No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night. But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway: a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them both, this is a game in which only one can be left standing. Despite the high stakes, Celia and Marco soon tumble headfirst into love, setting off a domino effect of dangerous consequences, and leaving the lives of everyone, from the performers to the patrons, hanging in the balance.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“I would like to thank myself for the miracle of my being here today.” These are the words Dawn spoke before members of the FDA Psychopharmacologic Drug Advisory Committee Hearing in 2006 before she described her prescription drug-related experience—an ordeal that began five years earlier… With a successful and coveted career in the concert tour arena, a blossoming new relationship, and her beloved dog Simon at her side, Dawn sets off for a sunny vacation in Florida between tours. But when she is prescribed an anti-anxiety medication for a minor problem, her charmed life quickly spirals into mania, insomnia, religious preoccupations, impulsive actions, grandiose behaviors, suicidal ideation, and psychosis. The world-altering events of September 11 further propel a delusional Dawn into a full-blown paranoid, psychotic war—and she is brutally taken into custody, involuntarily committed to a mental crisis institution, and drugged even more. In riveting detail, Dawn takes the reader on a wild and terrifying ride of insanity. As the drugs are flushed from her system, she begins to regain control over her life and eventually flourish, and now she shares her harrowing story to shed light on the dark epidemic of pharmaceutical drug-generated violence, suicide, homicide, and terrorism.

Once in a while, though, exciting adventures come their way. This time the adventure begins on Halloween night on the railroad tracks near their home. They, along with their 14-year-old brother Clarence and their three-legged dog Jiggs, . . and two hobos . . . are swept up by a mysterious, almost-invisible train that carries them, screeching through the night, to a far away place, where they may "never again see light." It doesn't take the children long to learn that their lives are in danger. Then they make another unbelievable discovery. Some of their own family members live near the circus camp/prison where they have been taken, The many adventures they experience at the hands of the man in the brown suit with the black derby hat and his sidekick, the ringmaster at the circus, will leave the reader wondering if they'll ever be able to escape and return to their home. If so, what would they tell their family about the adventure? And would another adventure ever come their way?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCall Me Stranger is a fantasy for adults which retains our childish love of the magickally impossible. Yes. Magick, not Magic is what counts in this romp where Evil takes on Good. The war between Darline and the Cat didn’t really get going for a thousand years after Darline was burned at the stake for Witchcraft. Cat did all a faithful Familiar could, but Time Rules tied his paws as he fought to prevent the newly Evil Darline wreaking havoc. The shy accountant, Norman Boosbeck, didn’t even know he was a Warlock because Magick died off centuries Cat’s team of Witches all carried their own weaknesses – dipsomaniac Erin, kleptomaniac Lydia, or pipe-smoking smelly tramp, Ramona. They were joined by the brattish child-medium Melanie (who was also the lovely adult Alice, sent to inspire Norman) and the dapper Warlock hypnotist, Darren. Irving, a dwarf from an unknown planet, met Cat in Limbo after getting lost in Time. However, Cat appointed him unofficial leader of the eccentric gang intent upon bringing Norman back within the Magickal fold. It was difficult! Today’s world couldn’t even spell ‘magick’, let alone use it. Everything went wrong when the man in Darline’s life, Lord of the Manor, Sir James Hawkney became a pawn in the ambitious schemes of the King’s Prosecutor, Hubert, and Cedricke, the Executioner. Marching sheep, talking rabbits, four-foot frogs, twelve-inch crickets and three very worried Spirits didn’t help much, either. At the centre of it all, though was the vain, enigmatic and unpredictable Cat. Whose side is he really on...?
