|summary=Love is love; although humans continue to be confused by this sentiment. Gay conversion therapy is ongoing. The UK government ruled out plans to make it a crime and, in the US, nearly 700 000 adults have received it. Although it is both a secular and a religious prejudice, Chuck Tingle, in his new horror, ''Camp Damascus'', peels back the skin of Christian ''pray the gay away'' camps to show the reader the horror lurking within.

Set in the near-distant future, in a world on the verge of climate collapse, Britain is in great peril. The British Isles desperately needs a hero (or several) to save the day and rescue what little remains. What no one expected was that one of the Knights of the Round Table would answer the call.

|summary= ''Love, I'd read, was supposed to be a light and weightless feeling, but I had always longed for gravity''
 
Told from a retrospective view, a young woman unravels the year-long relationship that once defined her. Overlaid with later wisdom, the narrator relives the affair with a man twenty years her senior from its inception – the summer after finishing university – to its sorrowful end the summer after. Set against the backdrop of an isolated Australian coastal town ''Thirst for Salt'' details the 24-year-old narrator's deepening relationship with her older lover, depicting its all-consuming nature, how it changed her perspective on both romantic and familial relationships and how it altered her irrevocably.
