  For the very first time in audio, Dudley Sutton reads the pioneering science-fiction serial STORIES OF OTHER WORLDS: A HONEYMOON IN SPACE, written by George Griffith and originally published over 6 parts in Pearson Magazine at the end of the 19th Century in the UK. The adventures, here collected as one audio edition, see his newly married adventurers, exemplars of the “Race that Rules”, exploring planets in different stages of geological and Darwinian evolution on an educational odyssey drawing heavily on earlier cosmic voyages. Very much a product of its time, the stories hold up well against greats such as HG Wells and Conan Doyle. 
  A truly fantastic piece of Victorian science fiction. 
  As an explorer of the real world Griffith shattered the existing record for voyaging around the world at the behest of Sir Arthur Pearson, completing his journey in just 65 days. He also helped discover the source of the Amazon river. He died of cirrhosis of the liver, at the age of 48, in 1906. 
  In this collection, all six original short stories are brought together, and read by the legendary Dudley Sutton (know to so many as Tinker from the Lovejoy TV series): 
  Book 1: A Trip to the Moon 
  Book 2: The World of the War God 
  Book 3: A Glimpse of the Silent Star 
  Book 4: The World of the Crystal Cities 
  Book 5: In Saturn’s Realm 
  Book 6: Homeward Bound

  A tale of psychic powers and those who fear them; one woman, stalked by an enemy across the threads of time… 
  Captain Liz Marlowe has just learned of a horrific Homeworld plot to eradicate the Psychically Augmented population. Though her crew managed to rescue one survivor from the lonely desolation of space, the danger isn’t over yet. In fact, confidential documents from the Homeworld council reveal that Liz is in even more danger than she thought. For Liz has a power that may be the key to erasing the psychic population once and for all … the power of existing throughout time.  
  Elizabeth Marlowe is aware of living in four eras at once. And in each life—from druidic priestess to starship captain—she nurtures a special connection to the threads of power that crisscross the planet: ley lines. In times of danger she has always been able to draw on the power of these lines and hide herself within them. But recently something has soured the Earth’s beautiful music. Elizabeth is haunted by an eerie dissonance that warns of an encroaching enemy, who seems to be pursuing her throughout each life. And she cannot hide forever. Elizabeth will have to open her heart to new allies and prepare to confront her greatest enemy if there is to be any hope for the survival of her people—and herself.

  Since her mother died, Rochelle has known nothing but bad luck. Barely scraping through her studies in between working two jobs, while living with her soon-to-be ex-boyfriend, if he’d only listen to her long enough to hear her say it’s over…it’s all she can do to keep it together. 
  Until she meets Ben, a fellow artist who helps her break free. But Ben has dark secrets of his own, and a past darker than Rochelle can imagine… 
  Buried after a botched ritual, Ben wakes as a gargoyle protector. The gargoyle curse compels him to protect Rochelle, but Ben also has his own mission: to find his lost brothers, hunt down the man who cursed them, and make him pay for his crimes. 
  Ben thought he’d already killed him, but this time, he’s going to make sure he sends the bastard to hell permanently…even if he has to summon the devil himself to do it.
