When a fantasy world is overrun with a mob of ravenous zombies, there are no guns to stop them. No tanks. No airstrikes. Just a man with a shovel. Book Description: In the last of the Arcane Academies, the actions of a powerful and corrupted wizard sets into motion the events that will turn the mundane world against the practicioners of magic and mark the end of the Dreaming Tower. Shunned and cast out by his fellow mages, Troius curses them all and dedicates himself to creating a scourge that will sweep the world and earn him well-deserved vengeance. North of the bustling port city of Anticus lies a tranquil backwater, populated by independent-minded rural folk making a living among the foothills of the Kronspine Mountains. In the centuries since the fall of the Dreaming Tower, these farmers and townsfolk are unaware of a lonely, isolated tower standing alone at the foot of a forgotten mountain. When the tower is breached by power-hungry outsiders, the final curse of the wizard Troius is unleashed on a land unprepared for the stalking horror of undeath, one that grows with every bite of its shuffling horde. THE CURSE OF TROIUS is a zombie novel set in a unique fantasy world. Combining strong horror elements and a low-magic fantasy setting, it tells the story of the villages that get in the way of a zombie invasion and the ill-prepared people who can only hope to survive the onslaught.

Meet Two, a dodo with two left feet. He, along with his friends and several hapless penguins, lives in a land governed by Puff, a puffin. Puff's rule begins fairly lightly, with a law stating that everyone must hop everywhere on their left foot. Understandably, this poses a conundrum for Two, with his two left feet, but he perseveres regardless. Soon, however, Puff is suggesting slightly stranger laws - regulation of shell spending and of the army, newfangled boat designs and several odd regulations pertaining to doors, stairs and even crossing the road. It seems that Puff is on a one-puffin mission to rule over his land and, although he seems to listen to the voices of his subjects, he always remains focused on his one goal - to become a droll, and hear the magic words, 'Arise, Droll Puff-Puff'. This light-hearted political farce comments on the many double standards in politics, and the primitive thinking that can sometimes determine the laws of the land we live in. It is aimed at adult children to read or have read to them.

The village of Icil, in the land of Compute, was created by its original form being joined by two other makers - the Eye and the Pye. The chronicle is related by a scribe who had come from the land of the Tit-e-I, where he had tired of his labour. He was hired as a scribe to Albert the Good - a key member of the Council of Elders in the village of Icil. The Scribe soon found that all was not well in the village of Icil. The problem was caused by Albert's two robber barons, The Trader and The Maker. These two were not able to work as one under Albert, as both were jealous of each other, and little progress was being made in producing a new range of engines to replace their old aging models. To make matters worse, Albert was not able to find a way to end the stalemate. Just in time, the Upper Council of Elders reacted and replaced Albert with The Tiger. He was a man of steel, well fitted for the task ahead. He soon realised that the men involved in developing the new engines had to be moved away from The Maker to speed up the introduction of the new and safeguard the future prosperity of the village of Icil. The second book by Alan Edwards, The Chronicle of the Village of Icil, examines life in a dog-eat-dog world of internal strife. He paints a picture of the dangers that result from poor management and the lack of control over robber barons.
