Troubador Publishing Charlie Green and the Knights of the Round Table
Charlie Green is the epitome of kindness, bold, good-natured and always seeks to find truth and put right wrongs with a cheeky grin. But Charlie is no ordinary boy, he has a secret: a magical plane that can take him anywhere including back in time! In Martyn Blunden’s latest adventure, Charlie must travel back to the sixth century to save Camelot and the Knights of the Round Table from self-destruction. When an old man in a museum reveals some long lost parchments which contain a confession by Merlin, the great wizard and advisor to King Arthur, and a revelation of treachery within Camelot, Charlie knows that history will have to be rewritten. He must travel back in time to warn King Arthur and to stop the millennia old lies that Sir Lancelot betrayed his beloved king. Charlie knows little about the century he is visiting and upon arrival finds great difficulty in persuading its inhabitants to listen to him. The answer to his problems is locked away on the magical island of Avalon and is guarded by many, entrusted with total protection of its secrets. Let the adventure begin!

Troubador Publishing Charlie Green and the Gods of Pompeii
Nobody could be kinder than time travelling adventurer Charlie Green, and it’s both a strength and weakness as he discovers in his latest adventure! After holidaying nearby to the ruins of Pompeii, Charlie learns that the volcanic eruption in 79AD buried the city of Pompeii, and many of its residents perished as a result under metres of ash and pumice. Struck by this, Charlie resolves to save a group of school children from a grisly death. Charlie decides to hatch a plan to use his magic aeroplane to return him to ancient Pompeii just before the eruption to lead the children to safety. However, what Charlie doesn’t know is that the eruption, and subsequent devastation, was created by the all-powerful Greek God Zeus. Very unhappy with the population of Pompeii changing their Godly allegiances to Roman Gods, he chose to make them pay the ultimate price. And anyone crossing paths with the ill-tempered God of Gods normally ends up on the sharp end of a lightning bolt… as Charlie soon find out when he arrives in ancient Pompeii and lands himself in more trouble than he could have imagined! With unseen adversaries appearing from both heaven and earth, and trouble brewing back in the modern-day Green household, Charlie will need all his irrepressible charm, innocent guile and courage to be successful this time.
