Lupa

An exciting new novel is in the burner. Look for "Lupa" by Marie Marshall.

Other updates:

We are working on the release of "Forest Circle Quest" by Leslie Hyla Winton Noble (one of his fantasy cycle of Magic Circle sagas);

"Not Another Scale Book!" by Alan Solomon is now available;

and "Freedom Fighter" (The Solar Wind III) by Lyz Russo is also on the soon-to-be-released list.

Our bookshop has received a new, trimmer look. Another upgrade is that each book now has its own page. The page includes reviews and comments from readers, as well as a blurb and a link to a preview (in most cases), and where applicable, links to the other sequels in a series.

This was an important upgrade as our bookshop is growing and the page was growing beyond reasonable proportions. This way, too, one can "like" and "twitter" each book specifically.

Invitations to our authors: Do encourage your friends, and Facebook and Twitter audience, to visit the site and preview your book. You know how to email a url... :)

You will also find a number of CDs in the CD shop; probably more than you expected to see there. This is mainly thanks to our prolific composer of neo-classical music, Leslie Hyla Winton Noble. You will also see the CD by Iain Rossouw, dealing with environmental "eish-shoes".

Have fun!

Projects, projects

"Regina" has a preview!! You'll like this one.

Welcome to 2012.

We are currently chiselling away at the website, working on giving every book its very own page. This is going to facilitate site navigation quite a bit and it also means that you can zoom in on one specific title, if that is what you are looking at. The bookshop is becoming more compact - a must with more titles being added.

We have a number of projects in the pipeline, some of which are announced on "Coming Soon" and some which are not.

I tried to paste some of the new layout for the book pages in here but Blogger doesn't seem to handle the formatting too well, so instead I'll delight you with a few pictures to click on. And some that are not clickable.
