Steampunk
Steampunk is the twisted offspring of science fiction and postmodernism, a sassy, unpredictable tongue-in-cheek style of which the incomparable Paul Di Filippo is master. The three short novels in The Steampunk Trilogy are all set in a very alternative nineteenth century, and feature a mixture of historical and imaginary figures. In “Victoria,” a young and lissome Queen Victoria disappears from her throne and is replaced by a sexy human/newt clone. The race is on to find the original Victoria and to hide the terrible secret from the nation. In “Hottentots,” Massachusetts is threatened by monsters from the deep; in “Walt and Emily,” Emily Dickinson hooks up with a robust and lusty Walt Whitman, loses her virginity, and travels to a dimension beyond time where she meets the future Allen Ginsberg.
Price : £ 8.99

Stay safe whilst driving and taking phone calls
- If you’re caught using a handheld mobile phone on the road it’s an automatic three penalty points and a £60 fine – or much worse if the case goes to court. Research even shows that using a mobile when driving means you’re four times as likely to crash – but this can all be avoided. This in-car hands-free speakerphone features a unique built-in AMS motion detector, so as soon as you get into the car, the unit switches on and detects your phone – optimising battery life up to an amazing two years between charges (USB cable supplied.) Simply clip this hands-free speakerphone to your car’s sun visor allowing you to make and take calls legally and safely. Ideal for families, as up to 8 phones can be paired with it (and two at once), answering calls is very simple: just press the big green ‘answer call’ button and take your call in crystal clarity with wind noise and echo eliminated. There are even big button volume controls on either side so you can keep your eyes on the road at all times. Making calls is just as simple: simply dial the number on the phone before driving, and the hands-free kit switches on and takes over. It’s the most user-friendly hands-free speakerphone kit we’ve ever seen and will help keep you on the road.
