Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, get all three Harriet Walsh novels in one volume! All the Harriet Walsh novels are set in the distant future, where the galaxy has been colonised and human-like robots are commonplace. They're good clean fun, written with wry humor. PEACE FORCE Would you work for a deranged robot? Harriet Walsh does! Harriet's weapon won't fire without the right paperwork, the patrol car is driving her up the wall, and her crime-fighting computer doesn't even have solitaire. Welcome to the Peace Force! ALPHA MINOR The Peace Force has a new recruit, and she's driving everyone crazy. From disobeying orders to handling unauthorised cases, nothing is off-limits. Worse, Harriet Walsh is forced to team up with the newbie, because the recruit's shady past has just caught up with her. Meanwhile, a dignitary wants to complain about rogue officers working out of the station. She insists on meeting the station's commanding officer ... and they don't have one. All up, it's another typical day in the Peace Force! SIERRA BRAVO Planet Dismolle is supposed to be a peaceful haven. So what's with all the gunfire? A criminal gang has moved into Chirless, Dismolle's second major city. Elderly residents are fed up with the loud music, noisy cars and late night parties, not to mention hold-ups, muggings and the occasional gunfight. Chirless has no Peace Force, so Harriet Walsh of the Dismolle City branch has to help out. That puts her up against a gang of hardened criminals with only her training pistol and a few old allies to lend a hand. And these allies aren't just old, they're positively ancient!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three full-length novels in one volume! "An insane, inspired blend of high fantasy and low humour" Here's what you get! A Portion of Dragon and Chips A mild-mannered old robot has just been transported to a medieval kingdom, and things are quickly going from bad to worse. A homicidal knight is after his blood... or the robot equivalent. A greedy queen wants to bend him to her will. A conniving Master of Spies is hatching his own devious plan for the mechanical marvel. And worst of all, there's nowhere to get a recharge. A Butt of Heads Remember that mild-mannered robot trapped in a medieval kingdom? He's still there, and he has a load of new problems to deal with. First, he must lead a motley crew of adventurers on a quest to capture a baby dragon... ... and save them from the incensed parent dragons. Next, the City Guard is hunting him down, determined to drag him back to their master, a man desperate to find out what makes the robot tick... even if it means disassembly with a blunt axe. And, to cap it all off, two foreign nations are planning an invasion, five kingdoms are on the brink of war, and gigantic sea serpents, vengeful dragons and a drunken cadre of dwarves are determined to make life difficult for everyone. A Pair of Nuts on the Throne It's crunch time for the medieval kingdom! Our mild-mannered hero, the junky old robot, has a new ally. He's sure they've met before, but he can't quite put his finger on it. Actually, he can't quite put his finger on anything. Heads of state are dropping like flies, thanks to a series of improbable accidents, and war clouds are rolling in. The elves are building siege engines, human kingdoms are raising their armies, and the dwarves are nursing hangovers. Enjoy the laughs, chaos and misadventures in the third and final part of the Dragon and Chips trilogy.

Book excerpt: "I read it at a sitting and couldn't put it down." - Tom Holt Hal Spacejock Omnibus One contains three full-length novels plus a bonus short story. Here's what you get: A Robot Named Clunk (Hal Spacejock Book 1) Clunk, a clapped-out robot, is convinced he's about to be junked. Instead, his penny-pinching boss is sending him off to be refurbished. Being old and wise, Clunk knows there's a catch, but at first it doesn't seem too bad. He just has to help a freelancer pick up some cargo. Unfortunately, Hal Spacejock - the freelancer - is obstinate, over-confident, and woefully under-skilled, and he's never going to let a lowly robot fly his precious ship. Is there any chance this pair of misfits can lift off, collect the cargo and deliver it in one piece? Or will they fly straight into the nearest star, still bickering and fighting over the controls? Second Course (Hal Spacejock Book 2) Hal Spacejock's cargo business is going so well he's considering getting into passengers ... especially the beautiful and mysterious Sonya Polarov. Clunk's certain she's up to something, but as usual Hal won't listen to a word he says ... Meanwhile, Rex Curtis runs the galaxy's biggest freight company, and he's sick of independent pilots stealing his cargo jobs. He's determined to make a statement by destroying the biggest nuisance of them all: Hal Spacejock. Just Desserts (Hal Spacejock Book 3) Hal's new-fangled, bargain-bin stasis generator has just failed, exactly as Clunk predicted, and now their valuable cargo of fresh food is in danger of rotting away. They leave their ship and head off to find replacement parts, which is a real shame, because a secret agent wants Hal's ship for an urgent mission ... with or without his permission. Visit (A Hal Spacejock short story) Hal returns from a shopping trip and finds Clunk in a right old state. Break out the crayons and colouring sheets ... they're booked in for a school visit! About the Hal Spacejock series Set in the distant future, where humanity spans the galaxy and robots are second-class citizens, the Hal Spacejock series will strike a chord with fans of Red Dwarf and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, while forging its own off-beat path through the cosmos.

Hal Spacejock 4: No Free Lunch A cunning rival determined to ruin Hal's business, a Peace Force officer facing a dangerous investigation and a planet with more bugs than a new operating system ... When Hal and Clunk set out to make a fresh start, this wasn't exactly what they had in mind. Now Hal must choose: take on the rival to save his own business, or help the officer with her first - and possibly last - investigation? Whatever he decides, it's No Free Lunch for Hal Spacejock! Hal Spacejock 5: Baker's Dough A broken-down fugitive with nothing to lose, an arms dealer hiding a deadly secret and an elderly robot set to inherit a vast fortune ... it's a typical cargo job for freighter pilot Hal Spacejock and his offsider, Clunk. Baker's Dough features intense rivalry, sublime double-crosses and more greed than a free buffet.

Hal Spacejock: Framed A straightforward cargo delivery takes a left turn when Hal Spacejock gets sidetracked.

Simon Haynes is the author of nine Hal Spacejock novels for teens/adults, three Hal Junior novels for ages 8-12, the Harriet Walsh series for teens/adults, the Robot vs Dragons fantasy trilogy, and over a dozen short stories spanning fantasy, thrillers and hard science fiction. If you're looking for super-heroes with overwhelming powers, this is the wrong author for you, because Simon's work typically features the underdog fighting for survival against powerful opponents. All Simon's novels are self-contained, with a beginning, a middle and a proper ending. They're not sequels, they don't end on a cliffhanger, and you could start or end your journey with any book in the series. (Some events from earlier books are referenced in later ones, so it makes sense to read them in order, but it's not essential.)
