It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman in possession of a free mind, must be in want of a superhero. Pride and Prejudice and Superheroes is the first book in my sci-fi/English-classics mashup trilogy before the second book Skylar Holmes: The Last Hope and; and the third book, Starship Wuthering Heights. Read T. J. P. Campbell's popular novel merging Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice with cinematic space opera sci-fi. Can the characters of Pride and Prejudice save the Earth from an alien invasion? They may have a chance as a third-party alien race called the Equalisers gifts them an array of superpowers and a starship. Pride and Prejudice and Superheroes is a 135,000 word mash-up sci-fi/Regency superhero novel by T. J. P. Campbell. "This novel is a must for readers who wish to experience the English language in all its creative and stylish splendour. Expect to revisit all your favourite Austen characters as well as Campbell's fascinating newly created ones. Moreover, even in a world of superpowers and starships, Mrs Bennet is determined to win what she sees as the 'War of Marriage' and see her daughters somehow married off to wealthy men." **This Wattpad novel version shows the opening handful of chapters which is less than 10% of the full novel as I am selling through KDP (Amazon/Kindle)** The Equalisers Series (A Trilogy) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0C1GJG372 Pride and Prejudice and Superheroes Available at Amazon on June 6, 2023 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0C1DWRF4L Cheers, T.

Dragons like princesses. Everyone knows that. But the kingdom of Teana is pretty lacking in maids of the royal variety - which must be why Alannah finds herself tied to a pole, surrounded by sheep, and in the most ridiculous white dress she's ever seen. Only she's not a princess; she's a witch. And she's not interested in being another notch on this dragon's belt. All she wants is get back to her Grandmother's shop, and back to her normal life. But she's days from home, and her only assistance is a blundering knight-in-training, a recently captured slave - and the dragon, who follows them around like a curious puppy. A large, dangerous puppy that can look human whenever it chooses - yeah, she's definitely in trouble. BETA/DRAFT: All rights reserved. Visit www.lemedlock.com for information on upcoming stories.

[COMPLETED] My grandmother is a witch. My mother is a witch. My sisters are witches. Even my daddy is a warlock when he's not moonlighting as a rat (a consequence of the aforementioned grandmother's temper). So you would think I would be a witch too, right? Nope. Not a spark of magic resides in my fingertips, and even worse, I'm beginning to think I'm allergic to magic. Kind of a big problem when you live in the middle of the most magical town in Mississippi. I'm just biding my time until I turn eighteen. Then, I can pack my bags and move out into the real world- with the normal humans. Until then, I just have to survive my grandmother's experiments, my sister's nasty temper, and the charms of the town's bad boy, Ash Goodwin. Easy...ier said than done.
