After a devastating global pandemic, the world has gone quiet. She hasn''t seen another living soul for weeks, just the piles of corpses lining the streets. With an enthusiastic dog named Scram, a photo of her wife, and the memory of an old friend at her side, she hikes across Europe to answer one question: has her family survived?
An unsettling presence watches her from the shadows. As she walks through empty cities being reclaimed by nature, she grows less certain that the yellow-eyed creature is just a figment of her imagination.
What Survives takes readers on a gripping journey of grief, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of life.

Every night, a man lights the stars. He walks with a limp. He''s old and grey, and he climbs his endless ladder with unsteady, wobbly steps. He strikes the flint and steel from his tinderbox until the waxed wick of his lighting pole burns. He hopes - against all reason - that the flame won''t blow out as he climbs to the sky.
The Man who Lights the Stars is a collection of 24 short stories perfect for wintry months. Enjoy these stories with a cup of hot chocolate in front of the fire, or let them wrap you in that cosy feeling on your daily commute.
Taking you from a children''s nativity play, through snowfall in the city, to distant magical lands - there''s a story here for the whole family.

When a baby is born, the doctor will say, "Congratulations, it''s a girl!" or whatever your child is, quickly followed by, "Do you want the display?" The parents will cry, hug each other and the baby, and most of them will say, "Yes, of course! Of course, Doctor." And then they will wait anxiously, and hope that the baby''s time doesn''t run out while the display is being connected. Sometimes it does, of course. They give you your money back, then.
About Time is a collection of short speculative and science-fiction stories that explore life and death in augmented bodies, memories, endings and the strange nature of belief.
