The Minister of Chance was Dan Freeman's novelisation of his audio series of the same name, edited by James Hornby. It was published by Arcbeatle Press on 30 June 2022.
Publisher's summary
"I know the formula for doors," says the Minister, vanishing through the one he has just created in mid air. Teenage barmaid Kitty isn't the sort to be dismissed easily, though. Armed only with her bad attitude, foul mouth and mysterious strength, she follows him through the glowing doorway, onto the frost bridge between worlds, and into adventure.
