This time, let’s have a look at a selection of standalone historical sagas by the fabulous Tania Crosse and there’s more – Joffe Books are delighted to have signed two more books, so watch this space. This series, by RONA Romantic Saga of the Year 2020 Tania Crosse is also doing well in the audio world, which is great to see.
Performed by popular narrator Emma Powell, the audiobooks, published by British-based audiobook pioneers W.F. Howes, includes three titles from Tania’s phenomenal Devon series.
Two of the three sagas to be adapted are The Ambulance Girl* and The Wheelwright Girl*, published earlier this year by Joffe Books. The third, The Gunpowder Girl*, is set to hit Kindle screens and post boxes 16 September 2020, along with The Quarry Girl* and The Railway Girl*.
These novels are not only page turn-able treats, but are packed with impeccable historical detail, and enough emotion and passion to keep you on the edge of your seats.
The Ambulance Girl is available now on Amazon.
The Wheelwright Girl is available now on Amazon.
* These novels were originally titled, in order: Teardrops in the Moon, Wheels of Grace, Cherryrbook Rose/Bouquet of Thorns, A Dream Rides By and The Wrong Side of Happiness
And now to an everlasting firm favourite, Helen Forrester:
And there is fabulous news for Helen’s fans, ( several of whom are on Frost Magazine’s book review team),
Roll of drums… Let’s hear it for Helen Forrester, for despite having published a revised edition of LIVERPOOL DAISY in March 2020, the eBook is STILL ranking 158 on the Amazon charts and is a clear favourite among our readers.

So, how do you see Joffe Books in 2021, Jasper?
I asked the team at Joffe Books to weigh in on the question of what publishing 2021 will look like, as together we are much smarter. The consensus is that 2021 will be about solidifying three major changes that took seed during the pandemic. Conscious actions taken in 2020 will begin to translate into real, measurable progress for the industry and spearhead further campaigns and initiatives to create greater diversity than ever. There will be a paradigm shift in work-life balance (for good or bad), thanks to home working. We’ll see huge, simultaneous growth of digital publishing (being super-convenient and accessible, especially during quarantine) and local bookshops (meeting the desire for real-world community).
Across our sector, I’d like to see books by authors from a broader range of backgrounds. In our case, we hope to see results. We’ve shown everyone can work remotely but we miss the doughnut parties to celebrate our successes. The convenience of digital and its global growth will continue to mean agile indy publishers will be building readership. Our own sales are up 25% this year. But I think (I hope) from Easter on, there will be a return to the office and the high street.
Next time we’ll hear more about books, books and more books as well as from another member of this hard working enthusiastic team.
