Bankside Publishing is an offshoot of the successful Regentlane Publishing Group of Cumbria which for years produced, among other things, the Towns and Villages of Britain series of guidebooks as well as the later Travelers Guides. In addition, dozens of other authors saw their work published and distributed throughout the UK including The Cruise which accompanied the popular BBC1 television programmes.

After Regentlane Ltd was forced to cease trading due to serious sickness, rights to publish the books was acquired by two of the authors, Alan Bryant who was the author of the Towns and Villages guidebooks and Leon Edgar, author of spy thrillers and sci-fi novels.

Having the foresight to see the potential of the Internet, Leon decided that the future lay in E-publishing and began the lengthy task of converting the existing guides into web pages to be accessed by the public as

Bankside Publishing is non profit-making and seeks to assist new authors to get their work published, providing editorial assistance and backup as well as support on the Internet through a sister company. In 2000, Leon teamed up with model Luna Lane with a view to also promoting new models on the Internet. After retiring, Luna went back to the profession she had trained for in university and began the Eurospace pages while continuing her studies and working as student-teacher for CNES in Toulouse.

Here, on Ning, there are networks for her old friends in glamour modeling (but no nude or porn content), and for the latest in aerospace activities. All material relating to her previous career is on her main website or her blog network.

The Books of Leon Edgar

In the far reaches of the Persian Empire, a young girl leads a normal life. But when she is aged 13, she is taken from her family to Shushan, the Persian capital. From humble beginnings, Esther rises to be chosen as Queen to King Xerxes the Great. One of the most powerful women in the world, her position seems assured. Yet Xerxes is brutally assassinated and Esther finds herself on the run in the mountains and deserts. This fictionalised account of Esther, Queen of the Persians, draws on the known facts about Esther's life in the Persian Empire during the 5th century BC. On his death bed, King Arthur fathers twins who find they have amazing powers when together. Persecuted by the Britons, they flee north to find their relatives, pronouncing a terrible curse upon Camelot. Due to the use of their power, they defeat the invading Picts and are proclaimed heroes. Ædred becomes King at York while his sister, Ædra, works as a missionary, healing the sick and feeding the needy. In time, the Church launches attacks against her because she refuses to absorb its twisted dogmas. But a great evil ravages Britain and she is forced to return from the grave, with all the dangers this presents. It is November 1605, a day still celebrated in the British Isles as the anniversary of the day that Guy Fawkes tried to blow up King and Parliament in London. Jack Bosvile, the youngest member of the gang, escapes by the skin of his teeth and is pursued by both the King's Militia and the backers of the Plot, who believe him to be the traitor who gave them away. He flees to Essex and then to the South of France to find peace. Accompanied by the beautiful Sarah, he tries to escape capture but is eventually caught. This is the first of the PLOT saga and covers the period 1605 to 1615. The Cold War is over, or so we thought. But are the Russians really our allies now? Or is there something evil bubbling just under the surface? Something is not right - Michael Blackman knows that instinctively. He has been trained as a British government assassin, now retired. Brought back to do "one more job", everyone thinks it will be easy in view of his past sucesses. But this time, it's different. It's wrong, the pieces don't fit. And time is running out. He must take action, whatever the consequesnces - and he must do it NOW!
