Somerset and Dorset Railway
PUBLISHER NOTE THIS IS AN UPDATED VERSION OF NO BEECHING, NO MARPLES: The perfect short story for the true Somerset and Dorset rail enthusiast. The ideal stocking filler for Christmas. TAKE A CAPTIVATING RAIL JOURNEY ON A FLIGHT OF THE IMAGINATION on the 17.42 evening commuter service from Bath Green Park to Evercreech Junction, calling at all stations, circa mid 1980s. Sounds a delightful fantasy to glide effortlessly over the Mendip Hills and dream of what may have been. In 1966 steam services were withdrawn from the Somerset and Dorset and replaced with diesel locomotion by British Rail. It opened up a brand new world, journey times were reduced with more frequent trains creating achievable connections to Bristol and London from rural Somerset for the first time. It was now possible to visit London for the day. Enjoy the journey

Euraiya is a lazy gryphon, content to let her traps hunt for her. Roving thieves and bullish curs are her only concerns. But after she fails to save her home from a far greater threat, her world erupts into flames. Broken and half dead, she must claw her way to find a place within a new pride that's poised to exile her with one wrong move. Forced to prove her worth, her warnings are silenced. But with the leaders distracted and a rogue lord poised to take advantage of any weakness, Euraiya must confront them and herself before it's too late. Can Euraiya save what's left of her future before the fires rain down again? Dire is the first novel in a new Creature Fiction Fantasy series that pits gryphons against wyverns in a battle for land and survival. If you enjoyed The Summer King Chronicles or the Gryphon Insurrection series, then this is for you "A fierce, fast paced adventure perfect for animal fiction fans, as well as readers of regular fantasy. I think readers will be excited to explore this new world." - Jess E. Owen, The Summer King Chronicles.

The Lost German Slave Girl

It is a spring morning in New Orleans, 1843. In the Spanish Quarter, on a street lined with flophouses and gambling dens, Madame Carl recognizes a face from her past. It is the face of a German girl, Sally Miller, who disappeared twenty-five years earlier. But the young woman is property, the slave of a nearby cabaret owner. She has no memory of a "white" past. Yet her resemblance to her mother is striking, and she bears two telltale birthmarks. In brilliant novelistic detail, award-winning historian John Bailey reconstructs the exotic sights, sounds, and smells of mid-nineteenth-century New Orleans, as well as the incredible twists and turns of Sally Miller's celebrated and sensational case. Did Miller, as her relatives sought to prove, arrive from Germany under perilous circumstances as an indentured servant or was she, as her master claimed, part African, and a slave for life? A tour de force of investigative history that reads like a suspense novel, The Lost German Slave Girl is a fascinating exploration of slavery and its laws, a brilliant reconstruction of mid-nineteenth-century New Orleans, and a riveting courtroom drama. It is also an unforgettable portrait of a young woman in pursuit of freedom.
