Offers on our Peace Child Series - while stocks last

 Buy signed copies from the author: all four £20.00, any three £18.00, any two £15.00, any one £10.00    



 

Kaleem Malkendy is different – and on Terrestra, different is no way to be.
Everything about Kaleem marks him out form the rest: the blond hair and dark skin, the uncomfortable cave where he lives and the fact that he doesn’t know his father. He’s used to unwelcome attention, but even so he’d feel better if some strange old man didn’t keep following him around.
That man introduces himself and begins to explain the Babel Prophecy – and everything in Kaleem’s life changes forever.



Babel is the second part of the Peace Child trilogy. Kaleem has found his father and soon finds the love of his life, Rozia Laurence, but he is still not comfortable with his role as Peace Child. He also has to face some of the less palatable truths about his home planet: it is blighted by the existence of the Z Zone, a place where poorer people live outside of society, and by switch-off, compulsory euthanasia for a healthy but aging population, including his mentor, Razjosh. The Babel Tower still haunts him, but it begins to make sense as he uncovers more of the truth about his past and how it is connected with the problems in the Z Zone. Kaleem knows he can and must make a difference, but at what personal cost?

The House of Clementine by Gill James

Gill James has created a gripping narrative. I read the whole novel (and it is quite sizeable in pages) in two chunks. It would have been just one but I had to go to work. Detailed plot, interesting and finely drawn characters and a great premise. This isn't usually the sort of book, that I would read but this has certainly got me hooked on expanding my reading repertoire I will have to read the first three! Highly Recommended. A fabulous and gifted writer.

Weird Science by Doug Hawley

 


Who would have thought it?

An abominable snowman speaks, dreams so good you’ll never want to wake up, metaphysical questions, a cat with telepathy, a magical stream in USA’s Northwest, and an unexpected invasion from the far north of Canada.

You will find all this and more in one book of Weird Science

Who knew the abominable snowman would be such a rich source of insight on humans? Through Weird Science’s quirky interviews, author Doug Hawley draws from myriad sources of knowledge and wisdom to paint a colorful and humorous collage of what it means to be human.
Great forward thinking; I’m still thinking of some of the ideas in this book.
Fun read! In fact I am jealous I want a telepathic cat!

The Prophecy is a novel I hadn't heard much about until I picked it up last week. As someone who adores all things futuristic the premise defintely appealed to me, but I hadn't seen many reviews and so I wasn't sure what to expect. As it turns out, I was pleasantly surprised by this absorbing and unusual story set in the Earth's far distant future.
do not usually read young adult novels but I have to say this one had me gripped from the start. Set over 1000 years in the future, The Prophecy, as the name suggests, is centred around fulfilling a prophecy about peace at a time when people from different planets do not accept people for their differences and hence do not always live in harmony. The main protagonist Kaleem is unwittingly part of this prophecy. He has always been chastised for being different- but he is more different than he realises and is a Peace Child who has to fulfil The Babel Prophecy and restore univeral harmony. This book is a quest but one that deals with love, war,languages, being different and hope.
really enjoyed reading this book. There's loads of great descriptions about future technology and how different people live. The main character is likeable and although he's the hero of the story he makes mistakes which he learns from and isn't perfect, making him much more realistic.
