THE ROAD TO STANLEY was originally published as the second half of CASSANDRA’S SONG and appears in its separate form in the interests of making a very long book more palatable, and hopefully digestible to readers!

SMOKE ON THE WATER is the third book in the five-book strand about the FALKLANDS WAR OF 1969-70, and the nineteenth book of the core MAIN SERIES OF TIMELINE 10/27/62. It is November 1969 in a world in which the swinging sixties never happened because the Cuban Missiles Crisis turned the Cold War ‘hot’ on the night of 27 October 1962 and the survivors have been living, and fighting it seems, ever since. Only that spring there had been reasons for optimism at last. In the seventh year of the post-cataclysm era there was a new President in the White House, peace in Western Europe, the ...

In a timeline altered by the Cuban Missiles War of October 1962, a British Task Force is gathering in the South Atlantic to take back the Falkland Islands from the Argentine invaders.

New York - July 1976 - in a world in which New England remains the sparkling jewel in the crown of the British Empire. It is the day before Empire Day - July 4 - the day each year when the British Empire marks the brutal crushing of the rebellion dignified by the treachery of the 56 delegates to the Continental Congress who were so foolhardy as to sign the infamous Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia on that day of infamy in 1776.

CASSANDRA’S SONG is the fourth book in the five-book strand about the FALKLANDS WAR OF 1969-70, and the twentieth book of the core MAIN SERIES OF TIMELINE 10/27/62. The waters around the Falkland Islands have turned into a windswept, storm-tossed killing ground as the troops have gone ashore. In the absence of the Hermes, half-crippled eight hundred miles away at Leith Harbour, South Georgia and the its screening nuclear submarines, an astonished world has seen the Argentine Navy and Air Force hurl itself at the South Atlantic Task Force in a paroxysm of near suicidal violence. Thousand ...

WON’T GET FOOLED AGAIN is the fifteenth book in the core MAIN SERIES OF TIMELINE 10/27/62. Readers: please be aware that this book was originally published as a much longer novel, which as of November 2025 was split into two parts, the second part being published separately as BEAR IN THE SKY. ________ It is February 1968 in a world in which the swinging sixties never happened because the Cuban Missiles Crisis of October 1962 went catastrophically wrong. Since the cataclysm struck, obliterating great and historic cities, laying waste to great swathes of the northern hemisphere, the threat...

STUMBLING TOWARDS THE EDGE is the seventeenth book in the core MAIN SERIES OF TIMELINE 10/27/62. It was originally – and confusingly, me culpe – published as a standalone novel but rightly belongs to the five-book strand about the FALKLANDS WAR OF 1969-70. It is February 1969. It is the seventh year after Cuban Missiles war derailed the modern world. In this altered timeline the swinging sixties did not happen and ever since the night of the October War in 1962, the survivors have lurched from one crisis to the next, often looking over their shoulders at the threat of new holocausts. At...

BEAR IN THE SKY is the sixteenth book in the core MAIN SERIES OF TIMELINE 10/27/62. BEAR IN THE SKY was originally published as the second half of WON’T GET FOOLED AGAIN and appears now in its separate form in the interests of making what was originally a humongously very long book more palatable, and hopefully digestible to readers! ________ There is always the unexpected; the best laid plans never seem to go quite the way they are supposed to go. Especially, in the still dysfunctional outer regions of the once-great Soviet empire. It is election year in the United States but a new ...

The British Empire has sleepwalked, unprepared into war with the Triple Alliance, the Spanish colonies of the Caribbean and Central America. But this is not to be a war like those which have gone before it; wars decided by crushing British sea power and eventually, on land by the superiority of the logistics and tactics of relatively small colonial armies in the South Western badlands. Remember Brave Achilles becomes the call to arms.

It is the late spring of 1978 in a world in which the American Revolution failed in 1776 after George Washington was killed and the Continental Army was destroyed at the Battle of Long Island. The rumbling aftershocks of the Empire Day atrocities which reverberated through Two Hundred Lost Years are threatening to come to the boil. While in Philadelphia the politics become ever more fractious in Spain the Royal Alcazar is a citadel besieged in a country which might as well still be stuck in the 19th century.

This is the story of Abu Ghraib that you haven't heard, told by the soldier sent by the Army to restore order and ensure that the abuses that took place there never happen again. In April 2004, the world was shocked by the brutal pictures of beatings, dog attacks, sex acts, and the torture of...

It is January 1964 in an alternative timeline in which the Swinging '60s never happened. A little over a year has passed since the Cuban Missile Crisis of late October 1962. Red Dawn, spawned as Josef Stalin's answer to America's atomic monopoly in the late 1940s, has fomented full-scale insurrection in Washington, DC, and almost sparked a war between the world's two remaining nuclear superpowers. But the real fury of Red Dawn - Krasnaya Zarya - is unspent, and time is running out. Now is a time for charismatic leaders to come forward....
