New Dark Fantasy – The Contract

And… drum roll… (Not the Christmas Carol!): New Dark Fantasy – The Contract has just been published in Dark Horses Magazine. My short story The Contract tells the tale of a creepy cave, a missing holy relic, nefarious priests, and a trio of hired swords. The genre is a mashup of badass antiheroes kicking the crap out of dark fantasy.

Dark Horses is a great magazine with an old-school pulp layout. The ‘Zine is full of wonderful and weird fiction, including my story The Contract. Grab your own Kindle copy for a mere $3.99. If you’re feeling flush, spring for the paperback copy. Without further ado, mash the big button and you will be whisked away to literary land.

The Contract is my second story to be featured in Dark Horses, with a third story on the way. (Ooooo….teaser!) Without a doubt, Dark Horses is carrying on the tradition of weird and wonderfully offbeat fiction in the style of the old pulps. Intrigued? You should be!
