POET & ARTIST RADICAL RHYMES' EMBERS OF
OUT NOW!
Radical Rhymes is a recovering academic who turned to poetry and art to ensure his continued survival. He is a Cornishman living in Wales and enjoys reading, music and most sports. He was recently described as eccentric, which is probably the kindest way to describe it.
His debut poetry and art motivational book Embers of Hope will be out in time for December & Christmas.
Not only as an ebook, but paperback, and a beautiful hardback edition available soon.
​
We the publisher, and the author Radical Rhymes in particular would like to thank people so much that took the time and effort to give feedback on a recent cover problem. It was a very evenly split poll about 55% going for the one we all chose in the end. Though we took on a lot of the feedback the red cover did "pop" more we felt the orange complemented the author's art and that is the main thing to us, making the author's work look as good as possible and to have a great relationship with author and reader alike. Everyone that e-mailed their opinion might get a wee nice surprise in their e-mail on publication date, so watch this space.
THREE WASTED CHANCES - OUT NOW
THREE WASTED CHANCES IS OUT NOW
Vanessa Krauss is one of our most prestigious authors and we are so proud to now publish her complete FATALITY SERIES
~~
Horizons Corporation is a distant memory, but the damage they wrought remains. Humanity has seen the Forces for what they are, and they are suffering. Fatality is tasked with healing the injured and dying nature gods, but everywhere she turns, something is watching, out to get her.
Worse, Void has announced his return. The old gods are back, and they demand sacrifices. How can Fatality save everyone when she might not be able to save herself?
The asteroid is coming.
Three Wasted Chances is an action-packed dystopic mythological/sci-fi story and is the third and final novel in the Fatality series.
~~
Vanessa Krauss second novel in the popular FATALITY SERIES: DUALITY OF FORCES was published in November 2022.
~~
It has been months since the Phase II incident at Hidden Horizons. Acid Trip is dead, Fatality is missing, but the Horizons Corporation remains. The organization has all the data they need to bring them closer to their goal… and the three remaining Aons to help them accomplish it.
Lexicon is tasked with exposing the Forces and making the rest of the world see these gods for what they are. She yearns to be free, like her sister, Fatality. But one way or another, Lexicon must follow her escape plan.
Heads will roll, many may die, anything to get the cursed control chips out of her skull and live a life away from the corporation that’s enslaved her all this time.
Duality of Forces is a thrilling dystopic mythological/sci-fi story and is the second novel in the Fatality series.
~~
Vanessa Krauss debut novel in the FATALITY SERIES: ONE AON FATALITY was published in May 2021.
~~
She was written off as dead. Fatality as she was known, not befitting a proper name was an Aon. They are created for one reason – to eliminate Forces. Literal gods, embodiments of nature, obstacles in the way of Horizons’ goals.
This Aon wanted to be more than the Horizons Corporation’s failed experiment.
“We are made for the greater good.” Her brother had said.
When she receives a one-way ticket from the Moon to planet Earth, she sees hope.
All her existence Fatality had been told that her functions were to hunt and kill. She wanted to be more than an assassin.
Set in the year 2204, this is a unique dystopic mythological/sci-fi story of creation versus creator where science and nature, the familiar and the fantastical, clash.
“One Aon Fatality is a thought-provoking, character-driven novel that encourages the reader to contemplate perspectives outside of their comfort zone. Highly recommended!” – Midwest Book Review

The collection won’t be self-righteous or in any way preachy. We are aiming for an entertaining, educational, and enlightening tone.
We’ve already had some top writers submit work and agree to submit stories, poems, and art but we would really like more. The more the merrier as they say.
Actress, Katy Manning, probably most famous as Jo Grant alongside Jon Pertwee’s Doctor Who, has agreed to write the foreword for the book and appear on the front cover.

THE MAN WHO HAD EVERYTHING
ON SALE NOW
The second novel by D.L. Hynes is on sale now.
If you time travel into the past, will the future stay the now that you know?
The Man Who Had Everything by D.L. Hynes, the second historical fantasy/time travel novel in her popular series, explores this while plunging the reader into a real-life murder case a century old.
In this engrossing puzzle, time-sleuths Val and Marv return from their last adventure only to learn two friends they just left in 1971 have disappeared into 1921 - with an elderly ex-showgirl who may be a killer. Of course, a lot of people might have taken out silent screen director William Desmond Taylor - from his famous lovers to their famous exes, from stage mothers to blackmailers. But Val and Marv can’t stay in the present knowing their friends got famous in 1922 - before one got killed and the other vanished into history.
After all, history is written by the victors, and our heroes won’t give up on their friends without a fight – even if that fight is with not only Jazz Age killers but time itself.
OTHER BOOKS BY D.L. HYNES
D.L. Hynes' first novel The Man In 18E is still on sale:
In 1971, a middle-aged man carrying $200,000 cash (a cool million and a half today) parachuted out of the airplane he’d just politely hijacked.
Then he vanished into thin air, launching the legend of D.B. Cooper.
Feisty but disillusioned with modern-day life, Valerie Valera becomes fascinated and obsessed with the man and all things 70’s, thinking she would give anything to travel back and find out exactly what happened.
Time travel is a funny thing, and some dreams do come true, so when Val, along with her attractive, affable, intriguing neighbour, Marv, are yanked back to just days before the skyjacking, they make it their mission to find out what’s really become of… THE MAN IN 18-E.
This quirky debut time travel novel by D.L. Hynes is an engrossing, humorous adrenaline ride you’ll want to go back and read again and again.

Matthew Harvey aka @Rustydoodles86 on Twitter loved to draw cartoons as a child sadly his great love was only halted when he left school. “Get a proper job” school advisors would say!
But back in 2020, like a lot of other people, he had quite a lot of free time on his hands, so he started drawing again. Through the power of social media, he started getting some good advice and great feedback.
He likes to make people smile with his art and loves taking them back down memory lane.
“If someone sees my cartoon characters and smiles then that’s enough for me,” Mathew says.
We hope you like his work and hope it brightens up your day and look forward to seeing more in his first cartoon character nostalgia book coming soon.
