The book of Narain – the Rising  

About The book of Narain – the Rising

Narain is a cute little meerkat who lives merrily with his clan in the African savanna. He runs around like a fur ball and plays pranks with everyone around. But, little does he know what a moonless night would have in store for him.

The savanna also makes home to some ferocious beasts and a vile witch who lurks in the dark. Destiny separates Narain from his home; and someone comes by – to love, nurture and to transform. Inconceivable challenges lies ahead that demands more than a hero, and what follows is an inspiring tale of survival and rising; a tale that pivots on friendship, love and valor, when Narain and his friends – a bubbly white mouse, a wise barn owl, a mighty golden eagle and a pirate squirrel join hands to embark on an incredible adventure.

Will Narain and friends save the jungle and their kin from the beasts of the African wild and black magic? A stand-out story with beautiful pictures, good morals and pertinent messages for children and young alike.

Author Bio:
Hailing from Johannesburg, Southern Africa, Sian B. Claven has enjoyed stories for all her life, whether she was reading them or making them. She has written for as long as she can remember, but Ensnared is the first book she decided to publish. Moving towards writing more for a horror genre, when Sian isn’t thinking of ways to terrify people, she enjoys writing science fiction stories, poetry and rather long and gushy birthday wishes. When she isn’t working on her writing you can find her knitting, scrap booking, reading, or playing Xbox. Sian also reviews for The Blithering Bibliomaniacs and clearly doesn’t know what the words rest and relaxation mean, at least not in the traditional sense.



Miss Prince  

About Miss Prince

Lucinda has a wicked stepfather to defeat. Not hers, her father is very nice and is letting her save up for that plane ticket she wants so badly.

No, she’s been employed as a prince, her boss having run out of real ones, and she has dragons to fight, damsels to rescue and a usurper to dethrone. And to do it she’s got the help of a witch who won’t use magic, a vampire who won’t terrorise the villagers(much to their annoyance) and two princesses who might have qualified as damsels in distress if only they weren’t causing so much of their own.

In the Otherworlds, where your species can be a job description and good is expected to win over evil without even breaking a sweat, it should have been easy. But the stories are breaking, and nothing is that simple any more. Is a plane ticket really worth all this..?

Author Bio:
I’m a middle-aged man living in Middle America. I will go out of my way to help people, even total strangers. Several times in my life I have found keys or phones or wallets loaded with cash and I’ve gone out of my way to get everything back to the rightful owner. I have done volunteer work for many years and have donated thousands of hours of my life and considerable amounts of money to them. I donate to charities regularly and tip generously. I have developed a life-long policy of never stealing from people, volunteer organizations or small businesses. I don’t shoplift, I don’t do carding and I don’t steal identities. However, when it comes to dealing with corporations, I think everyone should reserve the right to be opportunistic.
I have worked in multiple positions as an employee and as a manager in Corporate America for over twenty five years. Some years ago, I started to encounter techniques that employees were using to supplement their incomes and to get a tiny amount of revenge on corporations they worked for. I found out they looked at this as a part-time job that they were doing in addition to their day jobs. It turns out they have been able to use many techniques to profit from corporations, so I’ve been collecting these stories and decided to document them.

When one of the men suffers a life-changing injury and is admitted to her ward Meri discovers that there are more secrets she must keep from those closest to her.

Spanning the 1914-18 war Broken Faces is the story of four friends and their fight for survival. It is ultimately a story of how love can triumph over adversity in the most unexpected way.
