 Dark Futures: SF meets Horror Alien? Predator? Who can deny it … science fiction and horror can go together like a hand inside a glove. And they do in this collection of stories by one of Britain’s most highly-praised practitioners of imaginative fiction. An Earthman tries to learn a deadly alien martial art, and finds the terrifying truth behind it. A blind boy senses that our planet is being invaded, but in a wholly unexpected way. A vacationer meets with otherworldly peril on a deserted Jamaican shore. And there’s more. It’s time to have your close encounter … of the fear kind. “Richards is a master” - RT Book Reviews. “A terrific author. A unique and eloquent voice” - John Pelan. “Man, this guy can write. He has the power to introduce you all over again to the pleasures of reading good prose” - Ed Gorman. “A master of the art” - Black Static magazine. “An amazing voice” - James A. Moore. “Always first-class” - Ronald Chetwynd-Hayes. I have 2 novels from HarperCollins on Kindle and 2 collections from Dark Regions Press. I also have more than a dozen self-published ebooks -- fantasy, SF, vampires, mystery, supernatural, horror, a serial killer thriller set in Arizona, and even Sherlock Holmes tales -- which are almost all at the sample price of 99c: http://amzn.to/m4ihmeABOUT THE AUTHOR: Tony Richards is the author of 7 novels from Harpercollins, Tor, Headline and Pan Macmillan and has seen more than one hundred short stories in print, most of them in magazines like Isaac Asimov's SF, Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery, F&SF, Weird Tales and Cemetery Dance. He has been nominated for both the HWA Bram Stoker Award and the British Fantasy Award. He now has 17 self-published titles on Amazon Kindle. |

Welcome to KindleBoards, Tony, and congratulations on your book!  Please note that KindleBoards is a Readers and Kindle Fan forum. Authors are always welcome to post anywhere but, as you browse the 'boards, please keep in mind that self-promotion, of any sort, is ONLY allowed here in the Book Bazaar. A brief recap of our rules follows: (Note that this doesn't mean you've done anything wrong; we just want you to have a ready reference. ) -- Please bookmark this thread (using your browser's bookmark/favorite function) so you can update it as we ask that authors have only one thread per book and add to it when there is more information. You may start a separate thread for each book (or you may have one thread per series of books, or one thread for all of your books, it's your choice). --We invite you to use your book cover as your avatar and have links to your book and website in your signature. Instructions are posted here--While you may respond to member posts to your thread at any time, you may only bump your thread (back-to-back posts by you) once every seven days. Once you've responded to a member, that resets the clock to zero and you must wait seven days to post, unless another member posts before then. --We ask that Amazon reviews not be repeated here as they are easy to find at your book link. Also, full reviews from other sites should not be posted here, but you may post a short blurb and a link to the full review instead. --Although self-promotion is limited to the Book Bazaar, our most successful authors have found the best way to promote their books is to be as active throughout KindleBoards as time allows. This is your target audience--book lovers with Kindles! Please note that putting link information in the body of your posts constitutes self promotion; please leave your links for your profile signature that will automatically appear on each post. For information on more ways to promote here on KindleBoards, be sure to check out this thread: Authors: KindleBoards Tips & FAQ. All this, and more, is included in our Forum Decorum. Be sure to check it from time to time for the current guidelines and rules. Oh, and one more thing: be sure to check out the index threads at the top of the Book Bazaar. . . follow the directions there to be listed. Thanks for being part of KindleBoards! Feel free to send us a PM if you have any questions. Betsy & Ann Book Bazaar Moderators |

This is still selling well. Who says that readers only like to stick to just one genre?

Two more of my Dark Regions books will be out on Kindle before too long:
My latest collection of short fiction, Our Lady of the Shadows.
And Midnight’s Angels, the third in my series of supernatural thrillers set in the strange town of Raine’s Landing, Massachusetts, where the real witches of Salem fled.
