The Other Side of the Bed
What happens when the love of your life belongs to someone else? For more than two decades, Nia loved a man who never slept in her bed - but never left her heart either. She gave him her loyalty, her body, her silence, and her belief that love could someday change his mind. But every night, he returned to a life that wasn't hers, while she remained stuck in the shadow of a promise that would never be fulfilled. The Other Side of the Bed: Loving Someone Who Sleeps Next to Another is a raw, emotionally honest memoir-style novel about choosing yourself after years of choosing someone who could never fully choose you. Through passion, heartbreak, therapy, motherhood, faith, and finally healing, Nia learns that love without freedom is not love at all - it's a slow, quiet form of self-betrayal. This story explores the emotional aftermath of holding onto a man who belongs to another woman, the lies we tell ourselves to survive love, and the courage it takes to finally walk away from what feels like everything. This is not just a love story. It's a survival story. A story for anyone who has ever waited too long, loved too hard, or lost themselves trying to make someone else love them back. From the highs of passion to the depths of emotional devastation, this book speaks to women and men who have lived through complicated love, toxic attachment, and the painful realization that sometimes love isn't enough.

Shadows on the Hillside
An anthology featuring stories that take the reader deep into the strangeness of the landscape, where reality flickers like summer's heat. An empty car with a door hanging open by an endless field of wheat; shimmering heat at midsummer, when something walks unseen in the sunlight; a sense of presence in the view below you as you reach the crest of a hill and look down upon... a story yet untold.

The anthology is dysfunctional in all its lucidity, where summer evenings stretch and stark black hills deadstare against a blood sky at weathered sandhills and tors in a beauty of heartache and place." - Aurealis

Miracles of Our Own Making
A bewitching and authoritative historical overview of magic in the British Isles, from the ancient peoples of Britain to the rich and cosmopolitan landscape of contemporary paganism. "An absolute must for anyone interested in the development of paganism in the modern world. I cannot recommend this book enough."--Janet Farrar, coauthor of A Witches' Bible "At last, we have a history of British Paganism written from the inside, by somebody who not only has a good knowledge of the sources, but explicitly understands how Pagans and magicians think."--Ronald Hutton, author of The Triumph of the Moon and The Witch What do we mean by "paganism"--druids, witches, and occult rituals? Healing charms and forbidden knowledge? Miracles of Our Own Making is a historical overview of pagan magic in the British Isles, from the ancient peoples of Britain to the rich and cosmopolitan landscape of contemporary paganism. Exploring the beliefs of the druids, Anglo-Saxons, and Vikings, as well as Elizabethan Court alchemy and witch trials, we encounter grimoires, ceremonial magic, and the Romantic revival of arcane deities. The influential and well-known--the Golden Dawn, Wicca, and figures such as Aleister Crowley--are considered alongside the everyday "cunning folk" who formed the magical fabric of previous centuries. Ranging widely across literature, art, science, and beyond, Liz Williams debunks many of the prevailing myths surrounding magical practice, past and present, while offering a rigorously researched and highly accessible account of what it means to be a pagan today.

Phosphorus
Far across the sands of Mars, deep within the walls of a dead city, something stirs; an awakening that threatens to return a malice so ancient it is no longer remembered, except in darkest legend… Winterstrike is at war and the target of deadly bombardment. Even so, the last thing Canteley expects is for her mother to send her away, and in the company of her formidable aunt at that. Aunt Sulie is a member of the ruling Matriarchy, who wrap secrets around them as thick as winter snowfall. When Sulie takes her to the abandoned city of Tharsis, Cateley little imagines that the trip will unearth secrets long hidden and reveal the truth behind her own past. Recurring images of a blood red tower standing in the shadow of Olympus Mons have haunted her dreams. Now, at last, she has the chance to discover what they mean. In Phosphorus, Liz Williams returns to the harsh Mars of her critically acclaimed novels Banner of Souls (shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clarke Award) and Winterstrike, delivering a tale laden with mystery and menace, as the Red Planet’s bloody past and troubled present collide.
