This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short memoir of a huge hoax. The true story of a student who, to publicise Plymouth Charities Week, created the Free Cornish Army and convinced the UK media that Cornwall had risen up and declared independence. As he told police at the time, "It was only a small country, and I did give it back." But how do you follow a hoax that pushed the 1974 general election result off the front page? Well... This 36-page memoir contains five hilarious stories from Chris's early life - from the Free Cornish Army and other outrageous Rag Week stunts, to the day he created the most aggressive chess program the world has ever seen. Chris Dolley's first memoir - French Fried: One Man's Move to France With Too Many Animals and an Identity Thief - was a New York Times bestseller. "A splendid hoax," - Punch

Download or read book Resonance written by Chris Dolley and published by Book View Cafe. This book was released on 2005-11-05 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I have read a lot of science fiction and have gone through tons of plots, so when I find one that is unique I certainly take notice. Resonance is one of those books that has it all. Interesting plot with plenty of mysteries and twists, characters you care about, and solid writing that strings it all together." -- Jeffrey Miller Graham Smith is a 33 year old office messenger. To the outside world he's an obsessive compulsive mute - weird but harmless. But to Graham Smith, it's the world that's weird. And far from harmless. He sees things other can't...or won't. He knows that roads can change course, people disappear, office blocks migrate across town - all at night when no one's looking. Only by following a rigid routine can he lessen these effects. If he walks the same route to work every morning and catches the same train, and keeps himself to himself, then there's a good chance his house will still be where he left it when he returns home in the evening. Then he meets Annalise Mercado. Annalise Mercado hears voices. Sometimes she thinks they're spirit guides, sometimes she thinks she's crazy. But then they start telling her about Graham Smith, the danger he's in, and how only she can save him. So begins the story of two people whose lives appear fragmented across alternate realities. And how, together, they hold the key to the future of a billion planets... REVIEWS: "Resonance is a tremendously accomplished book ... and immediately raises Dolley into the ranks of writers to watch. It's a head-over-heels romp through ever-changing realities, crammed with great set-pieces, excellent hooks and some nice one-liners." -- Keith Brooke, Infinity Plus "This is one of the most original new science fiction books I have ever read. In fact, as an inspired new take on a familiar SF idea it's original enough to stand comparison with "The Time Traveler's Wife" or "Memoirs of an Invisible Man. If it is as big a hit as it deserves, it may well be this book which becomes the standard by which SF stories about ... are judged." -- Marshall Lord "...you get carried along thinking the story is going one way and off it veers in another direction. I don't know about you but I like being surprised by a story. I enjoy having an author keep me interested in the story and caring about the characters. Dolley does a great job of pulling all the elements together to keep you reading. Highly recommended." -- Gayle Surrette, SFRevu "An exceptional first novel." -- Robert M. Tilendis, Rambles "RESONANCE is outstanding, creating unique, believable protagonists and compelling readers to follow along in an outstanding adventure."-- Midwest Book Review "I loved Resonance ... the writing is clever, the concepts are ingenious, and the characterizations are first class. Both Graham Smith and Annalise Mercado stick with you as people long after the book is finished. And with all the stories I read, that is amazing." -- Jerry Wright, Bewildering Stories

Download or read book Deja Vu Halloo written by Chris Dolley and published by Book View Cafe. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s Groundhog Day, 1906. February 2nd is stuck on repeat, and only our intrepid trio appear to have noticed. Emmeline senses the meddling of a higher power - possibly her aunt. Reggie’s sure it’ll be the handiwork of the subterranean horror one least suspects. And Reeves considers it all “most disturbing.” Can our heroes save the world from perpetual winter? And could ending the time loop be just the start of an even thornier problem? This short novel is the sixth Reeves & Worcester Steampunk mystery and is set a few months after The Unpleasantness at Baskerville Hall. “A fun blend of P.G. Wodehouse, steampunk and a touch of Sherlock Holmes. Dolley is a master at capturing and blending all these elements.” --SF Revu “Another terrific addition to this hilarious series about Reggie and the indefatigable Reeves plus the delightful Emmie, who is as zany as Reggie, facing down a time loop, a squadron of aunts, and don't forget The Mustache.”--Sherwood Smith, author of CROWN DUEL “Chris Dolley's steampunk Reeves and Worcester mystery series is always a delight, but Deja Vu Halloo sets new heights of insane brilliance. Give yourself time to savor the delightful absurdity!”--Patricia Rice, author of the School of Magic series “I love this! It's great fun”-- Jennifer Stevenson, author of Trash, Sex, Magic
