One an … Continue reading Entropic State Report 12th August 2022

The Winds of Gath – an Old Pier Bookshop Special

Entropic State Report 30th June 2022
We've returned from a wonderful sojourn to one of our Zen places... Morecambe. Morecambe has that perfect blend of urban decay, old Victorian seaside glamour and a perfect bay. Not to mention great boozers, cake and The Old Pier Bookshop. As usual we picked up far too many books, not only from The Old Pier … Continue reading Entropic State Report 30th June 2022
The Mad God’s Amulet – Book One

As always, digressions await the unwary traveller as well as ostentatious … Continue reading The Mad God’s Amulet – Book One
