Good review for Nick Pope
25 Jun 2014
Nick Pope’s fascinating UFO investigation Encounter in Rendlesham Forest, recently published by Thistle, has had a great review from the San Francisco Book Review.

Author Nick Pope had full cooperation from two of the main eye-witnesses and also gathered a lot of previously unseen material through the Freedom of Information Act. This is a well-researched, well-written, fascinating explication of the events.’

Four new videos from Leslie Kenton
24 Jun 2014
Novelist Leslie Kenton has produced four fascinating new videos to promote the launch of Ludwig - The Beethoven Conspiracy by Thistle Publishing.
“Giddy stuff, well marshalled with a kind of ingenuous passion for ultimates and the welfare of the planet.” OBSERVER
Ludwig is a very clever thriller about unseen puppet masters and secret societies not unlike Umberto Eco’s Foucault’s Pendulum though without all the prosaic mumbo jumbo.” YOU MAGAZINE
“An intriguing tale of the occult; a modern day CIA agent turned journalist confronts the forces of evil unleashed by 18th century secret societies and embodied in the music of Beethoven. Ludwig is a musically well-informed psycho-spiritual odyssey which combines the world of science fiction with Iris Murdoch in one of her wilder modes. Happy reading!” CLASSICAL MUSIC

Great in terms of scope – it’s an official language in seventy-nine countries and territories. And great in terms of, well, greatness – it’s just one fantastic mishmash of borrowings, inventions, corruptions, misinterpretations, misspellings, alterations, words you’ll never need, and words you never even knew you’ll never need…
