Ten Poets Series out now! Be haunted, challenged, intrigued and seduced!

Sidekick Books is proud to present the Ten Poets Series!

These four cross-genre books send poets cantering into unknown terrain: erotica, folklore and urban legends, murder mysteries and even kaiju monster movies!

Titles include:

Cover to 'Ten Poets Defend Their Cities from Giant, Strange Beasts'. Etching of man holding up an arm as a mythical monster approaches.

In which our fearless poets battle monsters in many forms, from raging waters to gentrification to music icons gone very bad indeed. Grab whatever weapon you have to hand and join their party for the showdown.

Cover to 'Ten Poets Tell You Their Favourite Ghost Story'. Etching of crowd surprised by a spectre.

In which our poets dance from classic fable to urban legend, taking in a little techno-horror along the way. Eerie tales are made all the more uncanny by poetic cadence, urging you on, down that path, nudging you further through that cursed book, tempting you to repeat that name once more in the mirror…

In which our poets, fond of patterns, games and intrigue, and drawn to mysteries, open the case files within and witness bodies in the forest, brutalised landscapes and nuns covering up more than usual. Less Randall & Hopkirk, more Rimbaud & Hopkins, if you ask us…

Front cover for Ten Poets Charm the Pants off Ten Historical Figures. A couple dancing in a vintage print.

In which our bards become time-travelling Nell Gwynnes, seeking and seducing historical crushes. Will they meet with ecstasy or agony? Slip inside to find out.
