Dark Knowledge was first published as an e-book three years ago by a small press. A year later, the press...

Ray Bradbury is gone. Wow, it's hard to conceive of the world without him.

Sherron has created a gorgeous poster, incorporating the cover art for Of the Night, for the official book launch, which we'll be having at our local library. I read somewhere that authors should work harder at promoting their work locally, building up a buzz which (in theory) should spread...

It's a short novel; fast, brutal...a thriller in every sense of the word. If you pop over to my blog, check out the Home Page, you can read the birth annoucement......

How would you like an advance look at the cover art of my next novel, Of the Night?
Australian artist Adrian Donoghue came up with the original image and our designer, Chris Kent, adapted it and created a "look" that I absolutely love.
Of the Night is part of a cycle of tales and novels...
