring. Despite Hazel’s best attempts to ignore him, she can’t. And when Sean’s fate entwines with Hazel’s task, it puts everything at risk—not just her test, but also their own lives. 
    Included on the set: 
    The Midnight Test (book 1)
