Well deserved Dyrk!

Cover to the novel WEST OF APOCALYPSE: the silhouette of a woman with a sword stands on the horizon of a desolate landscape looking out at gas planet, a distant sun, and a crumbling moon.

To check out my book, WEST OF APOCALYPSE is available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook.

Very well deserved Bill! Amazing book!

All true Mark! Thanks for all you do, for all of us! It means more than you may know.

You deserve so many honours for DISCOVERY! And I predict many more to come!

@bjornlarssen.com , BLACK LEOPARD RED WOLF is brilliant, but VERY disturbing.

Thank you so much @vaughnroycroft.bsky.social for the kind words! I feel the same about you! Hoping to read DESTINY'S DOOM sometime in late 2026!

Thank you so much @jannywurts.bsky.social !

YouTube video by The Drowned Kingdom Saga P.L.'s Review of Books 2 & 3/Overview of EMPIRES OF DUST series by Anna Smith Spark

My quick YouTube
review of
EMPIRES OF DUST
by
@annasmithspark.bsky.social !

One of the best grimdark series out there!
While not for the faint of heart, filled with nihilism & depravity, few authors write the compelling allure of the darkness like Smith Spark does.

Can't wait for this!
