Theatre of the Vampires

Vampire bats trapped in a crate break out and escape on the stage of an old majestic theatre. They bite the maintenance; man, he bites back absorbing the power of the forbidden blood. In the process he befriends one of the bats who teaches him how to be a vampire. How to fly, become mist or all those other things monsters do.

 Telepathic creatures, the King Vampire Knows what’s been done so he assembles his army to extract revenge for the death of the prince and reclaim the sacred blood, of the ancients. Make things right and bring order back to the planet.

 Pretending to be human the maintenance man and his coworkers carry on as normal. Doing the kinds of things that theatre workers do. Giving the viewer a sneak peak of what daily life is like behind the scenes working in a theatre.

 All the while preparing for the unavoidable battle with the wicked king and his army of monsters. Their coming and nothing can change that. Creating a one-way path of death and destruction. As they make their way to the theatre of young vampires.

 This story has something new and interesting every time you turn around. Never boring or a dull moment. It has comedy, tragedy, and horror.

 

What sets this story apart?

Surprises from beginning to end. This is not your typical Vampire story. Metaphorical at its best, the telepathy abilities between the Vampire bats are quite unique. It gives a creature besides man dominion over the earth. When a human absorbs the sacred blood, the world is thrown into chaos as the balance of power shifts.

Because of a freak accident. You have these humans who are now Vampires running this Magnificent old beautiful theatre. Bumbling around trying to figure out what has happened to their world.

 With different types of events happening every night, the viewer gets a behind the scenes glimpse of what it would be like to work in the theatre.

And then there’s the General. What a cool pet.

 The only bat to survive the freak accident. Old as he is wise. Teaches the others how to use their new powers. As they prepare for an invading army of monsters that are coming to get them.

With so many unexpected scenes you never know what will happen next, as this web of delight unfolds before you. There is no predicting how the story will end. And just when you think it’s safe to go outside you realized no it’s much, much, worse.

And of course, the back drop is a beautiful majestic old theatre. Loved by thousands as a place of wonderful memories. When word gets out, we are filming there it will spread like wild fire. Press and social media alike. People will want to buy a ticket just because…..

Blood, Fire and Gold

 

Blood, Fire and Gold:

The Story of Elizabeth I of England and Catherine de Medici

In sixteenth-century Europe, two women came to hold all the power, against all the odds. They were Elizabeth I and Catherine de Medici.

One a Virgin Queen who ruled her kingdom alone, and the other a clandestine leader who used her children to shape the dynasties of Europe, much has been written about these iconic women. But nothing has been said of their complicated relationship: thirty years of friendship, competition and conflict that changed the face of Europe.

This is a story of two remarkable visionaries: a story of blood, fire and gold. It is also a tale of ceaseless calculation, of love and rivalry, of war and wisdom - and of female power in a male world. Shining new light on their legendary kingdoms Blood, Fire and Gold provides a new way of looking at two of history's most powerful women, and how they shaped each other as profoundly as they shaped the course of history. Drawing on their letters and brand new research, Estelle Paranque writes an entirely new chapter in the well-worn story of the sixteenth century.

Endorsements:

Exciting and compelling, packed full of tantalising details of diplomacy and court life, Paranque succeeds both in bringing history to life, but also in putting flesh on the bones of these two extraordinary women and rival queens. ― Kate Mosse

A stunning portrayal of two of the most powerful women in European history. In another life, Elizabeth I and Catherine de Medici might have been friends. But politics, religion and a bitter personal rivalry set them on a collision course that would dominate Anglo-French relations for three decades. A fresh, engaging and impeccably researched narrative that brings the characters of both queens vividly to life. Not to be missed. ― Tracy Borman

Excellently told, this thrilling, lyrical story of two extraordinarily powerful women offers the missing piece in our understanding of Tudor England and Renaissance France. ― Suzannah Lipscomb

A smart and stylish portrait of two of Europe's most remarkable rulers, a compelling profile of female power and - that rarest of things - a truly original book about the Tudor period. ― Jessie Childs

Bursting with fresh perspectives, this is a vibrant retelling of a story you thought you knew ― Dan Snow

Blood, Fire and Gold is a treasure house of historical detail that transports readers back to a time when court intrigue was quite literally a matter of life and death-especially for the women thrust into its dark heart. Spellbinding in its scope; cinematic in its rendering. Estelle Paranque is the perfect guide to this world, and an exciting, new voice in narrative history. ― Lindsey Fitzharris

A Fearful Wonder: 6 BC

A new-born king born in obscurity in Bethlehem has escaped the clutches of a madman, only to be threatened by the true perpetuators of a diabolical scheme a millennium old in Nazareth. But a timely rescue by four legendary watchers seeking redemption ensures the survival of the one who has sworn to destroy their own people from the face of the earth. The young family flee along with their unlikely saviors far into Egypt near Naucratis, forty miles upriver from Alexandria on the western-most branch of the Nile.

