If you’re into short stories with funny, realistically dark humour based on metaphysical realities? Or maybe a dark and macabre twisted tale sets your nerves on edge and beats your drum? Sci-Fi — thrums your engines, and Dragons float your boat.
or in other less fancy words…
If you like a bit of a laugh and you’re into sci-fi, fantasy, humour and horror… with a little bit of kissy, kissy… oh how embarrassing, then yep, you’ll enjoy the ever-growing collection of short stories and novel chapters which comprise Pandora’s Box of Infinite Stories.
SOOOO… what’s in the box? (No cats were harmed in the making of this newsletter!)
In Bone Valley — the Last Dragon — A story based on the adventures of our DnD every second Saturday home game. (In other words, I’m steeling my Dungeon Master’s ideas, but it’s okay cause he’s my kid, and he knows which side of his bread is buttered.
So here’s the blurb for The Last Dragon — Bone Valley
How will our hero Torren rescue the burnt remanence of his beloved city, Bone Valley, with a band of followers that includes a witch who can’t do magic, a chef who happens to be a vegan vampire, a knight whose a pillock and a werewolf who hates dark places and open spaces?
It ain’t gonna be easy! But, at least we can laugh at them when they try.
Nothing is more interesting than the real world itself, especially when we step back and turn the world on its head to see what falls out of its pockets.
‘The Golden Queen’ is the first fantasy novel in a set of three. And currently …sigh… still under development. Which is a nice way of me saying I’m still editing and slashing and changing.
Here's the blurb — Windy Harbour — The Golden Queen
Located in a small fishing village on the south coast of Western Australia, monsters, fairies, mermaids and spirits mingle within a real-life setting. Who will win the ultimate battle? The King of the Salugh Sidhe or the newly minted Mermaid Queen? Who knows, but no one will give up without a fight!
Ever come across a character who’s so wrong they’re right? Lord Harold Der Arzte is that character!
Lord Der Arzte — Gentleman Detective Is a parallel story to Bone Valley, where the delightfully honest Lord Harold Der Artz is introduced. A Sherlock Holmes-type character who lives in the steampunk world of Bone Valley, where his butler is an incubus with a guilt complex, his mother’s a real old harpy, and his girlfriend is much, MUCH smarter than he, but unfortunately, is a woman. And, last but not least, where his arch enemy Moira James-Tarty wants to kill him or bed him…. she hasn’t yet decided but has already set a price for his Lordship’s head.
The Black Box is a collection of stories that just don’t fit into any other section, usually HORROR!!!!!!
