New Addition to List Cements Position of Copyhouse Press as Emerging Player in UK Publishing

LONDON - Nov. 10, 2015 - PRLog -- Nigerian literary talent Mike Effa joined Copyhouse Press this week, bringing his off-beat chiller "The Mysterious Liver" to the roster of one of the UK's emerging publishing industry players.

"The Mysterious Liver" is a strong slice of ethnofiction - infused with the vibrancy of the emerging Nigerian fiction scene and delivered in the assured nuanced tones of one of that scene's primary voices. It boasts everything from human tragedy to sociological satire, and cloaks itself throughout in a visceral suspense / horror veneer but has much, much more to say than just splatterings of gore. It is a quirky masterpiece and a worthy introduction to one of the most dynamic emerging English-language literary markets in Africa.


Mike Effa joins a growing list at Copyhouse that is proving more and more successful over time:

"The Unknown Truth" by Annette Labelle has sold in significant numbers in her native Canada and has attracted local and national media attention there...

"The Olive Tree" by Cornish author Deborah Anderson soared into Amazon's Top 100 in its genre on its first day of release...

"Played" by Jessica McWilliams continues to make an impact in the YA genre...

"To Bathe in Eden's Glory" by Christopher Cass has just been dubbed "The Greatest Novel Ever Written About the Great War" by observers and has won plaudits from experts for its realistic depictions of trench warfare. Cass' epic has been compared to the work of -among others - Ernest Hemingway and Sebastian Faulkes...

Johannesburg resident Jyri Hamalainen became the first author ever to release two novels simultaneously in both physical and ebook formats in all major global markets on the same day...

Argent Hellion's forthcoming fantasy epic "Atharon:Exordium" continues to attract growing interest, particularly in the Far East - even though it does not go on sale until March 2016...

In short, it has been an incredible year for Copyhouse Press.

"Having Mike Effa on our list boosts our profile in the burgeoning Nigerian market while also opening that market up to the wider anglophone world. This adds to the Copyhouse brand in ways that only serve to strengthen our position as one of the UK's premier providers of publishing and author assistance services." said John Lawrence, Head of Client Services at Copyhouse Press.
