When the world ends, can love survive?
Love comes in the most unlikely places! It must surely be a case of mistaken identity or so Carrie informed herself as she travelled towards the place indicated to her. But then at the time she had no idea of what awaited her there or the advent of the two men into her life who would ultimately shape her destiny. Neither come to that had she any idea at the time of the dangers which were destined to torment her. Could this be all because she had once applied for a job in the civil service? But if this was the case she was hardly filing papers in an air conditioned office. Therefore she was left with the question whether she could find true love as she faced those jagged ghoul shaped rocks which appeared to inspire sedition?
Welcome to Phantasma. There are only two rules to the game: Stay alive.
And don’t fall in love.
Sometimes legends don't tell the whole story. After the sudden death of her boyfriend, Vera would have been happy to spend her life completely unnoticeable, washing bedsheets and cleaning toilets in a Glastonbury hotel. But everything changes when a strange new guest reveals himself to be Merlin and drags her back to seventh century Camelot, a place she knows only from legends. He tells her that only Vera (or Queen Guinevere, as Merlin calls her) can right the course of history and save Arthur' s kingdom from the will of a power-hungry mage. There' s one enormous problem: Guinevere was the sole witness to the curse that's now draining the kingdom of its magic, and Vera doesn't remember anything from that life. And with Camelot' s peace ebbing ever closer to shattering, she's running out of time. Working with Merlin' s magic to retrieve her long-lost memories brings more questions than answers: why is it that King Arthur, who treats his subjects with such benevolence, can' t even stand to look at her? And why does that make Vera' s soul feel like it' s splitting in two? What robbed her of her memories in the first place . . . and, most importantly, why? As Vera is about to discover, in a world of legend and power, the secrets of her memories are only the beginning . . .

GATSBY GIRLS She was an impulsive, fashionable and carefree 1920s woman who embodied the essence of the Gatsby Girl -- F. Scott Fitzgerald's wife, Zelda. As Fitzgerald said, "I married the heroine of my stories." All of the eight short stories contained in this collection were inspired by Zelda. Fitzgerald, one of the foremost writers of American fiction, found early success as a short story writer for the most widely read magazine of the early 20th century -- the Saturday Evening Post. Fitzgerald's stories, first published by the Post between 1920 and 1922, brought the Jazz Age and the "flapper" to life and confirmed that America was changing faster than ever before. Women were bobbing their hair, drinking and flirting shamelessly, and Fitzgerald brought these exciting Gatsby Girls to life in the pages of the Post. A foreword by Jeff Nilsson, archivist for the Post, adds historical context to this wonderful, new collection, which is highlighted by an introduction written by Fitzgerald himself. Each story is accompanied by the original illustrations and the beautiful cover images from the Post. Read the stories that made F. Scott Fitzgerald one of the most beloved writers in America -- and around the world -- still today.

"Which one of you bitches is my mother?"
In their home port of Bristol, the Seymores were feared, but they had no difficulty in obtaining crews for their ships. They paid well and expected blind loyalty. Woe betide anyone who talked of what happened in foreign lands.... In a lifetime, I have had many interests. A keen gardener, dabbled in politics, dramatics, wine making, old music and dance, also religiion. Most of all, I observe the different interests of all kinds of people. Probably, this gives me the urge to write. The characters that I write about are fictional, with a hint of truth. My service in the Royal Navy has given me a wide spectrum of human nature.
