So we’re well into the second week of NaNoWriMo – how’s it going for you? Me? Well, I had an initial splurge of activity, but then other stuff got in the way (as it so often can…), which then led to a period of scratching my head and desperately trying to get back into the […]
A few weeks ago we launched a contest for one lucky reader to win a signed copy of Haven Wakes, the debut novel by Fi Phillips. We were blown away by the number of entrants. While we’d love for every person who entered to get a copy, there can be only one winner. Fi announces […]

Reviews for the book are outstanding, describing it as ”a genuine page turner”, ”a fast-paced journey through a magical, but futuristic world” and ”if you’re a Harry Potter fan… then you’ll love Haven Wakes!” To celebrate the launch, we […]
This week’s been a hectic one, as our very own Fi Phillips’ debut novel, Haven Wakes, came out just a few days ago. Haven Wakes is a fantastic adventure set in a futuristic world where all is not as it seems, and where robots and magic co-exist… Haven Wakes is now on sale at all […]
