Heaps Of Free Fantasy Books!

I decided to kick off May in style, and you can now grab a 5 chapter preview of The Last Of The Navel Navigators in 3 different Instafreebie Book Giveaways.

Navel Navigators...a feast for the senses!

See!  A young boy with a magic bellybutton get adopted by eleven-fingered banjo-strumming hillbillies.

Hear!  The unsettling noise of air escaping, as one of the young boy's travelling companions accidentally punctures a giant inflatable planet.

Touch!  An unsightly witchy-fingered pumpkin-clad Thingimagist (though don't blame me if you suddenly sprout extra eyeballs in unexpected places)

Taste!  Hideous hunchback cuisine, served from the waiters glistening humps.

Smell!  Brian the goat.  He's very, very stinky.

And if a Navel Navigators Sampler isn't enough to wet your whistle/grab your goat/prop up your under-inflated pudding, this is a great opportunity to read hundreds of indie fantasy novels for free (they're all available in epub/mobi/pdf format).  Heck, there's even a free 'Vikings Versus Unicorns' comic up for grabs, which comes with its own youtube Death Rock Anthem!  Some, like mine, are previews, but the majority are the full novel.

First up on the giveaways list we have the Fantasy Extravaganza, which features over 130 fantasy books.



You can check out the Fantasy Extravaganza, which runs between May 1- May 15 here:  https://claims.instafreebie.com/gg/Z11V5Ao0Ck0gZBcH8HM4

Next up, it's the Once Upon A Time Giveaway with fantasy books that feature fairy tales and magical creatures (though I'll warrant that my book is probably the only one to feature Beard Pixies)



This particular giveaway features over a hundred books, runs until the end of May and can be scrutinised here: https://claims.instafreebie.com/gg/ezy52GT0l9qPOjjgo9QZ

And finally we have the Clean Fantasy Creatures Reads, featuring over 70 fantasy books which are suitable for younger readers (as well as adults, in most cases).



This giveaway lasts until the end of June, so plenty of time to check out the link: https://claims.instafreebie.com/gg/m2qxBohIaW3I5NEbNG3d

Incidentally, the full version of The Last Of The Navel Navigators is currently on sale for just 99p in almost every digital store, including Kindle, iBooks, Kobo and Google Play.  Here's the stores link: books2read.com/navelnavigators1

The Last Of The Navel Navigators is out now!

Once upon a time, there was a mad-eyed tea drinking Englishman who wrote down some crazy, feverish scribblings involving a young hillbilly with a magic bellybutton, who travels the universe with his goat, Brian.
Those very same scribblings were awarded a distinction at the university of Chichester, as part of a creative writing MA, which goes to show that even distinguished lecturers love a stinky old goat (and wizards. Let's not forget the overweight wizard whose beard is infested with pixies!)

Anyway, that same aforementioned mad-eyed tea drinking Englishman (with a rather dashing beard - no pixies in this one!) has finally managed to wrangle all the scribblings together into the form of a children's book, which goes by the title: 'The Last Of The Navel Navigators'. It is now available to buy (in print, and digital) on Amazon, Kindle, Kobo, iBooks, Nook and a few other places. You can even read a short sample taken from the first two chapters on some of those sites.

Here's the blurb...

"Discovered in a swamp and raised by hillbillies, Jellybean 'Gator Bait' Skratcher soon learns he has the astounding ability to open portals to other worlds, using his bellybutton.

He sets out on an epic adventure across a hostile universe, led by a scatterbrained stork who's made it his mission in life to deliver Jellybean to the right parents, or die trying.

But when your best friend's a goat, and your greatest hope for survival relies solely upon a talentless magician who can only do card tricks, nothing is likely to go as planned!" So, dust off your pyjamas, grab yourself a goat, and get poking that bellybutton! It's time to embark upon the ultimate hillbilly bellybutton odyssey!
