Do you know the four types of aliens that have hidden themselves amongst governments and armed services throughout the world? No? Well, neither did Air Force Captain Scott Ryan until one night when he encountered a UFO while flying a training mission and was ordered by his superiors to forget what he saw. When Scott learns that airmen at his base had been experiencing the same thing he did for years, he ignores the order and begins digging deeper. Scott’s investigation quickly snowballs from innocent research into revelations of a covert war between humans and aliens and a full-blown government conspiracy and coverup. With a group of aliens known as the “Naturals” going extinct, they are creating more and more alien/human “Hybrids” to ensure their survival—a process that threatens human free will and existence. With the survival of both humans and aliens at stake, Captain Ryan suddenly becomes the only man with enough knowledge to stop the Naturals or . . . to join them? Winner of two 2022 BookFest awards, recognizing best science fiction and fantasy books, and a 2022 Literary Titan Book Award.

Cleopatra, a Queen and the last Pharaoh of Egypt comes from space as the most prominent foreign galactic being ever to walk the face of the Earth. As the Egyptians believed that in death all would recycle and renew into new life, so Cleopatra is reborn again through a woman of the American Civil Rights Era and then she is born again through another young woman of the American aughts. In this incarnate story Cleopatra is something other than human as she embarks on a journey on Earth in the name of truth, justice and union of Earth and the rest of space. She is poetic and speaks the language of outer space as she faces trials on Earth and asks her old notorious snake, that took her life, to guide her through Earth’s authorities' accusations against her. As the ancient war between Rome and Egypt lead to her demise, her alien spirit takes flight into the American Era where trials are wavering in two different human women that embody the very alien spirit of Cleopatra.

This collection of short stories includes innovative tales of an aspiring politician, an encounter in the film festival toilets, being stranded in the Fiji airport by George Speight's coup, and a lonely farmer who buys armor on the Internet and jousts in Palmerston North. These stories make an immediate impression with their vigorous, often outrageous humor and with their firm grounding in New Zealand's country towns and suburbs. But their darker subtexts soon become apparent, as does a passionate engagement with social and political issues.

The Truth is out there! But do we care? Gurt from Zimpac explains it this way. "My mission is to make a deal for water. Earth has more water than the rest of the universe combined. With one-tenth of it we can meet all our water needs for the next thirty thousand millennia. In return we can offer them an end to death and disease, and bring them peace, prosperity, and fulfillment." "Sounds easy" his pilot says. "Obviously you have never indulged yourself in the study of earthlings," Gurt responds. So Gurt begins his odyssey to acquaint humanity with the fact that they are not alone in the universe, and the rest of the universe is thirsty. But after surrounding himself with humans, Gurt can only think of Earth and its inhabitants as "An Alien World."

How do we find the right word for the job? Where does that word come from? Why do we spell it like that? And how do we know what it means? Words are all around us - we use them every day to communicate our joys, fears, hopes, opinions, wishes and demands - but we don't often think about them too deeply. In this highly accessible introduction to English words, the reader will discover what the study of words can tell them about the extraordinary richness and complexity of our daily vocabulary and about the nature of language in general. Assuming no prior knowledge of linguistics, the book covers a wide range of topics, including the structure of words, the meaning of words, how their spelling relates to pronunciation, how new words are manufactured or imported from other languages, and how the meaning of words changes with the passage of time. It also investigates how the mind deals with words by highlighting the amazing intellectual feat performed routinely when the right word is retrieved from the mental dictionary. This revised and expanded second edition brings the study of words right up to date with coverage of text messaging and email and includes new material on psycholinguistics and word meaning. With lively examples from a range of sources - encompassing poetry, jokes, journalism, advertising and clichés - and including practical exercises and a fully comprehensive glossary, English Words is an entertaining introduction to the study of words and will be of interest to anyone who uses them.
