A taut sci-fi thriller with a great central conceit, The Memory Shades keeps you guessing right to the very end. Loved it!
Book mail! An ARC of a forthcoming title from @camerontrost.bsky.social ’s @blackbeaconbooks.bsky.social from writer/illustrator Sam Dawson.
The nifty cover art is by the one and only @gregchapman.bsky.social
Just a wonderfully warm and genuine person, and incredibly supportive to other creatives. But don't tell him I said that!! :D
A modern master, adeptly interviewed …

In Saxon Wessex, a hoary old warrior uncovers a threat to the kingdom. Strong characters sit at the heart of this rollicking adventure from @matthewharffy.bsky.social. Rich in atmosphere, beautifully written and packed with intense combat. Great escapist fun in the best axe-wielding tradition.
Absolutely stunned by the HWA announcement that THIS WAY LIES MADNESS has been nominated for a Bram Stoker Award in the Superior Achievement in an Anthology category.
A huge shoutout to our incredible contributors. You’re all stars. Fact.
And to @leemurraywriter.bsky.social You’re awesome!
Thanks so much, Ben!
I’m so proud of being a part of this groundbreaking book alongside co-editor Lee Murray. Our contributors have crafted incredible stories, written with poignancy and nuance.
Out now from Flame Tree Press.
