In a city where stories are forbidden, a storyteller takes revenge on the bandit king who removed his tongue. An advisor to the court of Catherine the Great is called upon to investigate a murder in a locked room in which the only suspect is a chess-playing automaton. A Georgian taxidermist invites four London orphans to spend the evening with him, the same evening each and every year. A communist bureaucrat attempts to resurrect his dead son through creative errors in accounting. In a narrative cycle that stretches from ancient Asia Minor to the last days of humanity, The People Factory presents a host of characters, disparate lives connected by the inescapable human need to create and control.

New friends come along in all shapes and sizes and often at the most unexpected of times. It's very rare for new friends to be knocked out of the sky by a passing TV satellite and fall to earth in the allotments behind your house. It's also quite rare for new friends to have wings, a glowing halo and powers that are out of this world...

Razvan Popescu lives in a flat overlooking the seaside town of Skegness. He keeps himself to himself and few know the man at all. Even fewer know his past, which he has tried to leave behind in the Romanian woods. But when a tattooed man is found murdered on the beach, it is clear that some of that past has followed him to this tacky seaside town. As battle erupts within the criminal fraternity, dark forces gather around the town and Popescu's acquaintances find themselves dragged into a world of violence, fire and fairy tales. One thing is certain: the circus has come to town. Ten To One is a novel writing project in which ten authors write a novel together, seeking the approval of a judging panel and a public vote to keep their character in the story. Circ, the first Ten To One novel, is written by Simon Fairbanks, Maria Mankin, Yasmin Ali, Jason Holloway, Livia Akstein Vioto, Luke Beddow, Danielle Rose Bentley, William Thirsk-Gaskill, Sue Barsby and Giselle Thompson.

When Rose and Violet were brought to the orphanage as babies, no one knew where they had come from or who they truly were. But years later, something has come for Rose and carried her away. With only her horse and an automaton bear to help her, Violet must cross the sea to the Empty City and the castle of the Iron King and do battle with his mechanical army. But will she be able to rescue her sister?
