A quirky exotic family experiences danger, adventure and turbulance at a time when the world as we knew it was turning upsidedown.

'I was born in a lunatic asylum...' into a family of seven. We loved my escapee Russian aunt who absent mindedly left the family jewels in a Moscow railway station, we admired an uncle who tried to commit suicide outside the family home by shooting himself in the foot, and we hugged my darling Uncle Ted who managed to smuggle fireworks from the French Resistance into the blackout dark basement of a house in London at war in order to make his little sister happy. We lived in the turbulent times before WWl and survived the assault of WWll and carried on the fight for right into the 21st century by joining the UN peacekeeping force in Kosovo. We met with the great and the good and the great and the bad. We faced guns and mountain mists aided refugees, drove along roads laced with mines and gave help in refugee camps. We achieved and we failed. My family, my life. 

MY THOUGHTS SO FAR:

The Days of My Life

By Jeannette Ellwood
This is an outstanding first chapter. Rarely does an author so courageously expose truths, realities, day to day struggles, hopes, and fears under Germany’s invasion in the UK.    What excellent narration from a first-hand perspective. 

Backed and awarded high stars.

 MY THOUGHTS SO FAR:

The Secrets Of The Forest “Cosmos 501”
By Neville Kent
“An incantation or enchantment is a charm or spell created using words!” and you manage to do this flawlessly in this wonderfully written fairytale – my inner child was brought out as soon as I started reading and I soon found I couldn’t stop. I read the whole 12 chapters in one sitting captivated, intrigued and lost in this incredibly endearing story of these adorable characters.
I can envisage that it’s just a matter of time before these delightful stories are published and available worldwide.
High stars & WL
