Latticework Teaser: African Moon

Lattice 3: African Moon


Mozart delves into his famous clarinet concerto and she feels her body relax. Out of Africa indeed. That is African sun out there, although in cosmopolitan surroundings. Cape Town on a hot day. Sun worshippers and cell phones, bling and gourmet treats. It could be the French Riviera, for pity’s sake. Karen Blixen would turn in her grave, for certain.

Choosing a Castle!


Which one would you choose?



Latticework Teaser: Fox Tale

Lattice 2: Fox Tale


The fox is a few paces behind her. When she stops so does he. Animals should not talk, not in an ordinary existence, but this is Beam, and nothing is ever as it seems. Animals should not mindspeak, but when was that ever written into law?

“Fine, Sir Fox.” She pushes the oak staff firmly into the earth again. “Speak to the wand.”


Tawny eyes flicked over the staff. That grants you a mere ten questions. I am prepared to answer far more, if only to ease your mind.

Latticework Teaser: Sentinels

Lattice 1: Sentinels


She flies between two pale trees and enters a small dark room. These unheralded shifts occur in a watcher’s world, and thus is she not surprised. The choir and this place are connected, and it is her task to know how and why.


Four men in black clothes sit around a pillar severed at chest height, and they are the ones humming. Hoods hide them as chests rise and fall to the needs of breath and music. The music, the scene and the men instil a darkness in the watcher’s heart. She senses danger.



Latticework, yay!

Destiny wants a sacrifice!



The Tinsal Deck is a mystical deck of tarot cards that effect the fates of many. Zanderin is the darkest influence haunting the streets yet his enigmatic charisma sets him apart, marking him as supreme. He has so many secrets, the greatest one of all is known by the witch Bronwyn. She desires him not just for his abilities as an occultist, but also for the blood flowing in his veins.

The victims run, hide, and converge, and ultimately destiny wants a sacrifice, but fate is not cast in Tinsal stone.

Thunderous Cacophony


Excerpt - The Tinsal Deck:

In the hill country, far beyond the Merripens and their landscaped garden, up in the slopes where mist hangs, the kind that Terra favours for romance and inspiration, there is a stone hut hidden amongst other stones, shaded by trees great and leafy all year. Unless you know of it, you will not find it.
Nearby, a waterfall tumbles into the wide river below, its thunderous cacophony serving to conceal the inadvertent noises which accompany habitation.

An ancient axe hangs above the skewed lintel, but its edge, upon close inspection, is revealed as sharp. Clearly someone does not trust to isolation alone.

A super review! Thank you, Monique!




Planet Fruitcake!


Here's my review for Poppet's Soul Cypher! Too hilarious!

Planet Fruitcake! Yes, indeed, this is exactly where one goes when delving into the pages of Soul Cypher! I read loads of Poppet books, but this one is different, this one is a laugh a second, a snort of surprise every moment. From ‘teletubbies’ and purple alcohol to Reaper the guard ‘dog’ and insane gods, this is a crazy adventure.

Love Taniya’s voice! Really, really wish I have the gumption she has, the ability to totally speak her mind and never mind the consequences! Understand, though, folk will be looking at you as if you are utterly mad when you begin to giggle … never mind, Amrak will zap them!


Seriously folks, looking for something different? Soul Cypher is it. Loads of laughs, hugely clever, and an awesome quest also. Brilliant!
