I'm the Author!
I would first of all like to thank Robbie in Scotland and Maje from America for sending in their thoughts on the story. It is appreciated very, very much. Thank you. I'm so glad you like the story and that you feel involved when reading it. I wanted the story to draw children into the feeling of what it is like to fly and for the story itself to be a story of encouragement for children (and ...

Mind warp
I'm not a big reader and usually give up on a book if it doesn't draw me in, in the first few pages but I could relate to the editorial on the back page and wanted to read on. The thought of leaving our mundane jobs and paying bills, to seek adventure in foreign lands, always returns to haunt us through different stages of our lives. I did just that years ago, but only lasted six weeks until the ...

Fascinating Saga
It's amazing to realize that a woman, by herself, can bike around the world. This account of her experiences is fascinating and one can only imagine the courage it took to make this trip. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has a dream and seeks the inspiration to realize it.

Jerome Griffin
Upfront Publishing, 2002
Excellent historical fiction
In 'The Flight of the Earls' Jerome Griffin has done an admirable job of researching and documenting one of the most colorful periods in Irish history. He places real characters (the earls of Ulster - Hugh O'Neill and Red Hugh O'Donnell) in real situations and events, fills in the blanks intelligently, and has produced an entertaining and accurate account of the turmoil in Ireland leading up to ...

Paul Vincent
Upfront Publishing, 2002
A delight and a page turner.
This is the first book in a long time that I have read in one go. It kept me amused for a flight and the first day of my holiday. Very funny, very light and just a little bit gritty to give it spice.
50 Things You Can Do Today To Beat Depression
2 reviews
Paul Vincent
Upfront Publishing Ltd., 2006
A Shot In The Arm
This is a brave little book that recognises that many depressive people aren't going to want to wade through hundreds of densely argued pages or endless chapters of waffle. We need help now, so it gets straight to the point and throws likeable bright ideas at the reader thick and fast, some of which I had come across but most of which were new to me. The concepts mostly fall into three ...

Anne's Life
The life of Anne and her mother takes you through the life of Multiple Personality Disorder. Grief, confusion, suicide, miscarriage, marriage, lies, war and rape all gave birth to a struggle that still continues. While not suffering as she suffers I was able to find parrallels and understanding through her plainly spoken words and experiences. More than anything "Kill the Child" explains the ...

Pig Production: Science and Technology
4 reviews
Irvin Mpofu
Upfront Publishing, 2003
Pragmatic book
I am a lecturer in Agricultural Economics and a Commercial Farmer who has keen interest in many species of livestock, pigs included. I therefore took a lot of interest in Dr Mpofu's book on Pig Production Science and Technology and on the whole, I am NOT at all disappointed for spending money on it. It is a book full of very practical issues and concepts. In situations where theoretical ...
Rufus Who

Kester Branford
Upfront Publishing, 2003
An essential mystery
Unexpectedly, this delicious novel bears two basic Kafkaesque marks: an initial and a terminal analogy to The Trial. The first one is that the plot begins in a maze of procedural absurdity. As for the second mark, let me say cryptically (using a riddle so as not to give away the denouement) that, zoologically speaking, Rufus in a sense terminally outdoes Joseph K. (The blank in the names of both ...

This book is definately worth a good read!
I ordered this book out of mere curiousity and it really exceeded my expectations. From Intellectual, Interesting, Page-turner, Dramatic, Explosive, Unbelievable: all words I would use to describe this wonderful read. Highly recommended! This book will get you thinking about all types of things: good, evil, our government, our prison systems. The end is the best and afterwards, you will want to ...

Spanning over 25 years the writing covers ...

Frank Price
Upfront Publishing, 2002
Not put Down-able
Sir Frank Price, who I'd never heard of, unfolds his rags to riches life-story in such a way that you can see the places, hear the voices and smell the smells. He speaks of his dealings with the Royal Family and some of the famous politicians I can remember from the 60's and the 70's, in exactly the same way as he tells us about his family, and the characters around him in the slums of ...

Romantic adventure spanning two continents. Engaging.
A capitivating adventure and romance novel. I was at once taken in by the authors style. A book clearly written by one who has experienced much of what she writes about.
Madison's Song
1 review
Kay Plowman
Upfront Publishing, 2004
Real life emotional drama for the educated diva
Madison's Song is a lovely, easy read that flows very naturally. It is witty, emotionally intelligent and well observed, and Madison's personal journey will resonate with many readers. I found myself getting very involved in the lives of the characters, especially Madison's, perhaps because she is a singer like me, and also because she is so ruled by her heart and not her head. Consequently, I ...

A new evolutionary theory
The author challenges neo-Darwinism that organisms changed through mutation and maintained their existence through the survival of the fittest. The author re-evaluates the work of men like Lamarck,with his ideas about the heredity of acuired characteristics, Goethe and his Morphology of Life, Haeckel and the Recapitulation Theory in ontogeny, as well as Roux and his Entwicklungsmechanik. He ...

Fekkin Great!
Paula Gilfedder has written a wonderful and touching story of many levels. Crafted in such a way as to appeal to the excitement of children, yet offer a deeper truth to an adult. She has proven that Ireland still has many poets amongst its midst's and that there are still authors with something to say. I look forward to her next project.
