Ordering for Australian Customers!

As many people know, ordering books through Amazon AU can be very expensive, so thanks to some hard work by Louise Zedda-Sampson, we are now offering a direct ordering service for some of our recent books. This only applies to folks in Australia (only Australia, sorry, not New Zealand at this point), as prices elsewhere seem reasonable on Amazon, especially if you can get free shipping. If you are in New Zealand, please contact us for a quote with your address and which books you’d like, thanks!

Please note: Stocks of some titles are limited so it may be a while till we can have these printed and shipped locally. If you’re in a hurry, please do check with Louise or Steve!

Any one of the above books is $25 AUD including shipping!
Additional books are an extra $15 including shipping!
Don’t forget to let us know which book(s) you’d like when you order!

As these are charity books, we will still be able to raise funds for the various charities, so your money is being well spent and you’re getting some great value books for less than you can on amazon – if you do see these cheaper anywhere else, please let Steve or Louise know!

Filled with thirty-two dark and quirky stories and poems about buried things, and edited by Louise Zedda-Sampson and Geneve Flynn, it comprises an international line up of authors, including many award-winning and award-nominated. Trickster’s Treats 4: Coming, Buried or Not! is an unearthed delight raising funds to support literacy in Australian Indigenous communities.

“A delicious bag of Halloween candy overflowing with all the good stuff!
The binge read of the season!” — John Palisano, President of the Horror Writers Association & Bram Stoker Award-Winning author of Ghost Heart

Horror can come in various guises, including an innocent-looking child on Hallowe’en night. This collection of tales and poems constitutes a load of mind-twisting events. Recommended, but — WARNING! Do not read these tales all at once — Or else your brain may reel and your heart may quake, and you could end up trapped forever, together with these characters, in worlds of terror! — W Paul Ganley, twice winner of the World Fantasy Award
