Wattys 2024 Shortlist and sequel to the Wattys 2021 winning story (Sci-Fi category), "Foston Slacks - Time's Flies". Foston and Clara saved the multiverse, which was great, because Clara was the one that endangered it in the first place. Afterward, Foston left her back in her drab, boring, humdrum, safe life. For all of a few hours. Now he's back, with a new, adorable and cuddly face with news that the multiverse is in danger, which was probably also because of Clara. With time running out, and Time helping out, Clara and Foston must seek out the source of all the trouble. Well, the other source. Travelling through space and time, exploring strange new worlds, seeking out new ... wait ... wrong franchise. To save the multiverse, Clara must go to Hell and back (not a euphemism), to a world populated by very familiar people and to a Tibetan monastery two hundred years in the past where both cricket and jazz are invented far too early. Foston and Clara. Together again to save the multiverse. Again. Cover created in Canva, using stock pictures from Pixabay.

Inspired by true events, 'The Blue Hour' is a story of political intrigue and doomed love set in the dying days of the Ottoman Empire during the summer of 1876. All Prince Hamid and the Belgian glove-maker, Flora Cordier, want is to pursue their forbidden love. But how can they amid backroom dealings, deadly conspiracies, and when an ominous prophecy seals Hamid's fate as the saviour of the Empire? ***** It's the summer of 1876, and rebellion, corruption, famine, and the impending threat of war plague the Ottoman Empire. As European powers circle like vultures for spoils, the century-old dynasty fears Allah has abandoned it. Presiding over the decline is the deranged Sultan Abdulaziz. A prophecy emerges that Hamid, second heir to the throne, will ascend to sultan-hood by summer's end. Fearing for his life and haunted by an inner darkness, he flees the palace. Meanwhile, Hamid's step-mother Peresto, and his enigmatic tutor, Reshid, conspire to fulfil the prophecy by betraying the Sultan and Hamid's step-brother, Crown Prince Murad. Intoxicated by love and freedom, Hamid pursues a secret affair with Flora Cordier, about to marry a man she does not love to escape her past. Over a few passionate summer months, they fight for their forbidden love to become the persons they dream of being, in defiance of society and of the powerful forces of history that conspire to drive them apart. Intimate and intensely atmospheric, 'The Blue Hour' encapsulates eternal themes of love, power, and the struggle for freedom. Blending the epic romance of 'Doctor Zhivago' with the rich historical detail and political intrigue of a Jason Goodwin novel, it is entertaining and vividly immersive, with deep emotional resonance. COMPLETED.

Kazerin, on the other hand, is not prepared for what awaits him when he answers Ellie's request.

Follow Ellie and Kaz in an alternate history where Others-- demons, vampires, angels, shifters, and many more beings-- roam the earth, magic is alive and burning bright, and blood runs deeper than just our ancestry.