Here, safe from the threat of a new king of Judea, Ben Jacob and Miriam raise a growing family along with Miriam’s twin sister Salome and her jovial husband Matai. The family soon receive a welcome visit from their friends from Swena, Degu, a merchant, and his wife Adey along with their eight-year-old, adventure-minded son Simon. When Ben Jacob learns of a massive alliance against Rome by a new ruler of the Sarmatian kingdom and a rumored invasion of Jerusalem he is anxious, but is assured by the eight-year-old Yahshua that he will soon be destroyed. The children live a care-free life unaware of their protector’s pasts, or their big brother’s and cousin’s plan to destroy the resurrected monster by the power of a weapon long considered lost.

Heal Thyself

 

Heal Thyself

Here are three stories of broken men. Cuckoldry, childhood abuse, murdered parents. Ben, Nick, and Jason have all been dealt bad hands at one point, leading to present lives they would change if they could. When they are offered a chance to use the past to fix their futures, they grasp it. Who wouldn't do that? Would you partake of that last offered cup, no matter whose hand held it? 

These are stories of the dark costs of these choices. Isn't it true that nothing in life is free? At least, not the things we truly desire. Just ask Ben, a meek graphic designer caring for his brain damaged wife, who escapes into a past that grants him the power he lacks in the present, or Nick, a popular children's TV host who believes his own dark hungers can be stamped out before they begin, or Jason, whose life as a middle-aged hardware store clerk .would be so much better if only his parents had never been murdered ...

Whether it be Liverpool, Glasgow, or Las Vegas, dark forces keep watchful eyes on those that can be tempted, ready to offer those in need of a chance to fix things, to make things right. Some people might ask the cost of a chance like that. Others, like Ben, Nick, and Jason, don't.

Note: this is a VERY dark book, as other reviewers have noted. It is NC17 adult horror, NOT PG13, and the content has been described as "disturbing" and "hard to read" because of that.

 

 

His Strawberry Cupcake:

a Jewel, Oregon Novella

Ruby Ryan

There’s something strange in Jewel, Oregon, and that’s why I love it. So what if there is an abnormal amount of people with really pointy ears and a senior citizen who runs around downtown, naked, every Tuesday? All part of the charm. It gets a whole lot more charming though when Corbin Dresden shows up in town. Suddenly, my panties are wet and I’m dreaming of sex on a motorcycle with a tattooed bad boy. 

Corbin Dresden 

I’m in Jewel to catch the Heartless Killer, but all I can think about is my new neighbor. Her delightful curves are a distraction I don’t need when someone is taking out shifters and ghosts. At least the murderer isn’t targeting humans, so Ruby should be safe…I hope.

Journey to Self: An African Story

How we decide to confront our inner fears is the person we become. This debut African contemporary novel by E.K. Ndanguzi, tells the story of Jonathan's journey.

Jonathan is 30 years old. He is intelligent and hardworking and does everything he is supposed to do but nothing seems to be working out for him. He has a job that pays very little and he cannot get a better one, making it difficult for him to support himself as well as his alcoholic mother and brother who he loves dearly. Why can't he catch a break? He cannot help feeling directionless and uncertain about his future. It’s a feeling he has had since childhood. Then loses his job…

Jonathan's girlfriend, Emilie, is a successful lawyer who comes from a wealthy family. She is also the woman of his dreams. It therefore shocks more than just Emilie when Jonathan suddenly ends the relationship after only six months. It is, however, something Emilie's best friend Beatrice had said would happen. Beatrice also holds on to a dark secret of her own…

E. K. Ndanguzi’s novel has a cinematographic dimension to it which makes the scenes and the dialogues move before the reader’s eyes. This vividly visual and kinematic novel depicts the inner landscape of a character that, as with everybody else, is blinded by fear from his experiences growing up.

No Word Of a Lie:

A completely accurate account of the last 185 years, told through the eyes of the worlds oldest Galapagos tortoise

'No Word Of a Lie' is a comic novel recounting the last one hundred and eighty-five years of history told through the eyes of Jonathan, the world’s oldest Galapagos tortoise. Based on historical fact, his life has been a cavalcade of incident but perhaps due to his advancing years he is a reptile with a tendency to confuse the truth at times, though his heart is always in the right place.In this collection of memoirs he recounts the stand out incidents that have shaped his long life on earth. From his encounters with Hitler in an Austrian zoo, to meeting Charles Dickens in a boozy dockside tavern. Inventing the sick bag whilst taking part in the maiden flight of the Wright Flyer, to being arrested for sitting on an Alabama bus with Rosa Parks. And of course there is his ill-fated appearance on Blue Peter in the 1970s, when he soiled the studio floor.But as well as being a history of the past 185 years told by someone who’s lived it 'No Word of a Lie' is also a meditation on the ageing process. A frank and honest account of the lessons one learns, the clothes from the eighties one must avoid wearing again, and the importance of true love and real friends. A story that is shared before the restaurant bill finally arrives and Death presents him with the true cost of living, a price that means he can at last hibernate in peace for an eternity...hopefully.
