I feel like a broken record… “It’s that time again!” … “New Release imminent!” … but it’s true! And a good thing, God damnit! So what’s the news? Book 2 in the Dark Drabbles series by Black Hare Press is the news!
Tomorrow, July 23rd marks the official Release Day of Black Hare Press‘ deliciously dark micro fiction anthology “ANGELS“! This book has already smashed Amazon USA Best Seller status when the paperback went live, and it’s just going from strength to strength. Despite it’s seemingly saccharine, religious title, this offering is anything but!
Check out the full blurb below…
Beatific angels, holy wars, kitty saviours, epic battles between good and evil, devils and demons, fallen angels and many more tantalising tiny tales of blasphemy and piety. What miracles can one hundred debut to bestselling authors do with 100 words? More than three hundred 100-word drabbles from around the world.
I have five dark drabbles featured within, all of which are rooted in authentic Biblical mythology, even drawing inspiration from Talmud. From the Fall of the divinely beautiful Lucifer, to the baby stealing demoness Lilith, my tales are sure to enthrall. Their titles are: “The Fall“, “Out of Eden“, “The Seventh Seal“, “Angel of Death” & “Thief in the Night“.
I’ve personally had a life-long fascination with the centuries old literary creatures that are angels. Being the inherently black soul that I am, my favourite kind of course, are the Fallen. Those who grew prideful and Fell for their beliefs, forsaking the Light of God to forge a path through the Darkness.
If we’re talking about ‘book boyfriends‘, then I’m claiming Lucifer as my own! His alluringly flawed character, his motives, his story and what he becomes… Ugh! Words fall short. He’s just delicious! I hope you enjoy my drabble that features him.
If you’re yet to pick up your own copy, swing by HERE to purchase your choice of format; eBook, Paperback and… Hardcover, today! And if you have the time, feel free to join us over at our virtual Release Event on Facebook!
This anthology is full of talented authors, and it’s one I am proud to be a part of. With any luck, I’m hoping to feature in all 8 (yes, EIGHT, you read that right!) of the Dark Drabbles series by Black Hare Press. I am a short fiction fiend and drabbles are just way too much fun, both to read and write!
Wish us luck! We’re crossing our fingers (and wings!) for a much coveted orange #1 Best Seller tag! And if all this isn’t enough to sate your wickedly insatiable hunger for speculative fiction, feel free to visit my Anthologies page to find out where else you can find my works!
PS: … “Curses & Cauldrons” by Blood Song Books‘ (a short fiction indie press from Australia!) Cover Reveal is happening July 31st! Check out this teaser, and remember you can follow them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!
May you feast upon the flesh of your enemies!
