Their enemy, the terrifying Reaper and his vicious companion Wayward are still trying to stop them, and continue to create mischief for everyone concerned. All their magical guides from the first two journeys are needed to help July and Michael win through to a glorious finale.

Tom and his sister Leah, plague orphans, are taken-in by the kindly apothecary in Whitby, on the Yorkshire Coast. Tom learns the trade and they grow well-to-do.
Ship's surgeon Ashley is betrothed to Leah, and his best friend Lynton from his student days proposes to his sister Constance.
And one day, collecting herbs, Tom loses his heart to a tragic beauty in the eerie fishing town of “Steeas” (Staithes).
Three Loves... but will they ever wed...?
At Cape Trafalgar, Nelson is about to give decisive battle. But unbeknown to Constance, Lynton faces a darker fate than a hero's death at sea...
And what is haunting Sarah, the woman loved by Tom? She warns him not to linger there. They can be... unfriendly... in Steeas...

Seasons o'Steeas, by Mike Silkstone, received its official launch on Saturday, 16 October, 2010 at The Art Cafe, 42a Flowergate, Whitby.
See the official press release [PDF 143KB].

It is the dawn of the 20th century. A tiny storm-swept fishing village on the tip of the North Yorkshire coast has just been discovered by a group of artists, soon to become famous as the Staithes Group. They are readily accepted as part of the community and Evelyn Dacre, a young local woman, often sits for them. Seasons o'Steeas chronicles three generations of Evelyn’s seafaring family in this isolated inbred community, cursed by tragedy at sea and little room for love on land. Where daily life is steeped in folklore and superstition, touched by the macabre. Where your funeral’s the highlight of your life, and your parents force you to marry your cousin “to keep t’brass in t’family”.

Obituary:
Eugene McDonnell (1925-2010), author of At Play With J, died peacefully at his home in Palo Alto, CA, in the evening of 17 August 2010, surrounded by his family and friends.
In the words of his friend and colleague, Larry Breed: "Gene was a family man, utterly decent, generous, kindhearted; also erudite and witty. His contributions to APL were graceful as well as useful."
For a limited period Undead Tree Publications is forgoing all profits on the sale of At Play With J so that everybody who knew Gene, or knew of him, can have a copy at cost-price as a memorial to this admirable man.
