The Man From U.N.D.E.A.D.'s St Valentine's Day Massacre is now available on Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.com for the Kindle.

It's a themed short story starring Agent Ward from the Man From U.N.D.E.AD. series of novels along with some of the other characters from that series.

Here is the blurb

"The United Nations Department for the Enforcement and Apprehension of Demons is the first, last and only line of defence against the supernatural threats trying to break into a world where magic and technology are uneasy bedfellows.

When Agent Ward takes on the case of a break-in at a greetings card factory he could not have imagined that it will pit him against a unique threat in a unique location requiring the strangest use he has ever made of a helicopter.

How else, though, do you deal with the green-slimed monster called Love?

The Man From U.N.D.E.A.D.'s St Valentine's Day Massacre is a short story featuring Agent Ward and other characters from the Man From U.N.D.E.A.D. series of novels."

Enjoy.

E books I have read - Quantum Of Tweed: The Man With The Nissan Micra

The title made me smile and the blurb made this a must buy.

A James Bond pastiche in a very British style, I honestly thought I was going to laugh my socks off when I bought it, but in the end I didn't. What I did do was a smile a lot and that's certainly not something to be sneezed at. Of course, if you don't remember who Bonnie Tyler is then a lot of the humour here is going to be wasted on you.

It's short and the ending felt far too rushed as though trying to come in under a word count or something, but I've had less fun with longer books also marketed as funny.

Moderate your expectations and you'll have a good (short) time.
