The Scrotum Toad Kindle Edition

3.9 out of 5 stars 22 ratings

Tangle is a tree-hugger who is often mistaken for a glamorous witch. She is proud of her organic smallholding in the heart of Africa.
When threatened by a bullying and corrupt businessman who starts trashing the environment and the local people, who can she turn to?
Surely not that foul-mouthed Aussie TV presenter, nor those famous and fabulously wealthy international holidaymakers, who suddenly invade her precious patch. And how could an international food-eating competition, sponsored by the USA’s tin-eared goodwill ambassador, solve her problems?
Surrounded by xenophobic bickering, Tangle struggles to assert her authority, aided by some unlikely admirers.
The Scrotum Toad is an outrageous comic novel which will have the easily offended spluttering over their lattes. Nationalities, cultures and occupations are satirised shamelessly.
You have been warned.

The Corncrake, a historical novel set in 1909-10 and 1914-15, (Winner of a Chill with a Book Premier Award).

Try the Leopard’s Mouth, a romantic thriller with a firm historical base (Winner of a Highly Recommended Award by The Historical Fiction Company).

Cooee Baby, a psychological novel with elements of a thriller (Finalist, Literary Global Book Awards 2024, B.R.A.G. Medallion Honoree, Literary Titan Gold Book Award, Book Nerdection Excellent Read Award).

Honey Down the Lane, a thriller about a woman battling corruption.

All five novels are available in paperback and Kindle from Amazon.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious and naughty!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 21, 2022
    I giggled my way through this book but also really enjoyed the undertone of conviction which was an insight to the writers thoughts and beliefs. A sort of hippy/ecological comune brought face to face with biased narrow-minded offensive folk but winning everyone over for a grand finale hug. I am lucky enough to have a 'Tangle' as a best friend - the always hippy who cannot be offended and takes everyone at their best always. Such a variety of characters where everyone makes you laugh and/or gasp in shock at the same time Lovely book! Not sure what I can say about The Toad....

    4.0 out of 5 stars Bold, satirical and funny
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 11, 2024
    A kaleidoscopic story featuring light touch satire, an outrageous turn of events and a highly entertaining set of characters, ranging from corrupt politicians, to earnest conservationists, to Hollywood moguls. A relaxed read, but with frequent insight into how things work - or maybe don't work. It's also very funny.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Serious subjects written with humour, one of those books you can't put down
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 23, 2022
    A serious subject written in a fun way. Loved all the characters in the book, the discriptions of each of them made them seem like they were characters the author might have met they were so well described. And weren't they all full of character. Seemed like every emotion was being played with as the story unfolded. And so eloquently written. I love a book that makes me reach for the dictionary from time to time. And that toad, oh my! Lets hope he writes more books.
