HI Folks, my third novel 'Oblivion' is now available on pre-order (general release 20 April) at http://www.green-cat.co/steve-p-leeThe blurb:
Sergeant Mint Harris is chief of police in Charlestown, a settlement on Obsirion II, a planet colonised 50 years ago by the British Corporation.
Nothing much happens there, and she likes it that way. However, a murder is reported, and other strange things are brought to her attention. Is there a connection?
Life in Charlestown is about to change, rapidly and irreversibly. The repercussions could impact all of humanity. Can Mint keep a grip on the developing situation, and how will it end?
Flip-Flops, Fiesta and Flamenco
Flip Flops, Fiestas, and Flamenco is the first in a series of three books about two best friends, their lives, loves, and adventures after moving to a small village in the Andalusian hills.
Abby and Lou have been BFF’s since the first day at Uni. Despite being opposites in both looks and personality they were drawn to each other, sharing a flat, dreams and a love of animals.
Through the ensuing years despite heartache and divorce, they remain as close as ever.
Abby would be the first to admit her life needs an injection of fun. Middle-aged, divorced and slightly overweight, she’s a mother/general dogs-body to two lay-about sons, a pink-haired Amazonian on-off girlfriend and an incorrigible British Bulldog named Chester. Her lifelong dream of living in Spain’s glorious sunshine has been long forgotten or has it?
Lou was stuck in her own rut, never fully recovered from a tragedy in her past. A long list of online dating disasters had left her wondering if she will ever find love again. Her cool ice-maiden persona is shattered along with her cat’s eardrums when she wins £400,000 on an online bingo site.
Could this be the answer to both their prayers?
Flip-Flops packed, they embark on their adventure, but it isn’t all sun and sangria. Warring pets, new neighbours, cooking experiments, scary wildlife and an escapee Donkey named Santos combine to make it an unforgettable Summer.
Can their friendship survive or will the Mediterranean dream become a nightmare?

5.0 out of 5 starsLovely stuff
4 April 2018
Format: Kindle Edition
Another selection of tales from Port Naain, as told by jobbing poet Tallis Steelyard. Read about the underpinnings of dancing matrons, the secret beneath the undergarments of a gentlewoman of the town, the resurrection of a dead mercenary, and much more. This is a gentle comedy of manners in a world so different from our own. The author writes affectionately of his world and his characters, and I share that affection. Lovely stuff.

Blurb
Death was wending its way to the moor: slowly, surely, methodically. It was a day that had been many months in the planning, and the ritual, so well rehearsed, was about to be enacted. It would be a solemn end, for without that, it would be nothing; this was how it had to be.
Welcome to Yorkshire, 1949. A village schoolmaster leaves a mysterious note, and as the drama unfolds, the reader is transported back to a stifling afternoon upon the moor some forty or so years earlier, for this, it would seem, is a moment in time with which his fate has become inextricably bound.
FREE SAMPLE CHAPTER
Hello all. I'm thrilled that the book I've been researching and writing for a year or so is on track for publication on 25 June. If you like history brought to life, check it out.
Kindle pre-orders are open at https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07CVKHF2B at an introductory price of £1.49, which will stand for just a few days after publication.
However, you can sign up at https://dl.bookfunnel.com/ef68xwyjz3 to receive a free pdf sample chapter and occasional updates on the publication process. You can of course unsubscribe at any time.
Following a positive experience and some knowledge gained in publishing my wife Ingrid’s book I am again publishing through the ‘micro-publisher’ she and I formed. So we need lots of help!
Here’s the ‘blurb’:
In July 1940, a desperately weakened Britain licks her wounds after the humiliating retreat from Dunkirk. How can the fight be taken to the enemy? New Prime Minister Winston Churchill orders the creation of the Special Operations Executive, to 'set Europe ablaze' through subversion and sabotage. But this most secret of agencies must be kept secure.
Guardians of Churchill's Secret Army tells the mostly unknown human stories of the men who were brought into SOE, straight from Intelligence Corps training, to do just that. They were junior in rank, but far from ordinary people. They were Australian, Anglo-French, Canadian, Scandinavian, East European and British. They had been schoolteachers, journalists, artists, ship brokers, racehorse trainers and international businessmen. Each spoke several languages.
These men stood alongside courageous agents in training: encouraged them, assessed their character, and tried to teach them the caution and suspicion that might just keep them alive, deep in enemy territory. But they did much more. Many became agents themselves and displayed great bravery.
All played a crucial role in the global effort to undermine the enemy. We find them not only in the Baker Street Headquarters of SOE, but also in night parachute drops, in paramilitary training in the remotest depths of Scotland and in undercover agent training in isolated English country houses. We follow them to occupied France, to Malaya and Thailand under threat of Japanese invasion, to Italy and Germany as they play their part in the collapse of the Axis regimes. As we do so, we find a world of heroism and commitment so different from our own experience that it is scarcely believable.
Thank you!
Peter
I hope you'll give us a reminder on 25th June, Peter.
Hi everyone, I'm new to the Goodreads forum. Very excited to be here.
I have been working on my first book 'MOJO' for the last few months, and I am very excited to announce that I have just self published it on Amazon.
For the next 5 days it is on a free promotion on Kindle. I'm currently working on the paperback version, and this should be live once the free promotion expires.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07CZLH6V4
I would be extremely grateful for any downloads and reviews left on Amazon.
Essentially it is a book for women, specifically Mums, who feel that they may have lost their identity a little. It's a book designed to allow women to question themselves, do a little soul searching and give their lives (in all areas) a makeover.
For those of you who decide to download it, thank you.
My book aside, I look forward to being a positive contributor to the forum, the discussion, and can't wait to read some amazing books.
Thank you for reading.

