Muddleton
Muddleton is a comic novel about the Hogg-Marchmont family – a dysfunctional and delusional aristocratic dynasty – as they desperately try to save their beloved ancestral home from demolition. When Hogg Hall is condemned by the local council and ordered to be torn down, Earl Hardy Hogg-Marchmont, head of the family, thinks challenging the council will be a wasted effort, until he is visited by the furious ghosts of his ancestors, who convince him to put up a fight. Spanning a period of two hundred and fifty years, Muddleton describes the history of this hapless family from the middle of the 18th century to the present day. It’s a tale of absurdity, supernatural encounters and surreal events, making it a truly unforgettable read.

Endless Luff
From mole hills to baskets of eggs, from Lucifer to Ghenghis Khan, this latest slim volume of poetry from Brian Luff will take you to the very edge of the universe and beyond. If you like mythical beasts and launderettes, meteorites and Cheshire cats, be sure to read this book before the arrival of the apocalypse.
Beauty and the Beast
The kids will love this brand new version of Beauty & the Beast, which sticks firmly to the original fairy story, while at the same time introducing plenty of fresh and original ideas.

Plus, good and bad fairies, ugly sisters (showing up in the wrong panto) and a cheeky talking sheep called Lampard. A licence must be obtained in order to perform this pantomime.

Maximum Mini
This book focuses solely on the cars derived from the classic Mini. Small GTs, sports cars, roadsters and fun cars: Mini-derivatives that changed the specialist motoring market completely in the early sixties, and new designs kept it busy for nearly four decades. from the well known Mini Marcos and Unipower GT that raced at Le Mans, to the very obscure but as exciting Coldwell GT or Sarcon Scarab, almost 60 cars are thoroughly researched, described and photographed in this book.
Jack and the Magical Beanstalk
There's plenty of fast banter, funny patter and ridiculous rhyme to enjoy in this traditional panto script by Channel 4 comedy writer Brian Luff. It's a script packed with great new comedy routines. Hapless palace guards Kosh & Bosh have numerous opportunities to show off their comic chemistry, including a messy gym scene, a "Standing Very Still" sketch and a pacy routine about a bunch of "Spies Behind the Pork Pies". Meanwhile, Dame Plump & her farmhand Charlie perform an hilarious sketch called "Counting Potatoes", which may turn out to be a bit of a panto classic. Charlie also hooks up with handsome hero Jack for a very funny "Eye Test" routine. Jack and the Magical Beanstalk is traditional family pantomime at its very best.
