Cover Reveal! RESET - coming soon :)



Publishing later this month...


💥 ✴  R E S E T  ✴ 💥


The final part of the SFV-1 trilogy




Book #1  I N F E C T E D



Book #2  D A R K N E S S



R E S E T  - the blurb 

‘If one person goes out there and gets bitten, the whole place could collapse within hours.’

Danger, deception and devastating decisions set the stage in this final part of the SFV-1 trilogy.

The virus rages on, though Norah and her friends are behind safe walls at last.  Within The Moors community there is peace to be found, but how long can this happy state of affairs continue?

In a secret bunker in Surrey, the Reset consortium is fast-tracking the plan to reclaim the country, with Julian Sweet a key player.  In the North, Flint and his Berserkers are determined to stay independent of any restrictive new laws for as long as possible.

‘It's a luxurious prison that we walked into of our own accord.  Everything you could possibly need within walking distance.  All you need if you're a robot, anyway.’

Coming soon - Book #1 of my new series #CoverReveal #TuesdayBookBlog


Good morning, and here is an update!

Plan is to publish Infected on June 25th, and Book #2, Darkness on the same day or very shortly afterwards.

Infected will be just 99p or equivalent, permanently, whereas Darkness will be the same price for the first week, after which it will be on sale for my usual price of £1.99.   



~ The Blurb ~

'Every time someone gets bitten, that's one more of them and one less of us.'

 SFV-1: a virulent virus that sends its hosts into a state of extreme rage and ravenous hunger.  When it attacks the UK, 127 people are infected within the first hour.

 London wife and mother Cat is taking part in TV reality show Year Out, on a remote Scottish island.   Her world turns dark when the TV crew fail to arrive for the monthly health check—her one lifeline to her family is now broken. 

 Completely absorbed in the commission of a lifetime, artist Norah ignores what is taking place outside the safety of her studio, until the virus reaches her hometown and a shocking event jolts her back into reality.

 Lion, a stressed out marketing consultant, is enjoying a month away from his hectic online life in northern Cumbria when he encounters a worrying sight in a nearby village.  Is it some kind of zombie?  It can't be, can it?


The books are shorter than my usual novels; my other publications are all around 90-105k words, but Infected is 53K and Darkness around 62k.  Book #3, Reset, is my current work-in-progress, still on the first draft. Though a continuing story, each part depicts distinct phases in the characters' lives, and I will provide a 'story so far' piece in Books #2 and #3, as I always do.

The Visitor is knocking on your door.....

 

New Book Time 😀

~*~


The Visitor is now live!  
Find it on Amazon HERE (universal link).

 


In 2024, a mystery virus ravages the entire world.  'Bat Fever' is highly contagious and a hundred per cent lethal. 

A cottage tucked away in an isolated Norfolk village seems like the ideal place to sit out a catastrophic pandemic, but some residents of Hincham resent the arrival of Jack, Sarah and their friends, while others want to know too much about them.

What the villagers don't know is that beneath Sarah's cottage is a fully-stocked, luxury survival bunker.  A post-apocalyptic 'des res'.   

Hincham isolates itself from the rest of the country, but the deaths continue―and not from the virus.  There's a killer on the loose, but is it a member of the much depleted community, or someone from outside?  As the body count rises, paranoia sets in; friend suspects friend, and everyone suspects the newcomers.

Most terrifying of all is that no one knows who's next on the list...

The Visitor is Terry Tyler's twenty-second Amazon publication, and is set in the same world as her Project Renova series, while being a completely separate, stand-alone novel.

Hope is now live!


Hope

On Amazon HERE



'We haven't elected a Prime Minister, we've elected a lifestyle'.

As the fourth decade of the 21st century looms, new PM Guy Morrissey and his fitness guru wife Mona (hashtag MoMo) are hailed as the motivational couple to get the UK #FitForWork, with Mona promising to 'change the BMI of the nation'.  

Lita Stone is an influential blogger and social media addict, who watches as Guy and Mona's policies become increasingly ruthless.  Unemployment and homelessness are out of control. The solution?  Vast new compounds all over the country, to house those who can no longer afford to keep a roof over their heads.

These are the Hope Villages, financed by US corporation Nutricorp.

Lita and her flatmates feel safe in their cosy cyberspace world; unaware of how swiftly bad luck can snowball, they suspect little of the danger that awaits the unfortunate, behind the carefully constructed mirage of Hope. 


Terry Tyler's nineteenth published book is a psychological drama that weaves through the darker side of online life, as the gap between the haves and the have-nots grows ever wider.  Whether or not it will mirror a dystopian world of the future, we will have to wait and see.

LEGACY is live! #NewRelease #PostApocalyptic


The final book of the Project Renova series, LEGACY, is now live on Amazon!  Enjoy - and big thanks to everyone who has stuck with me for the whole series.  Huge thanks.  Really.  😍


Click HERE for universal link.



Book 1: Tipping Point
Book 2: Lindisfarne
Book 3: UK2
Associated, stand-alone short stories: Patient Zero


'Out of all the death and destruction has come the freedom to be who we really are.' 

A hundred years after the world was devastated by the bat fever virus, the UK is a country of agricultural communities where motherhood is seen as the ideal state for a woman, new beliefs have taken over from old religions, and the city of Blackthorn casts a threatening shadow over the north of England.  Legacy travels back in time to link up with the characters from Tipping Point, Lindisfarne and UK2. 

Seventeen-year-old Bree feels stifled by the restrictions of her village community, but finds a kindred spirit in Silas, a lone traveller searching for his roots.  She, too, is looking for answers: the truth behind the mysterious death, forty years earlier, of her grandmother.

In 2050, Phoenix Northam's one wish is to follow in the footsteps of his father, a great leader respected by all who knew him―or so his mother tells him.

In 2029, on a Danish island, Lottie is homesick for Lindisfarne; two years earlier, Alex Verlander and the kingpins of the Renova group believe they have escaped the second outbreak of bat fever just in time...

Book #4 of the Project Renova series rebuilds a broken country with no central government or law, where life is dangerous and people can simply disappear ... but the post-Fall world is also one of possibility, of freedom and hope for the future.
