.=======================================
At times we need to wind down a little and re-charge our batteries.
Authonomy can be a very testing time in that respect, the grey cells become tired and the mind functions at less than its true potential.
Fear not...there is, as always, an answer to the problem.
Spare yourself a little of the good things in life, spend a few moments re-visiting your childhood.
Turn the pages of my book ‘The Secrets of the Forest – The Time Zone’ and re-kindle the zest for life.
Oh, and by the way...it’s for a very good cause, please back it afterwards… if ... you feel a little better.
“I shall of course take a look at your book, with the interest that it deserves.”
I wish you well in your pursuit of happiness.

I would like to become a Writer on the lines of Michael Morpurgo, who I consider to be an excellent Author of children’s books.
A hard act to follow but very rewarding given the readership that he has built up over the years.

Neville Kent

A Twelve-year-old boy, crippled since birth, is cured after meeting a strange old lady and her cat.
‘However—there is a price to pay’.



Twelve-year-old Tommy, unable to walk without supports since birth, lives with his gran on the edge of a large forest.
His life changes after meeting an old lady living on the far side with her companion, a big, black cat.
Shunned by the locals as a witch, she creates a potion that enables Tommy to walk.
However, there is a price to pay.

They are soon on a journey of discovery deep within the forest.
The cat is able to change its usual form as they enter a ‘Time Zone’ on their way to meet the Keeper of the Forest.
Tommy learns how it’s twenty times slower than normal time.

Awe- inspiring surprises abound as they traverse a trail unknown to normal people.
A meal with Mr Keeper in a magnificent dining room awaits them after they navigate a perilous waterfall and enter a secret door.

The trio travel on an 'Underground System’ to assist in a rescue mission.
They visit the weird ‘Statue Room’ with its own tale to tell.
Tommy takes an unusual gift back for his gran, but will she agree to him visiting again to learn more of—‘The Secrets of the Forest’?

 

One Off, Sir!

Neville Kent

Big, Ed Riley’s paid his debt to society. Over four years behind bars.
He knows who shopped him. Powerfully built, honed to perfection. He’s out!


Ed Riley’s used to violence. It’s his way of life and he’s good at it.
A near five year stretch in prison however puts paid to his daily routine.
He can’t figure out why a post office robbery went wrong. That is until a fresh inmate attacks him with a razor leaving Ed with twenty five stitches across his face.
As it cuts him to the bone a names mentioned. One he’ll remember throughout the remainder of his sentence...One that will drive him crazy at times as the feeling of revenge eats away at his sanity.
This person was the last one ‘Big Ed’ would have thought of and the last person he’d want to have cause to tangle with. All the same, Ed was keen to even out the score and many will be hurt badly in the process. That’s not a subject Ed thought a lot about. Dishing out pain was something he took for granted and even enjoyed.
Released on the day by a Screw who befriended him, Ed Riley makes his way into the outside world again, with the promise of a favour to the officer.
Someone won’t sleep very well tonight...Big Ed’s out!

Due Process. By Jane Finch. As a crime thriller, your book has everything going for it, mystery, intrigue and the unexpected twist. It certainly keeps the reader wanting to read on. I found the seven chapters to be compelling to say the least. It’s enough when Tony goes missing, but then the ... view book

The Dragon’s Son. By Daniel Gilmore. What a good start to your book, excellent description of the old dragon, scarred from battles and with only one good eye. I could see him as he distinguished the different smells in the air. His huge wings worse for wear, flapping them to take off—I like ... view book

The Committee of Dubious Goals. By Sam Banfield. Read to chapter five and found it an interesting read with vivid description in parts.
