Into The Dark

[blows dust off the blog]

Well. Hello. Been a while since I’ve powered this thing up.

A book cover featuring an artists impression of a Black Hole, with the title Into The Dark: Short Stories of Science Fiction and Horror.

I’ve got a new book out.

It’s called Into The Dark and is a collection of science fiction / horror short stories. About 28,000 words of them, all told. Some have been published previously, and some are debuting in this collection.

It’s available for $2.99 if you buy it from the Amazon US store or £2.35 from Amazon UK. If you use a different Amazon store it should be listed on that too in your local currency. Or if you’ve got Kindle Unlimited, it’s absolutely free.

Within these pages you’ll find what happens when…

  • The natural constants of the universe begin to change.
  • It’s too late for a television reporter to realise he’s a part of the story.
  • The surveillance state meets a programmer anxious to impress his girlfriend.
  • One of the crew must perform a spacewalk from a starship travelling at half the speed of light.
  • A scientist discovers a new species of life on Earth hiding in plain sight.
  • The crew of a starship mysteriously vanish in an instant.
  • A hard-boiled detective – who’s also a Tyrannosaur – takes on a missing persons case.

Christmas Pimpage

Stuck for Christmas Presents for your friends and family? Why not give them stuff I’ve written this year?

There’s Cthulhu Lives! from Ghostwoods Books. That there is an Amazon affiliate link which gives me an extra 20p or so at no extra cost to your good self. It’s like ticking the Gift Aid box when you give to charity – except in this case you get an actual book for your cash.

Or an eBook. They do those too.

Ethical objections to Amazon can be dealt with by buying it from another retailer. Ghostwoods has a list.

Or if your pals prefer something a bit more doctorwhoey (which is completely a word and in no way something I’ve made up) then you could try Outside In. It’s on sale in the US at Amazon or from my website in the UK.
