Peter Amsel was born in Toronto and moved to Sudbury as a young child. He began his musical training there and continued his studies at the University of Ottawa, and then in Montreal, at McGill University. While his passion for music has never waned and he continues to compose, Peter has always been drawn to a love for the written word and he has constantly turned to writing, especially when music seemed inadequate for the emotions he was trying to convey.
Peter has been published in two anthologies published by Wiley & Sons: one chapter entitled Treating Creatively: the challenge of treating the creative mind for Learning About Mental Health Practice and Living with the Dragon: The Long Road to Self-Management of Bipolar II for Voices of Experience: Narratives of Mental Health Survivors. Both books were edited by Thurstine Basset and Theo Stickley. He also contributed an article to the peer-reviewed Journal of Applied Arts and Health, volume 1-2, entitled Creativity and Bi-Polar Disorder: Living with Mental Illness. Several of Peter's poems have also been published, along with concert reviews and a guest editorial in the Ottawa Citizen.
Peter has now entered the realm of writing Fiction, exploring the genre of the Novel for the first time. The first and second volumes of the five-volume Felis Alliance Series are now available on both Amazon and Kobo, the first having been released on August 15th, 2016, and will be followed shortly by the third volume (Restoration).
Sun Killers and Time Changers are now available as E-Books, and as a Print On Demand Paperback (from Amazon), and are also available for the Kobo eReader. Subscribe to our newsletter to be notified about the exact release date of the third and fourth volumes, and to receive exclusive sneak previews.
The Felis Alliance Series takes readers on a journey across the universe as the great Alliance struggles for survival against the Ursus Consortium and, at times, against the ingenuity of their own creations and their desire for recognition and freedom. When these artificially created slaves come to the realization that they deserve to have freedom and equality the only thing that can stop them is their will to be recognized as Citizens of the Alliance (Book III & IV). In Book V, Salvation Earth, the future of humanity balances on the cusp in the final volume of the series.

Why no Printed Books or Music?Books and music are extremely important to Bordofsky Productions, but we also cognizant of the fact that technology has changed the way people consume these commodities, and there are environmental concerns to be taken into consideration.
With the introduction of the Amazon Kindle in 2007, and the proliferation of devices making access to digital files so easy these days that someone need not own a dedicated E-Reader to enjoy an E-Book, the decision to publish our books directly to the electronic format was easier. If you want to read an "electronic book" you do not have to own a dedicated E-Reader. If you have any type of device that allows you to download the proprietary application from either Amazon Kindle or KOBO you may purchase an E-Book and enjoy it on all of your electronic devices. There are numerous advantages to this, not the least of which being that with a physical book, if you leave the book at home, you have no book to read while you're on the bus, or waiting at an appointment. With an E-Book, if you have your device with you (something that most people have), you have access to your reading material. If you have it on your tablet you can also have it on your PC and on your phone. With that in mind, you can also have the same E-Book on an E-Reader, making it even easier for you to enjoy the reading experience, wherever you happen to be when you want to read. There is really only one thing that you cannot do with an E-Book that can be done with a "real" book: you can't use it to sop up your coffee when you spill it while you're reading (though it won't do much for your electronic devices ... warranties will vary). Of course, there are other things, but the advantages of the electronic format, including the fact that is is possible to increase the font size for people with vision impairments, making reading more accessible, means that E-Books are far more flexible than their printed cousins. To purchase the Kindle edition, please click here. For Kobo, please click here. Thank you. This is one of the main reasons we decided to publish directly to the electronic format. We love books, but we also believe that if we can get more people reading, that is even more important. If we save money by not having to print our product, we also do not have to worry about shipping, warehousing, and all of the other ancillary costs associated with the print-side of publishing, we can then pass those savings onto you, the reader or performer. Instead of charging upwards of $13.99 (or even more) for a new release, our E-Books will be priced at only $5.99 (PSRP [CDN$]), which represents a considerable saving to you, the reader, over most new publications. For those who are intent on having a paper copy of our books, do not despair! It is possible to purchase (at a greater price, unfortunately) a Print-on-demand paperback through Amazon. Those who purchase the POD copy qualify to purchase the Kindle version at a discounted price. For a preview of the first chapter of Sun Killers, the first book in the Felis Alliance Series, please visit the BOOKS page. A preview of Time Changers can be found through the links to both the Kobo and Amazon. |
