  The eagerly anticipated sequel to DINOSAUR 
  After their leader is taken, the remaining crew of the USS New World are in danger of losing heart. Freshly minted Captain Jill Baines feels the loss more acutely than anyone, yet she must somehow bring them all together to face the increased threat of an enemy whose power is growing by the hour. Left with just one course of action – attack, and quickly – her courage and ingenuity are tested to the limit while the deadly dinosaurs of Cretaceous Gondwana prove an unexpected ally. 
  Meanwhile, political rumblings and further treachery at home threaten to crack the fledgling human society into pieces, forcing Jill Baines to choose between the lives of the people in her care or that of her best friend. Tim Norris proposes a daring plan to attempt both, which sets him on the darkest journey of all… alone. 
  “A highly suspenseful time-travel adventure series, combining a clever mix of detailed prehistory and history throughout – not to mention some great bad guys. The twists and turns really keep you guessing, while the darkness and humour really keep you reading. Not to be missed.” 
  Black Sheep Books 
  "With book two in the New World series, Stephen Llewelyn picks up right where things ended after DINOSAUR, roaring to action in REVENGE, and it’s another phenomenal tale. While DINOSAUR took time to set the world, the plot, the characters in motion, REVENGE wastes little of it, setting the reader off on an adventure like you’d never believe. It will get your adrenaline pumping as new action sequences burst to life, and it’ll give you chills when each new surprise comes your way. This series is one you won’t want to miss, and while you’ll certainly want to start with DINOSAUR, you’ll no doubt want to stick around for this tale."

  After a rough assignment catching people out to destroy battered women's shelters, Anne needs a break. Being assigned to observe operations at Common Grounds Legal Clinic seems like a cake assignment. Xander Finley, the head lawyer, is a friend of Joan. The clinic is already supported by the Arc Foundation, so Arc is simply expanding its support. 
  But then Anne is carjacked, and her guard dog, Argus, is shot. Off balance, worried about Argus, and wearing borrowed clothes, things keep getting worse. Face-to-face with someone from her painful past and feeling antagonism from Xander's employees, Anne stumbles into one problem after another. Her frustration grows when allies became enemies, and she is accused of entrapment and then attempted murder. How come prayer is her last resort, when it should have been her first reaction to every problem?

  When top Hollywood star and bad girl Clarise Chalmers met a writer of trashy military science fiction William Moreland by chance in a bar she knew he was not her type at all. He was good looking but not of the film star standard she had come to expect and certainly not mega-successful with a top-range sports car. Anyway, she had a boyfriend - another top star and heart throb for millions of female fans. But Will made a lot of sense suggesting solutions to problems that had been plaguing her so she hired him as a business consultant warning him that their relationship would be strictly professional. There were a lot of wolves in Los Angeles of the two-legged kind, both those who wanted her body and those who wanted her money. Will could help in dealing with fee-hungry consultants of all kinds and fending off public attacks from former high-school friend turned nemesis, singing star Connie Leighton. If Will got any romantic ideas he would be shown the door. Fresh from a disastrous relationship with an aspiring actress Will was happy to take the star at her word and was glad of the job. However, Clarise should have taken more trouble to warn herself against getting romantic ideas.
