Treasure Lost

RG Cordiner

What do you treasure and how far would you go to find it?


Peter and Farren are two brothers who think adventure is sneaking into a pub or going rabbit hunting. Little do they know! Soon the youths are on a whirlwind trip of betrayal, daggers, self-discovery and a giant reticulated python! Somehow they have to find a way to stop fighting with each other, avoid a sadistic Navy Admiral and a mysterious cloaked pirate captain, whilst remembering to tap the biscuits on the side of the ship – maggots are never good for breakfast! “If you came for treasure it lies within, if you did not, what you treasure lies beyond your grasp.”

 

Candy Wars: The Tooth Fairies ....

RG Cordiner

You may not like your sister, but are you really going to fight a war against her?


James and Emily never get on - always fighting and arguing! But when James wakes up one night as his tooth is stolen by a jelly monster he follows it into a weird and wonderful world. Chocolate archers come out of the walls and fly in bubble gum balloons, giant rock candy trolls roam around, icing sugar snowmen appear and disappear, all under the direction of the Candy King who is preparing a war against the tooth fairies! Soon Emily and their cat Muffins find themselves joining the fairies, with only a toothless dragon and a phoenix with hay fever to help them fight the mighty Candy Army! “The Candy King is waiting for you.”

 

Bug Island

RG Cordiner

Being stuck on an island with a 6 metre long centipede was not on the cruise itinerary!


They destroyed the mighty Mayan Empire. What hope for a few shipwrecked survivors?

A South American cruise. It should have been a once in a lifetime experience. And it was. But not in the way they imagined. Barely surviving a horrific shipwreck, the remaining passengers have to try and cope with finding food, water, shelter, let alone the constant arguments. And then there are the bugs. Not the sort that you squish and then get on with your day. Oh no.

Toe biters, pond skaters, assassin bugs and harvestmen that drop down on top of their victims - all of these could be found in your garden. But on this lost island they are all at least twenty times their normal size. Trapped on an island with a six metre long giant centipede with armoured plates was not on the cruise itinerary. Now all they want is to get off - without being squished!

"Anyone pack the bug spray?"

Thanks CSMith for taking the chance to have a look at it. A publican is the owner of a pub. The PMP - is a sound effect. I use them in my books to try and convey a bit more atmosphere. I'm glad you enjoyed it. view book
