Warriors have traversed the sea passage between the Shetland Islands and Norway from the Vikings to World War 2 and beyond. On both shores there have been death and intrigue. Unlikely wizard John B. Stewart and his beloved Q discover that hasn''t changed. What they find is murder, mysticism, and an unexpected old mate.

The most powerful ancient talisman in the world is being used in a bizarre quest to correct history. But when the violence strikes too close to home John B. must pit his dubious magic against guns, bombs, and the old magic of the Norsemen.

21st Century Maine still has a lot of old world charm. But some echoes of the past are anything but benign. Monsters on land and sea. A band of unlikely but ruthless pirates. A storm at sea, and the real prospect of a watery grave.

In their search for family history and family treasure, John B. Stewart and his beloved Elizabeth, together with old friends and new, find much more than they''d expected - perhaps even more than the wizard''s strange power of dubious magic can contend with.

A golfing holiday in Hawaii for accidental wizard John B. Stewart and his sceptical best mate Wilko - what could possibly go wrong?

Plenty, when a mysterious killer stalks the Big Island, and a human sacrifice could have earth-shaking consequences. Literally!

Birdies and bogeys. Ghosts. Explosions. Maybe even romance in the air. But is John B.''s dubious magic enough to stop a volcano from destroying the island, and everyone on it?

Frankenstein 200 Dare-winning author Renoir launches his not-too-serious urban fantasy series with a story that tips its hat to H P Lovecraft, Douglas Adams and the Aussie Outback!

After too many whiskys and a blow to the head, seemingly ordinary office worker John B. Stewart discovers he''s a wizard (or else has an extraordinary gift for coincidence). He stumbles onto a bizarre plot that threatens the whole planet Earth. After repeated attempts on his life he heads from Canberra to a secret base in the South Australian desert, accompanied by three mismatched friends and an overweight Persian cat.

Armed with courage, determination, a few antique weapons, a bottle of Scotch and John B.''s dubious magic, they must do battle with a mad sorceress, angry soldiers and an ancient terrifying evil that may consume the entire world.

No wonder he needs a drink...

If you die in a dream, do you die for real? It seems like it. John B. and company are in Scotland – home of strong spirits of more than one kind – where someone is using a remarkable power to gain a different sort of power. And what secrets do the three old sisters know?
