  • About

    This book is not about First World War Poets. Others may choose to revere them.

    Nor is it about mud, blood and poppycock, nor anything to do with Sassoon, Owen, Rosenberg, Gurney or Graves, except in commemoration.

    More than anything, I am not concerned with poets, or their war.

    My subject is the marking of the centenary and the way in which we experience it.
    All a poet can do today is remember.

    [bg_collapse view=”button-blue” color=”#FFFFFF” icon=”eye” expand_text=”Show More…” collapse_text=”Show Less…” inline_css=”font-size:15px;font-weight:600;” ]

    This Thing of Memory is a new volume of poems by David Hynes, examining the impact of the First World War; its imprint on our memory and conscience, both personal and collective, and the experience of the centenary commemorations: a unique event for each generation.

    The poems contained in this collection enact a subtle kind of magic, offering a fresh perspective at every turn. From the tragic to the humorous; the original to the vaguely familiar, these verses are as individual as the people reading them, and the people being remembered within their lines.

  • About

    Phillip Drew has secrets… the trouble is, he doesn’t know what they are.

    [bg_collapse view=”button-blue” color=”#FFFFFF” icon=”eye” expand_text=”Show More…” collapse_text=”Show Less…” inline_css=”font-size:15px;font-weight:600;” ]

    Phillip Drew has it all.

    He’s living the dream, with a great car, a smart house, a fantastic job and a wonderful girlfriend whom he plans to marry.

    Then, one day, he hears a voice in his head. It compels him to do bad things. Pretty soon, all the good things are forgotten and the voice is his only friend, whispering lies and filling his head with violent thoughts. That’s when it all starts to go catastrophically wrong.

    The dreams come, like postcards from his subconscious. At first, Phillip struggles to understand them, but soon their meanings become clear. His personality undergoes a change and he gradually recognizes and, ultimately, remembers who he is: who he has always been.

    He doesn’t want to be called Phillip anymore. That’s not who he is. He knows that he was the subject of an experiment several years ago and decides to put right the years of lies and deceit.

    He knows who’s to blame; he knows who’s responsible, and he’s going to finish him… just as soon as he ties up the other fragments of his fake existence.

    Please Note: This book contains adult themes of a sexual and violent nature and should only be read by those of 18+ years.

  • About

    What happens when one man’s crusade blinds him to the actions of others? What happens when that man is the President of the United States?

    [bg_collapse view=”button-blue” color=”#FFFFFF” icon=”eye” expand_text=”Show More…” collapse_text=”Show Less…” inline_css=”font-size:15px;font-weight:600;” ]

    Set in the future, An Act of Vengeance tells the story of President Calvin Moore, a former Marine who has served and nearly died in the long Columbian War. Both contentious and bullish, Moore is about to introduce one of the most controversial laws in history. The Hunt Law, enables ‘hunters’ to enter a lottery to win the prize of stalking the ultimate prey: man.

    In his rise to the top, Moore has made himself some powerful enemies and the Hunt Law gives them their opportunity to finally take Moore out of the equation… permanently. Expecting opposition from political foes, as well as those within his own party, Moore fails to spot the true danger, and finds himself at the mercy of his oldest adversary.

    An Act of Vengeance is a political thriller in every sense. It moves at a quick pace and is told from the perspective of several of the characters, keeping the reader guessing throughout.
