As promised, the concluding part of the 18,000 word AUTUMN story – THE HUMAN CONDITION – is now available to read at www.lastoftheliving.net. I hope you enjoy it. Things have been a little busy here this week so I haven’t been able to post much, but bear with me. There’s plenty of good stuff coming [...]
As promised, THE GARDEN SHED – a new 8,000 word AUTUMN story – is now available to read over at www.lastoftheliving.net. An Englishman’s home is his castle… Lester Prescott thrives on order and uniformity. His home is pristine and perfect and is situated in a relatively well-to-do residential area. He is well respected socially and [...]
As I was working on the final edits for the US edition of AUTUMN: AFTERMATH recently, it occurred to me that it’s an incredible ten years in November since the free download of AUTUMN was released. It’s also a year since the book’s first ‘official’ release. The success of the series has been really humbling, [...]
I always get nervous as the release of a new book approaches, but the anxiety levels are climbing higher than usual with AUTUMN: DISINTEGRATION. I think it’s because some of you have been waiting so long to read this one. It was a massive relief, therefore, to receive these positive words from Library Journal… “In [...]
As promised, a new short story – UNDERGROUND – is now available to read over at www.lastoftheliving.net. A word of warning though… don’t read it unless you’ve read AUTUMN: PURIFICATION first, because the story takes place in the aftermath of PURIFICATION’s opening scenes. I wouldn’t want to spoil anything for you!
There’s just one day to go before AUTUMN: PURIFICATION is released in the US (it’s already available in the UK and Germany). The third AUTUMN book was always a special one for me. First released in September 2004, it concludes the original trilogy. It’s also particularly exciting, because this book wraps up the re-releases. Next [...]
Not long now until AUTUMN: PURIFICATION is out in the US. The book’s released on 16 August and in the run-up to publication I’ll be posting more stories on www.lastoftheliving.net to introduce some of the new characters from the book. I’ve just added two more to the site: Gary ‘Tuggie’ Keele and Jackie Soames. Both of [...]
Remember Jacob Flynn – the bitter, unrepentant bugger doing time for manslaughter? We last saw him trapped on the wrong side of his prison cell bars as the rest of the world dropped dead around him. He’s now been stuck in his cell without food for over two days. That’s bad enough, but now one [...]
If (like me) you’re keen to find a distraction from things happening here in the UK today, you could do far worse than heading over to www.lastoftheliving.net to read DUCK AND COVER, a free 10,000 word AUTUMN novella. I hope you enjoy it. Tell your friends. Before you read the story, please take a few [...]
I’ve added another quick story to www.lastoftheliving.net: an increasingly unpleasant morning in an already unpleasant job suddenly gets much worse for Karen Chase. Yet again, David Naughton-Shires has provided the excellent artwork. That’s all for March, but there’s plenty of free fiction planned for April. More Amy Steadman, an extract or two from AUTUMN: PURIFICATION [...]
