This is a semi-follow-up to our previous post, of standing up against the ‘woke’ elements that are rotting away society. While the previous post concerned the ostracization and public shaming of two authors for the minor offense of being white guys who looked at b***s, this post is more about th...

Why Do You Need Interesting Characters? This might seem like a no-brainer but trust me, after everything I've been reading lately, people seem to forget at least the main character has to be interesting. And I'm not talking about likable, they can be a one-man horror show but don't make them boring....

A book without a plot is like a body without a spine, a big mess. Lately, I've been encountering more and more books that are ambling long, mostly in the character's head, and have NO direction NO plot, and NO momentum. When I mention this to the author they are quick to say they mean to do that. Wa...

The Crimson Crown, an Aeon of Chaos novella from BJ Swann, is now available as an audiobook read by Elizabeth Bedlam! 👑🩸💀 Inverted Dreams. Excoriated Hearts. Terror and Horror Sublime. The twin princesses Oda and Honey are as different as night and day. Oda is a child of the dark, obsessed with cruelty and death. Honey is as sweet as her name, filled with goodwill and compassion. It is therefore a remarkably revolting twist of fate when the royal astrologer orders Oda to be married to the mild-mannered King Armand, while Honey is betrothed to King Barbus of Gutgirt, the most brutal man in the world, who tears peasants apart with his bare hands and keeps his murdered brides’ bodies on display in his own bloody chamber. As the twins strive to wrest back their lives from the cruel hand of fate, they embark on a journey of self discovery that will twist them in unimaginable ways – and perhaps bare the secrets of their innermost selves. At the center of their struggles, shining balefully over all, is the Crimson Crown of Gutgirt, a relic of terrible mystery and demonic power, whose secrets hold the key to salvation – and everlasting doom. Purchase the audiobook here: https://www.audible.com.au/pd/The-Crimson-Crown-Audiobook/B09W9ZTD62?qid=1648212603&sr=1-1&ref=a_search_c3_lProduct_1_1&pf_rd_p=771c6463-05d7-4981-9b47-920dc34a70f1&pf_rd_r=DZVBFNY4EZZ8M4Z1N1C6 #aeonofchaos #darkhumor #swordandsorcery #author #indieauthor #horrorfantasy #writing #writer #book #publishing #indieauthors #ebook #bjswann #swannbedlam #undergroundfiction #GoodReads #BooksofInstagram #horrorfiction #darkfantasy #indiepublishing #fantasyfiction #weirdfiction #fiction #indiepub #audiobook
Video trailer for the first Aeon of Chaos novel, ZHUULTON OF ZHUUL AND THE FEAST OF THE CENTIPEDE Available here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09QHPZB7J
B.J. Swann's first Aeon of Chaos novel - ZHUULTON OF ZHUUL AND THE FEAST OF THE CENTIPEDE - is now available in eBook AND paperback! (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09QHPZB7J) Zhuulton of Zhuul has been given a quest. Unfortunately for her, it looks more like a creative suicide plan than a realistic goal. Before three days are up, she must travel to the heart of an inhospitable empire, infiltrate an impregnable palace, slaughter fifteen kings as they sit down to lunch, and defeat the great demon centipede before he ascends to the fourth dimension. If she doesn’t, her best friend in the whole world will be eaten alive - with a side of mustard. Luckily Zhuulton has the help of four shape-shifting demons, each with their own special power. One of them can sing. One of them can eat. One of them can smash things. And the fourth is filled with the dread essence of death itself. Join Zhuulton and her magnificent companions for a madcap adventure crammed with sex, violence, and outright strangeness. Enter the Aeon of Chaos, where fantasy, horror, and humour collide! ‘Gruesome, anarchic, and absurd. Like Monty Python and the Holy Grail meets Kentaro Miura’s Berserk.’ - Elizabeth Bedlam #darkfantasy #darkfantasyfiction #darkfantasynovel #darkfantasyseries #darkhumor #horrorfantasy #weirdfiction #fantasyfiction #fantasynovel #fantasyseries #aeonofchaos #bjswann #swordandsorcery #fairytale #darkfairytale #swannbedlam #blackhumor #darkhumour #blackhumour #demons #zhuultonofzhuul #humorousfiction #fantasyhumor #fantasyhumour #adventurestory #highmagic #transgressivefiction #weirdfictionbooks #genrefiction #genrebending
Our Lady of the Scythe: Demon Academy by BJ Swann. Available on Amazon and other fine book sellers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08R39DHKJ "Hogwarts and Camp Halfblood, move the HELL over; there's a new boarding school in town and it is not for the kiddies!" - Christine Morgan, Splatterpunk Award-winning author of Lakehouse Infernal Eighteen-year-old Raza has a problem. Every time she tries to get busy with a boy, she turns into a monster and tears him apart. Why? Because her father is the Big Horned Bastard, demon supreme. To unlock the mysteries of her birth right - and hopefully get some sex education - she's sent to Our Lady of the Scythe, a boarding school for demon-spawn where detention is a realm of flesh-eating monsters and the delinquents get their kicks out of mass murder. Will she even survive the first semester? And what happens when she and her new friends stumble on a vile angelic plot that threatens the survival of all demonkind? Raza will have to embrace her inner demon fast, or kiss her butt goodbye. #bjswann #demons
