Christmas by Misadventure
Connor was not exactly what you might call a good little boy. Not a good little boy at all, and not a nice little boy either. His misdeeds and misdoings were the bane of his town, though to his friends he was a quick-witted and able leader, and to his family sometimes he was a real hero (or so they thought). Little did he know that his mischief would one day lead him to become trapped in the midst of a centuries-old feud between malevolent beings of childhood dreams and loathsome nightmares. Still, his endless search for trouble to get into knew no limits, and he wasn’t going to be put off by a little thing like that.
‘Christmas by Misadventure’ is a darkly humorous Christmas horror novella.
Martifius: The Wizard of the Eastwood
​
Martifius was a wizard. A very bored wizard. Bored, and thoroughly fed up with his lot. His life as a wizard had just not panned out the way he had been expecting when he first learned of his talent all those years ago. His dream of visiting mysterious and magnificent far-off worlds and doing great and glorious deeds had long since been shattered into a billion tiny pieces of insignificant tedium. His expectation of becoming a mystical and mythical hero for children to sing songs about long after his days had really not been realised at all. His existence had been utterly and interminably dull for a very long time, and his powerful and merciless fraternity made livening it up pretty much impossible. Still, at least the pay was good!
A simple, humorous tale about one wizard and all that has gone wrong with his life, with wizarding in general, and with the galactic transport industry.
Martifius: The Wizard of the Eastwood is the debut novella from new author T.C. Filburn. Available now for the Kindle.
