about me

Fire Wizard, book 1 of The Nirikarr Shift, now available on Amazon for Kindle Books.

I have now finished the sequel, Masters of the Wind, and am busy turning the two books together into a TV series called The Nirikarr Shift.

I started to write after I retired and my science fiction/fantasy adventure series is written with young adults in mind, but not exclusively so. Fire Wizard is also available as a screenplay.

I am now 69, live in Prudhoe, in the Tyne valley, Northumberland, where I am involved in Am Drams as actor and director.

Masters of the Wind: Book II ....

Sylvia Lumley

Anna and Michael plan to marry. The problem is they come from different planets and ruthless people are out to get them.


Anna and Michael plan to marry, but where?

With the Fire Wizard's travelling device they go from Chicago to Anna's world of medieval castles and small farming communities.

But things do not go as planned. The device is confiscated by strange alien beings and they are forcefully repatriated to their own home worlds. Separated, with no way of contacting the other, they each vow to find a way back.

Anna and her friends embark on a perilous journey to a monastery with an ancient library, to ask the monks for help to locate the aliens, but someone will stop at nothing to prevent her from discovering the truth.

Michael learns of a second device and tracks down the one ruthless man from Anna’s world who may know where it is, but finds himself in mortal danger as he follows him across our world.

Who are these aliens with so much power? And what do they want with the Earth? Both Anna and Michael find tantalizing clues and suspect there are some people on both worlds who know the answers.

This is great fun to read but I do wish there were more, shorter, paragraphs. It outfaces me somewhat, like I've too much on my plate and it puts me off. I would prefer smaller helpings and have to go back for more. Even so, it's worth the bother. view book

Love this. It promises to be as good as the first in this series. For my taste it has just a few too many adjectives, only at the very beginning. It's as though you are trying too hard. (Aren't we all?) I would lose the ones I've bracketed. - her ruby red (painted) lips - puckered (half) smile ... view book

I was enjoying the story very much but got fed up with the typos. I have pages of errors, most of them so obvious that it's clear you haven't bothered. I'm sure you are going to edit this sometime in the next century and I'll wait until you have. In the meantime I will back and rate this because I ... view book

I'm really enjoying this. It rattles along and keeps you interested. I like the two cops and their interplay and their dialogue comes over as authentic. I'm trying to decide if I like the constant p.o.v shifts or not. It doesn't interfere with the flow. I did find a sentence I couldn't quite ma... view book

This is the very first time (and possibly the last) that I've ever looked at a book because of a cold request. And I'm very glad I did. I think it will be a sure fire hit. On this web-site you need to delete everything before chapter 1, including the prologue (it will be OK in print but not here.... view book
