Our books so far ...

By Monty Roodt (SRP co-publisher) — "The Bernie Bernard Bathurst Chronicles"

Retired Rhodes professor, Bernie Bernard likes to hang out at the ‘Pig’ in Bathurst. While there he gets himself embroiled in all manner of local shenanigans, with abalone poachers, revolutionaries and others with murderous intent.

By David Bristow (SRP co-publisher) - "Stories from the Veld"

20 tales taken from the five previous volumes of Stories from the Veld: a genius of the bushveld, a ‘white witch’ recluse artist, the road to hell, rhino poachers and three lads in search of adventure are some of the tales that make up the ‘best of’ compendium. 

By Alan Haller — "The Sopwith Jones Adventures"

Aeronautical engineer Sopwith Jones (named for the famous WW I plane), really only wants to build the first solar powered aircraft, but it leads him down some dark alleys. Five volumes later, the aviator turned PI is still the trail of a host of some of the worst baddies to grace the pages of South African crime fiction.

By Nick Crowley — "Howzit! Howzat!"

Howzit? Long-time radio commentator Nick has compiled a compendium of some the best, the worst, but always the most memorable anecdotes about South Africa’s forays in international cricket over the past 60 years. Howzaaaaat!

For Dream Hotels & Resorts

Dream Diaries & The Adventures of Kamo the Chameleon

A coffee-table book (with more planned) which showcases the pioneering community and environmental work of this visionary hotel and resort group, and the adventures of the Dream Xplorers’ club mascot Kamo and his side-kick Sadie (volumes I – IV). We look forward to more adventures with them.

Coming soon ...

Two exciting books we have in production: Migrations by Jacob Hoddinott, a tumultuous journey through South Africa’s most dramatic events between 1820 and 1845; The Invisible Boy describes Anwar Mc Kay’s journey, variously harrowing, insightful, witty and always delightful, growing up as a complete outsider in a punitive society. Redemption has seldom been this sweet.

 

Out for Christmas 2025. All books can be ordered through your favourite book store or bought online on Takealot.
