Avventura Press established itself as an independent
imprint in 1996. The start of an adventure, as the title translates, the
picture of Louis Vanvitelli's 18th-century Caserta aqueduct seemed an
appropriate kind of image for it - like water, literature flows and requires
a beautiful conduit to bring it to people from distant sources. Begun by
Jack Dale, he published three of his books in a period of six years. His aim
was to provide an outlet for stories that for various and different reasons
would not be catered for by the major publishing houses. Although Jack
continued writing, the financial constraints of independent publishing made
it difficult to make his novels available to the public, hence nothing went
to press for a few years. Thanks to the possibilities for eBook
publications, five novels,
The
Test Entire ,
Round and Round the Fire,
Eternal Riders of the Night,
A Sense of Existence, and the latest one,
A Pair Of Shadows, are available for the Kindle. For further information about these
and other books please click the 'Jack Dale's Books' link.
