Sand and Magic – another review!

‘Mike 700′ from the UK has read and reviewed Sand and Magic. He gave On the Road to Winterhaven a great review and I’m pleased to hear that he enjoyed Sand and Magic too!



“This story may be short in length, but it is ‘long’ in quality, ‘long’ in style and ‘long’ in interest.


I really did enjoy it, and I am looking forward to the next instalment.


Well worth a read, and must be the bargain of the year, well done

Kindle/Amazon and well done Geoff Nolan.


I thoroughly recommend it .”




Thanks Mike!! If anyone else would like to submit a review for Sand and Magic, you can do so here!

Sand and Magic – first review is in!

Sand and Magic has hit the ground running with a 4 star review over at Amazon.co.uk:



“Being fairly new the the wonderful world of e-books it has taken me a little while to adjust. During this adjustment period I have been reading more of the horror genre than anything else. If I am truly honest I would have to say that most of them are dire. Thankfully Sand and Magic has come to the rescue of the short e-book story for me. It starts off with a slight twist on the classically macho world of racing and manages in a short format to include some really rather well described racing scenes which really did drag me into the digital pages so to speak. Without going overboard on the ‘spoiler’ side of things, I loved the race/racing aspects totally but felt the change of heart of ‘the gunman’ a teeny bit schmaltzy but hey, I don’t write do I lol.


Overall a pleasantly different read that would encourage me to read more from the author. Maybe some zombie, post apocalyptic aspects could be brought into the next story. Actually, maybe not.


Well worth a read which kind of sums it all up I think.


Cheers


PBK”



My thanks to PBK for a good and honest review!

Back in the Saddle!

Hi all,


I hope you had a great Christmas and enjoyed the New Year celebrations. I’m back in the writing seat again and the fountain pen is at the ready. Naturally, I’m hoping that 2013 will be a good year. The target is for 3 books, a screenplay and a few short stories in between.


Let’s do it.


G.

Happy New Year!

I’m going away for a few days, so I’d like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy New Year and all the best for 2013! Here’s to a healthy happy and lucky year.


There are now a few hundred copies of Sand and Magic in circulation – if any of you guys are reading it, I hope you’re enjoying it – I’d love to hear any feedback via emails or reviews on Amazon. A sequel is in the works and I’m hoping to put some shape on it during the next few days away.


Sand and Magic at Amazon


Happy New Year,

Geoff

Mailing List Added!

So, ladies and gents, I’ve added a mailing list form right here ——————>


Subscribe if you’d like me to email you when my next novel is out. Not that I’ll keep it a secret…


Alas, early 2013 should be when the next novel is due out. It’s an interesting one, that’s about all I can say about it so far. It’s also well over the 100,000 word mark. Let’s see where it ends up!


It’s also totally off the wall..!
