Deep in the jungle, early in the morning, the animals are all working hard... except for Sloth. He just lies there. Isn't it about time he did  something? The animals certainly think so. But when they tell him the fun really starts!

“Absolutely brilliant little book. Bought this  some years ago for my eldest son, and he still loves it. It really  gives him the giggles and has been so well read that we've had to resort  to taping some pages back on after over-excited little hands got ahold  of them. Highly recommended!”

“This is the Domestic Service, broadcasting to all free peoples, Above and Below. New London can take it...

"Another day, and the Enemy burns valuable resources, to send up another cloud of poisonous gas.  But to what effect?  Every man, woman and child in New London now has a gas mask, and knows how to use it.  Life goes on in New London, as it always has, and always will.  We can take a few miserable stink bombs from below.  We can take whatever the Enemy throws at us.  New London can take it…”

Shroom Raider is a Blitzpunk adventure of vertical savagery, hidden identity, and the bitter struggle for mastery of the worlds above and below. Perfect for fans of wartime adventure, steampunk, science fiction and dystopian fantasy. For middle grade readers aged 9-12.

I'm so happy to see my Shroom Raiders dropping away to a world of doom, danger and destiny. Shroom Raider is an adventure to be enjoyed in its own world and on its own terms, but the echoes of the Second World War are there if that's your bag, and the conflict between democracy, fascism and monarchy - well, that's a debate for the ages.

I hope you enjoy the ride - let me know what you think.  And message me if you're a World War 2 buff, we will have to gather for a geek-out some time...If you really enjoy it, please consider writing a review. Reviews mean so much to an author.

“This is the Domestic Service, broadcasting to all free peoples, Above and Below.New London can take it…”Put out that light, black out those windows and watch the skies, for the Shroom Raiders are coming!  Shroom Raider is Book One of the Vertical War Saga, a Blitzpunk epic that any fan of middle grade adventure (9-12), World War Two and steampunk is sure to enjoy...

For fourteen bitter years the Vertical War has raged between the stalactite nation of New London and their dreaded enemies, the stormtroopers of Neufundland, below.  And for fourteen years Icarus Earthstar has run wild with his street urchin friends, until the day they nearly kill a policeman.  And then Icarus discovers that having a General for a father can’t always get you out of jail for free…

Icarus must choose between jail, and joining the Shroom Raiders – elite soldiers who drop down and carry the war to the Neufundland legions.  In a world without flight the Shroom Raiders fall from above, on fungee cords a mile long, to thwart their enemies’ plans to invade.  For Neufundland is greater, and stronger, and all it desires is to bridge the gap to the stalactite above, and bring the free people of New London under its fascist yoke…

Icarus is still running – from the brutal Sergeant Gus, from an Army family who stand for everything he has kicked against, and from the tragedies of his past.  But in a deadly vertical world where tyranny and freedom clash… a world haunted by the ghosts of the past and shadowed by the terrible weapons of the future… where every truth Icarus holds dear about family, friends and foes can shatter like a landslide… and where the only way out is up or down, he can’t keep running forever…

🍄🍄 D-Day Minus 10… 🍄🍄 

“Ow!”

Icarus felt a great pressure on his temple, as if the most gigantic spot was forcing its way through his skin to the surface.  There was a sharp pricking pain at first, but this quickly dulled as the palps’ anaesthetic took speedy effect.

"Keep breathing", whispered Ethan.

“Okay”, said Icarus, “Keep breathing… keep breathing…”He could feel it burrowing into his head…  Touching his brain…  And then he could feel its mind making contact with his…

Khairul Anam is a terrifically talented artist who, when given a complicated brief from yours truly, really came up trumps.

This was not an easy cover to do, especially as this forges something of a new genre - middle grade adventure fantasy meets World War 2. What do you think?

SEVEN HEAVENS is out! (on Kindle at any rate) I hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think 🤩👍😈👹👺💀👽🎃👑⚡️⚡️🔥🔥🔥

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07Y6NRL32

In an empty Hall, on a bare floor, there lies a Box. A very small Box. And on the Box is written, in several languages, the words: DO NOT OPEN ME What would you do? Would you open the Box, and risk the dangers that lie within? But perhaps it contains a marvellous treasure? Would you walk away, and spend the rest of your life wondering: “What was in it? Did I escape a deadly danger? Or miss out on something wonderful?” Would you cheat? Try to work one side of the Box open, and catch a glimpse of what’s inside? No, it’s not that kind of Box. This Box is firmly closed. Would you ask a friend’s advice? No. There are no friends here. This great Hall is empty. There is only you. And the Box. And the words: DO NOT OPEN ME So… what would you do?

Seven Heavens is the first book in the Loki and Thor Saga for readers aged 6-10. Hades, the High Lord of Hell, is waging a war against the Gods of the Seven Heavens, and they will have to stiffen every sinew of Godly strength, and summon every strategy of Godly wisdom, if the Seven Heavens are to be saved from Hellfire and destruction…

Paperback coming soon!
