Facets of Faraway

Facets of Faraway (2020)
Gloomy Seahorse Press

Stories about incompetent explorers in strange places; knights, goddesses and viscounts that don't exist (but who are stuck in trees anyway); castles that give birth to baby fortresses; anti-matter monsters that meet and greet their twins; time travellers, castaways and ledge nymphs; and a scientist who believes that all the energy in the universe is draining away through a hole in spacetime and who has a cunning plan to plug the leak!

Available from Amazon and other online bookstores.
