Evil will come and champions will fall, but Britannia shall reign eternal.
Every world has its heroes, and every hero has tales to tell. Britannia, Queen Victoria’s realm, is not the least of these, for its many heroes are varied and inextricably linked. If but one falters, then others might follow.
In a Victorian world off-kilter with our reality, a malevolent entity and an incarnation of past evil seek to overpower Britannia and its weakened queen. The disenchanted Sir Belvedere Magnanimous Wainthrop, the Lion of Britannia, will brave time and space to battle this unholy alliance and return glory to the empire. Others shall follow his lead, and destiny will test every ounce of their courage and resolve.
From a Himalayan Shangri-La to a subterranean London and the corridors of Buckingham Palace itself, this disparate group of individuals will battle the odds and come together to make the ultimate sacrifice. But will it be enough?

As always, a big thank you to editor Manuela Timofte for publishing my latest monthly piece, As I wake. I would encourage anyone reading this to go and have a good look at the works on offer. There is a wonderful selection of poetry and prose for people to read.
It is always a pleasure to contribute to such a fantastic magazine as Gobblers.
Author’s note: Drabbles are a great way to hone your editing skills. Write a very short story and then dissect every word and abbreviation down to the requirement of ‘give or take’ a hundred words. A really straightforward way to become succinct. Give it a go.
A big thank you to editor Manuela Timofte for publishing my latest poem.
This piece was inspired by a chaotic and very tiring recent experience at Heathrow Airport – between you and me, I really hate flying – and the relief at having my headphones on.
Please take a look around this wonderful site at all the fabulous poems and prose on offer.
