Wrong Place, Wrong Time
Wrong Place, Wrong Time a series of science fiction super hero books
Available on
Amazon.co.uk & Amazon.com
Also available on Kobo, Sony, iTunes
, Smashwords, Google, Diesel, Barnes & Noble, and others
The existence of superheroes is revealed when an argument between
two superheroes boils over into chaos at the downtown plaza during late
night Christmas shopping.
The raging battle tears the area apart and terrorizes the shoppers.
Nothing can stop them until they make a terrible mistake!
Sarah Hargreaves is walking through the emerging dawn streets after another night’s work, when she is bundled into the back of a van by six figures dressed in black. She is taken to an underground location, where she is interviewed by a smartly dressed woman and a man from a secret organisation. They have one question:
‘What really happened at the Halloween Party three weeks ago?’
Sarah is forced to retell the terrifying truth. She is an experienced member of Dark Watch, an organisation set up to eliminate the threat from the creatures of the night. On the hunt for a vampire cell, she and her new boyfriend get an invitation to a Halloween Party – the Vampire Special. She suspects that humans will be lulled to their deaths. What happens at the party surprises even her. Who is her new boyfriend?
Hiding in time a superhero, Subject Zero, enjoys the delights of the Wild West; the women, the drink and the fighting. After another night of fun Zero is alerted to the presence of another time traveler who has sought him out across time and space. The traveler is his wife he hasn’t seen for fifty years. She has come to remind him it's their Wedding Anniversary. They discuss old times together and make plans for a reconciliation in the future.
Zero is happy, until a massive time disturbance breaks the peace and Zero and wife are forced to reveal their true powers to the inhabitants of the Wild West town.
Marines and special forces are defeated. Then werewolves and vampires are killed as well. An army of robots easily dispatched. Finally the superhero unit of Accel, Bolt, Psy, Flame and Amazon are defeated and they trudge back through the hot desert skirting past bodies of the other fallen attackers and back to the army base. Alien invaders jeer them home and shout victoriously believing the Earth will soon be theirs.
Earth has one last hope, a man called Subject Zero, else the Earth will be defeated and the alien invasion will begin.
The problem is how do you convince Subject Zero to fight? Time and place for everything he would say. This isn’t his concern.
The complete collection of story stories of Subject Zero.
From his mysterious introduction in Hero's Break to the final revelations in Invaders.

Book Review - The Sheol
A unique and original story that took me on an un-predictable journey as the story keeps you guessing all the way to the end. I loved the contrasts between the two main characters and interpretations of events from their points of view and the contrast added richness to the events. The story creates a new worlds, characters and conflicts I have not seen before. I wanted to read on after the end of the book and looking forward to finding out how the story continues on after such a surprising ending. I worried that some of the events wouldn’t get explained, but all the threads and unanswered question came together at the end to complete the book.
I have would like to have seen more action in terms of Kala showing off her warrior skills. I also would have liked some more interaction with the antagonist, her boss and the array of colour character we only got a brief glimpse of at the beginning. In terms of ratings between a 3-4, but closer to the 4 as the story was very original unpredictable. Overall I enjoyed it.

“Definitely a fresh twist for a vampire story. The premise of the whole story is very interesting. It isn't like your usual vampire novel which is mostly heroine-centric and romance-driven.”

It is such a refreshing change to read a vampire novel that is
different from the standard novel. This is no "Twilight" and as such is
so much the better for it. The characters are strong without being
stereotypes, and it has elements we can all relate to. An enjoyable,
easy to read novel.
