Toby Travis has had a run of bad luck, the worst part, completely failing to make his school's soccer team. Opening an old chest in the attic, Toby finds a pair of very old soccer boots and also releases the ghost of his deceased father. Within days, he has found love with the girl next door and is on his way to becoming part of the team. Is magic being weaved or has love given Toby his newfound confidence? With the biggest match in the school's history coming up, things go awry. Can Toby turn things around and score both on and off the pitch?
When gangs of rioters, political activists and religious extremists descend on a small English town, stirred by corrupt politicians and officials, bent on bringing down the fabric of society, who will stand in their way? It's left to two amateur detectives, a gay marine, an escaped mental patient, oh, and a group of heavily armed Girl Guides. Not one of them under 70! Sleuths is a riotous story of crooked men who plot to destroy the British government, abolish the monarchy and shut down the bars. Their carefully laid plans suffer a hiccup when they arrest Lady Wilsbrough, a woman with more connections than a Google server and a late husband who hoarded more weapons than many small countries have. Her neighbours, Cathy and Lynda, aspiring detectives, who have their fingers on the pulse of the neighbourhood, particularly the men, get together with gay, transvestite marine Trevor and Wilsbrough's son, Oswald, a recent inmate of an institution for the laughably insane.Together with a grizzled hospital matron and the toughest bunch of girl guides ever to tote arms, they set out to right the wrongs and restore order. But with corrupt policemen, hapless MI5 agents and a rabid deluded sheikh to contend with, it's going to be an uphill struggle that can only end in a battle royale!Some unlikely allies come forth together with some sinister foes. One thing's for sure, the little town of Warminster, along with the halls of Westminster, will never be the same again. It is said the first casualty of war is the truth! Not when you arm enthusiastic pensioners with submachine guns and mortars, it isn't!Will the mismatched group prevail, or will the forces of the greedily evil play the final ace up their sleeve?
What happens when a group of battle-hardened medieval warriors meets an army of Zombies? Attempting to concoct a cure for the plague, medieval alchemists have created a horde of deadly ghouls. Standing in their way is a band of English soldiers, stranded in France, bent on destroying them.Young and fearless knight Sir William Faulkner and his friend Justin des Ferrers have fought across the battlefields of Flanders and France at the start of the Hundred Years War and gained the favour of English King Edward III.When a traitor plots to undermine the king, William and Justin became embroiled in one of the most dastardly conspiracies of 14th Century Europe, which leads to an attack on William's estate and an assault on his wife.Thirsting for revenge, Faulkner and his men ride with the army to the battle of Crecy, where he argues with Edward and is exiled. When he and his men are employed as mercenaries, they come across the vivimorts, the result of alchemist's attempts to cure the black death; a walking dead that create havoc and death among the people. There are worse mutations to come as the French king, Philip, uses the monsters as a weapon. England itself is in peril and the group of men must cross France in an attempt to stop the demonic multitude.
