Book Description
A kooky kid is banished to another planet in this hilarious adventure about a futuristic world where different is dangerous, imagination is insanity, and creativity is crazy! Norbert Riddle lives in the United State of Earth, where normal means following the rules, never standing out, and being exactly the same as everyone else, down to the plain gray jumpsuits he wears every day. He's been normal his whole life -- until a moment of temporary hilarity when he does a funny impression of their dictator, Loving Leader . . . and gets caught! Now, Norbert's been arrested and banished to planet Zorquat 3 in the Orion Nebula, where kids who defy the rules roam free in the Astronuts camp. Norbert has been taught his whole life that different is wrong, but everyone at Astronuts is crazy, creative, and insane! Norbert wants nothing more than to go back to earth where things are awful but at least they're familiar. But he soon realizes that being different could be better -- and maybe the crazy farm is exactly where he belongs after all.

Book Description
The Unfamous Life of Normal Norman (Synopsis) - by Erika Strobel Norman Hooper, a hyperbolic teen who gets lost in self-aggrandized hero fantasies, is the only member of his family who isn't famous. When Norman's family embarrasses him at his 13th birthday party by giving him a gag book titled: How to Become Famous, Norman vows to do just that. Surely, once he's famous, he'll no longer be the joke of his family or the dweeb of his middle school and he can finally win the affection of his crush girl, Catalina Chiquita. With the help of his best friend, Edward, (who never goes anywhere without his camcorder) Norman cooks up all kinds of schemes to make social media headlines. He creates his own YouTube dance that nearly lands him in jail. He fakes a mugging that puts him in a dangerous situation with a real criminal. He even plans to make history in a daredevil stunt to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel that ends up getting him banned from a country. Not only do all his plans comically backfire, but they shine the spotlight on others while Norman remains unfamous.Meanwhile, in the midst of his escapades, Norman discovers surprising secrets about each member of his family that exposes their insecurities about fame. With fresh insight into their 'not so perfect' lives, Norman offers solutions to their problems, which strengthens his relationships with them, but also makes him wonder whether fame is everything it's cracked up to be.Just when Norman is ready to give up on his dream, he finds out that Catalina gave him the birthday gag book. If that wasn't enough, he reads a file in his agent's office that reveals the truth behind his failed auditions. Local casting agents think he is so talentless they've nicknamed him Normal Norman. Naturally, he's crushed, but his pity soon turns to rage. With just a few days left of summer vacation, Norman decides to risk everything and be fearless so that he won't have to start eighth grade as a dweeb. He plots his most outrageous 'get famous scheme' yet--to streak at a baseball game. Norman's plan succeeds. He runs naked before thousands of stadium fans. Unfortunately, no one sees him. They're too busy staring at a blimp in the sky advertising sexy underwear. Norman is arrested by a security guard, who not only ruins his last shot at fame but also ruins his friendship with Edward when he confiscates his camcorder.Defeated and friendless, Norman finally gives up on fame and asks his agent to please retrieve Edward's camera. The agent does, but not before he's viewed all the crazy footage and offers Norman his own a reality show: The Unfamous Life of Normal Norman; a show about a kid who is trying to get famous. Norman can't believe his good fortune. He runs to Catalina's house to tell her he'll be a big star, but she isn't impressed. It turns out that Norman misread her intention for giving him the gag book. It wasn't to humiliate him for not being famous. It was to let him know that she thinks he's a one-of-a-kind-guy without being famous. Norman is stunned. He's wasted his whole summer seeking fame for fame's sake when what he really wanted was to be good at something. After some introspection Norman realizes he has a talent for coming up with crazy ideas. He runs home to tell his family that he doesn't want to have his own reality show. He wants to create a series around his famous family to show the world how much hard work it takes to be successful. After the celebration, Catalina drops by to give Norman his first kiss. The next day, when Norman starts eighth grade, he's the same guy he always was... 'unfamous Normal Norman', only now he knows his true talent and self-worth.

Book Description
Cover Flap In the early 1080’s all of the English, including Raynar, are lulled into a false sense of security by the peace and fat times of the anarchy caused by a power vacuum. False because when the Norman duke of southern Italy unexpectedly dies in 1085, warriors return to Normandy and King William uses them to invade England for the second time. The largest army that William has ever raised sweeps across England like the Black Death. Raynar sets out to hunt Norman nobility with a wolfpack of men who have nothing left to loose. King Henry’s invasion of Normandy in 1105 fails because of the treachery of French knights. In 1106 he launches a second invasion, this time using English infantry, including bowmen recruited by Raynar. About the Author Skye Smith is my pen name. My ancestors were miners and shepherds near Castleton in the Peaks District of Derbyshire. I have been told by some readers that this series reminds them of Bernard Cornwell’s historical novels, and have always been delighted by the comparison. This is the twelfth of my Hoodsman series of books, and the last book set in the era of the Conqueror. Please read the first book, “Killing Kings” before you read this book. All of the books contain two timelines linked by characters and places. The “current” story is set in the era of King Henry I in the 1100’s, while the longer “flashback” story is set in the era of King William I after 1066. I have self-published twelve “The Hoodsman” historical-adventure novels and one Companion reference book for the series: # - SubTitle William I Timeline Henry I Timeline 1.
