Book excerpt: Where would you go to survive the end of the world? Far from the smoking ruins of the cities, Hurst Castle stands alone. A medieval fortress surrounded by the tidal waters of the Solent on the south coast of England. Hurst’s seventy-four occupants scrape a living, scavenging for food and supplies in a lawless society without electricity or government. There is no time to mourn. Survival is all that matters. But they are not alone. Rival groups covet the castle’s closely guarded resources, probing its defences. When a military-led relief operation makes contact, Hurst’s stalwart leader, Jack, faces a desperate choice. To set aside their differences and join an alliance that promises hope or to unite against the newcomers and their plans for reconstruction. Jack must discover the truth about the Allies before it’s too late, but who can he trust? Only time will tell. The battle for Hurst has begun.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An epic quest, a dragon, a knight in shining armor—this classic children’s story is the perfect read for 3rd and 4th graders who love medieval fantasy. A magical toy castle plunges 10-year-old William into a wild fantasy adventure—where he discovers the true meaning of courage. When his beloved caretaker Mrs. Phillips tells him she's leaving, William is devastated. Not even her farewell gift of a model medieval castle helps him feel better—though he has to admit it’s fascinating. From the working drawbridge and portcullis to the fully-furnished rooms, it's perfect in every detail. It almost seems magical. And when William looks at the silver knight, the tiny figure comes to life in his hand—and tells him a tale of a wicked sorcerer, a vicious dragon, and a kingdom in need of a hero. Hoping the castle's magic will help him find a way to make his friend stay, William embarks on a daring quest with Sir Simon, the Silver Knight—but he will have to face his own doubts and regrets if he's going to succeed. William’s story continues in The Battle for the Castle, available as a redesigned companion edition.
