The Shoulder of Giants

"Like many teenagers, Will is haunted by the question: 'When are you going to grow up?' During his parents' separation, Will is sent away from the city to live with his grandparents among the rugged Cumbrian fells and lakes. This is a place with no colour TV or mobile phone reception and, worst of all, nowhere to use his computer games. But far from being bored, Will soon uncovers well-kept family secrets and other local mysteries that will threaten the lives of those he loves. Through his bitter-sweet encounters with a colourful array of local characters, Will finds, in the most unexpected places, real 'grown-up' giants-upon whose shoudlers he can lean in his quest for manhood-and the key to true love, real contentment and lasting happiness. This is the first book in the 4-part Will Houston Mysteries series for teens, adolescents, and upwards to adults. More subtly, the nine parts of this novel explores the nine 'fruits of the Spirit' from Scripture (Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Humility, Self-Control, etc.)."

The Mercy of Lions: The Renaissance Trilogy - Book I

"WELCOME TO HIGH RENAISSANCE ITALY: The age of Michelangelo and Leonardo, of Machiavelli and Raphael - a belle epoque for warrior popes, prelates, princes, poets and the realpolitik. But even as the philosophers claim that 'man has come of age,' Europeans once again arm for war and march on Italy. Into this inferno of intrigue and bloodletting, the knights of Rhodes send Hugh de Erpingham to assassinate his hero, Marcantonio Vendramin, a knight who has disappeared with the gold that could save Rhodes from a growing Turkish threat. As the Sultan amasses a monstrous armada in Gallipoli, these two errant knights; two refugees from the collapse of chivalry, lock horns in a desperate dance of death across the Italian city states in a bid to save Christendom.... and their own souls. PRAISE for BOOK III - 'THE HERETIC' 'An exceptional new novel... masterful story... delicious, multifaceted.' The Historical Novel Review (US) 'A book of big ideas, political intrigue, and action; I came to love Brother Pacificus, Simon, the children, and the many other characters, and I have to admit, I shed several tears on their behalf. Based on historical events, this book has it all, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in such a tumultuous time period.' The Historical Novel Society 'Magnificent... a work of importance... moments of astonishing power... could become a cult book of its kind.' Author, Penelope Wilcox"

SAVING EUROPE: A Tale of Two Dark Ages at the Twilight of the Pax Europa

"SAVING EUROPE is a SPLIT BIOGRAPHY OF TWO UNSUNG HEROES IN TWO DARK AGES. At either end of European history, the decisive leadership showed by (6th-century Irish monk) Columbanus, and (20th-century French statesman) Robert Schuman, helped tip the balance against the forces of cultural anarchy in their day. The author travels to 12 countries in search of their lives and legacies - which serve as both inspiration and warning. This book also explores the ARRIVAL, SURVIVAL, VICTORY & ATROPHY OF EUROPEAN CIVILISATION. From Abraham to Athens; Byzantium to Brussels, this book explores the triumphs and tragedies of a unique civilisation. It highlights the impact of Christianity on Europe's cultural formation and the Christian leadership which spurred movements for political integration. This book delivers a STARK ANALYSIS & TIMELY CHALLENGE TO MODERN EUROPEANS. Reissuing the warning of the war-time leaders and Christian intellectuals, this book challenges both religious and secular readers to rediscover the missing soul of Europe, before it is too late."
