About the authors:

MARIE HOUZELLE

Acclaim for Houzelle's "Tita": "Beautifully written, it is funny, astute and warm, and the locale is very much an enveloping character in the book – you can almost smell the garrigue. A delightful read!" - Tripfiction

“In Houzelle’s first novel, Tita is a seven-year-old girl growing up in the south of France in the 1950s whose life seems to be defined by obstacles: the many foods that disgust her, the school that fails to challenge her, and parents who struggle to understand her. …Through Houzelle’s sharp, straightforward prose (which captures Tita’s perspective), the story of how Tita grows takes center stage.” - Publisher’s Weekly

BARRY KIRWAN

The science fiction Eden Paradox series poses questions about humanity. What if the galaxy is inhabited, and we’re not the smartest kids on the block (the Eden Paradox)? Given our propensity for war and ‘inhumanity’ to our fellow man and woman, how would an advanced alien civilisation judge us (Eden’s Trial)?  If we could genetically advance our children, would it be a good idea (Eden’s Revenge)? And if the galaxy needed us in a time of war, would we be up to the challenge, able to rise above our weaknesses and prejudices (Eden’s Endgame)?  "Outstanding!" "Classic sci-fi"

ADEN ELLIAS
