I would like to thank everyone who bought my books over the last month. It is staggering in a way but in one single month I sold nearly as many books as I did the entire of last year!
As a teaser / treat I have decided to give you a sneak peak at what is coming and I hope the covers give you an insight.
Here is the insights in to what is coming...
Symbiotica - Spectres of our Past
"Everyone came from somewhere and regardless of who
they are today, their past is always looming. As Flip and Koli return to Earth
following the events in the Proteus Natural Selection saga, Flip is surprised
to be approached by her old Editor from the paper she worked at as he bring her
troubling news. Her final piece before being thrown in to the Alphian's world
had exposed a scandal in the halls of power and landed a Senator in deep
trouble, with corruption charges being levied against him. He warns her that
there is a contract out on her life, the Senator have absconded and gone in to
hiding, out for revenge. Flip is dismissive considering the new world she now
lives in, but leaving the restaurant they are gunned down.
Meanwhile in Tokyo, Tie is troubled when she receives a text
message from her mother. Her father is in a serious condition in hospital and
her mother is pleading with her to come home and make peace, something Tie
finds ironic considering they disowned her after finding out she was gay. Tie
decides to travel to Hong Kong to deal with her parents and try to put the past
to bed, but it soon becomes apparent that things are not quite what they seem
to be.
With Norcee arriving at the Olympus Spaceport delivering
secretive equipment, Sellie has decided to leave her past behind her as with
Sarah, Norcee and Ryal they head back to the Foundry. Sellie is quitting her
job and packing her things up. Her world now revolves around her young friend
and she has found the place where she fits in, but things take a dark turn as
Sarah snaps, bitter and angry over what happened to her. She is out for revenge
on the gang members who put her in a coma and she is going to tear their world
down single handed if necessary.
Will Tie get to the bottom of what is really happening with
her family, can Sellie stop Sarah's hate fuelled rampage of vengeance and can
our friends hope to stop Koli from finding and killing the Senator who has
brutally cut down her best friend and partner?"
Dystopian Detective - The Kakoi Riddle
"There is a dark cloud hanging over the city of
Manchester as Ella and her team get to grips with the reality that a menacing
alien intelligence is at work in their city, the only lead they have is a
mysterious urn that has disappeared from the Manchester Museum.
When a leading Professor of Archaeology is found dead, it
seems like just another case of suicide however for Ella and her team, this man
was the only prominent link to the mysterious urn. This Professor of
Antiquities is one of the world's leading researchers in ancient artefacts and
his prize research item was an item simply known as the Kakoi. On its surface
are indecipherable markings that Ella recognises as being the Apeyron language.
Contacting Beletrix and sending the picture over, Tath confirms her suspicions,
but the photographs are unclear yet he translates a fragment of it which
worries Ella. The fragment reads 'Lest the unspoken escapes and infects that
which is Endless'.
Investigating the Professor death, Ella and her team must
race to try and locate this Kakoi and the terrible truth it may hold that would
threaten her home and perhaps the world.
Will Ella find the truth behind the Professors death or will
a terrible darkness be unleashed on Earth?"

expected to be as they are now stranded in the distant past of the Aemon's home
world shortly before the end of the Darkening, faced with an apocalyptic world
at war entering its final days. It seems that Anchee has a plan for them, a
plan that somehow involves his younger self and the Prophecies of Pentalore. Travelling

Symbiotica - Fallen Gods
"With Flip recovering at the Foundry Koli has to take
time to come to terms with what she has done with her friend's help, however
when Brie and Director Blyth DeVeer of British Intelligence arrive at the
Foundry, things are about to take a very dark turn.
The President of the United States has been growing more reckless,
some may even say he is developing a god complex and he is fully aware of the
power within his grasp. With everyone having been distracted, he has put his
plan in to action and his goals are terrifying.
A full battalion of troops with heavy ordinance is descending
on the Foundry with the goal of capturing them all, imprisoning them and
stealing their technology. Initiating the lock down protocol, putting a shield
up around the Foundry the teams only option is to travel to the Olympus
spaceport to garner the support of the United Nations.
Arriving they find this attack goes far further, Olympus
Island under siege from the American fourth fleet demanding Olympus turns over
their Avoran fleet to the President. Now with the shield grid installed protecting
the island they are safe, but they can't escape and considering the power they
have at their disposal, they can't retaliate either.
With the United Nations unable to change the President's
mind and the tension, rising will our friend and the Olympus Initiative manage
to survive this threat from within?"
Proteus Serendipity
"If there is one thing that always seems to happen on
Beletrix it is that they never like things quiet. With the Avoran ship Eclipse
now fully reworked and in prime condition once more and Corona refitted and
almost as good as new, our friend's curiosity over Eclipse's failed
experimental star drive has led to the decision to create one more Proteus ship.
She is not entirely Proteus though, featuring a reworked and revised version of
the Avoran's experiment.
As Corona and Eclipse leave for Earth, the Proteus family
welcome their newest youngster in to their fold, the shy and reserved Ayra. It
soon becomes apparent that for all their brilliance, the Avorans were a flawed
species and while Ayra can use this experimental star drive, it distorts time
more than it does space. Their project was always doomed to fail and Ayra is
scheduled to be refitted with a standard Proteus star drive.
For other members of the Proteus family things are returning
to normal. Miras and Saya continue to search for the final world for the new
Apeyron Empire, while Koli and Cenya return to Alphius Prime to continue the
clear out of the Mere Sciences Vault, a place where the most dangerous
technology and precious artefacts of their people resides on their long dead
home world.
Venturing in to the deepest sections of the Vaults, in a
room that has not been set foot in for over three hundred years, Koli and Flip
move a piece of equipment only to find something highly confusing hidden behind
it. On the wall, etched in to the stone is a message that makes no sense. It is
a message that should not be there, written by a person they both know has
never been in this room before.
Returning to Beletrix Koli talks with Miras and Terrik,
sharing what she has learnt and the inescapable conclusion of what she has
found. Knowing this message and what it may hold for all their futures, the
three sisters must decide what to do with this information as it could change
everything."