My long-in-gestation fantasy novel, The Stickman's Legacy, is finally out! (A mere 15 years after I first started planning it)
Mary never knew her father until he died and brought his enemies to her doorstep. Searching his house for answers, she unearths an ancient nightmare and is drawn into a world of corporate magicians, subterranean kingdoms and living architecture, all of whom have history with the Stickman - and their own sinister agendas for his daughter.
As a secret war breaks out across London with her at the centre, Mary finds fragments of her own past resurfacing, and has to understand the true nature of her legacy before it's too late...
THE STICKMAN'S LEGACY is a dark fairy-tale about the stories we tell ourselves.

Single and Looking Daisy: A Funny Laugh Out Loud Feel Good Summer Read
I'm still on the dark side - but this time it's England, it's 1813 and there is romance, lust, humour and . . . murder. My latest book is Fortune's Hostage, which I have written under the pen name of Julia Hardy. That is so there is no confusion with my books as Kelly as they are read by quite a mixed audience. https://viewBook.at/Fortune's Hostage
England, 1813
Greed, deception and lust
Miss Eloise Camarthon is in the midst of her first London Season, which has been delayed by several years due to the untimely death of her parents. No ordinary debutante, she wants to live her life on her own terms, as promised by her uncle, the Duke of Westbury who is also her guardian.
But Eloise is wealthy in her own right and a target for those with her fortune in their sights.
Benedict Warrington, the Earl of Rothsea, has come to London in search of answers to a family tragedy. His investigation takes him to Westbury's country seat, where he meets the beguiling Eloise, and a dangerous chain of events is set in motion.
˃˃˃ Who can you trust when something is worth killing for?
Circumstances force an ultimatum, which threatens to change the course of Eloise's future. Will she be sought only for her fortune, or for herself? And which would be worse?
Benedict is on the trail of a vicious murderer but finds more than he bargained for as the deaths mount up. Can he protect Eloise, or will Benedict be the killer's next victim?

Hello againSince the release of my Supernatural Thriller: Boundless in Torment, I have also completed my most up to date version of my Young Adult Fantasy The Coming of the Dhufal. Which I originally released back in 2011. This up to date version is a complete re-working of the original that is longer, more complex, and far more exciting.
When Eric is suspended for inflicting a nasty burn on the school bully, his life takes an unexpected turn. Not only does he discover that the incident was the result of a power within him that he does not understand, but that he is not alone. There are others like him. As Eric comes to learn the truth behind his power, he finds himself hunted by the terrifying Scarati; spectral beings that are attracted to his abilities, a mysterious cult led by a man in dark glasses, and a tyrant king from another world, who seeks to conquer the entire universe known as the Hermacles Divide.
This book is free on Kindle Unlimited or £1.99 on Amazon UK, and the equivalent price in other regions. If you do happen to purchase a copy, please rate and review on Amazon and Goodreads.
Many thanks.
