  Dirt

  If Johnson Farthing thought that life as a poor cart pusher in the coastal town of Wead-Wodder was going to be his lot in life, then he was about to get a rude surprise, and not necessarily a good one.

  Once it becomes clear that his beautiful younger sister has been kidnapped along with the daughter of the Prelate, his life is completely turned on its head. Farthing has to rush across a vast ocean and a huge continent carried by an incredible Sea Dragon and accompanied by a strange magician if he has even a chance to save his sister Rustina.

  And very strangely, neither the rich Prelate nor his chief of police seem keen to even lift a finger.

  Dirt, the first book in a huge, continent spanning saga where dragons are an intelligent, cultured people, magicians cannot destroy mountains with a magic wand and the heroes have no wish to become tyrannical kings and queens.

  But through all the dramatic events, the battles of life and death, Dirt is a place of humour, love and ultimately, the quest to find a home.

  Book one of series one.

  Bloody Dirt!

  On the island of Taken Weasel is arguing Bren-Diath, Mistry and Rusty are thinking about breeding goats and Pree is hiding in Mab-Tok’s house almost fearing to leave. But if she and Farthing want to build on the plans they have been making together all across Bind, then she must face her fears, face her father and they must return to Wead-Wodder.

  Nothing is simple in this complicated world of Dirt and her wishes to depose her father are thrown into chaos as the town is taken over and the threat of war looms.

  Continuing the saga, follow the fortunes of Pree, Farthing, Weasel, Mistry and Fren-Eirol as they make new friends, new enemies and their story unfolds to take in an entire continent.

  Bloody Dirt is the second book Dirt, series one.

  The Fight For Dirt

  Rescued from Exile by Weasel and two new dragons, Pree heads to the Sand Hills in the North of Bind to continue the war there while Farthing and their friends watch the war unfold in The Prelates.

  In this dramatic finale to the first series, the cost of war bites deeply and their lives are devastated as they attempt to push back the threat of the Haftens and the Heinela Cwendrin.

  Hope

  A short novel following the events of the first series of Dirt. The friends are now in southern Bind, but though their lives seem peaceful, a new threat is arising and they look to make their escape once and for all and to find somewhere to call home.

  Includes the free short story “Mistry”, which serves as an important prelude to the second series.

  The Stink

  North London, 1976. The longest, hottest summer on record. The dustmen are on strike, the water is running out and the kids hate their parents. Which bunch of idiots would think it is a good idea to start a band?

  Stench, Aroma, Smell, Haze and Fart might not have the sweetest nicknames in town, but these five have just finished their O-Levels and are on a mission to take their fledgling little band and get themselves a half decent gig. Songs are good, playing is getting better, Smell's voice is wicked, so what could possibly go wrong?

  Aside from the National Front, smelly teens, the lead singer falling in love with the drummer and a double murder. But this is 1976. It is not only a different decade, it is a different planet.

  If you were a teen back then, you will lap up the nostalgia. If you are a teen now, you will wish you had been there. The Stink. It was what the seventies were all about! Out Now.
