Description
A tribe on the verge of starvation...
A threat from men’s oldest nightmares...
It’s time to pick a side.
Exploring the forgotten tales of our ancestors, Good Neighbours combines folklore, myth and theology to add a new dimension to the famous historical tales of Great Britain. Touching upon legend as well as facts, this is a comprehensive, fictionalised story that sheds light on how things came to be.
An epic journey through the ages...
Good Neighbours is a fantasy novel woven with the fascinating past of the British population, beginning at the Neolithic era in 7000 BC and spanning more than nine thousand years, to the modern day. The Iron Age, Saxon Invasion and the Normans are just a few of the wide array of topics covered in this unique novel.
Delving into the violent periods of British history, Good Neighbours has a depth of plot and character that will prove a compelling read for fans of both history and fantasy fiction. Inspired by authors such as Milan Kundera, Harper Lee and C. S. Lewis, it provides an action-packed account of both the famous and forgotten aspects of British history, including those that are often omitted from museum displays and conventional accounts. In doing so, it crafts a history of Britain unlike any other...

Advance Praise
"Deftly intertwines myth, religious thought, history and folklore to tell a story that spans an astonishing vast range of time... It is like no other novel I have ever read; it is a fantasy novel, yet it is so much more than that. I can heartily recommend this book."
