Synopsis
Legends and old wives tales hold a truth–but we've forgotten the chaos that lies behind them.
Strange worlds and creatures lie all around us. Humanity was once a slave, and is still the prey of creatures no one dreamed existed. The universe is much darker and stranger than we can ever imagine.
Our world borders a multiverse and the walls are dangerously thin. Now, it is collapsing, a seething abyss is swarming in, and nothing will ever be the same again.
Some children are adepts–mutants that have developed powers even they don't understand. But there is precious little time for them to learn the truth.
No one is your friend, there is no help and there is no way out.
About the Author
Dan's early career included a year and a half-stint drawing political cartoons for Madcap Magazine and illustrating underground projects such as Maximum Rock and Roll. In 1997, after struggling through a violent car crash and a knife fight with a crackhead that severed the tendon on his left thumb, he attended art school. Receiving some commercial and local gallery acclaim for his artwork, he moved to New York City in an attempt to kick-start an art career. Heavily immersing himself in the local hardcore scene, he produced artwork for the bands Shai Hulud, Indecision, Koshari, Unsound, Coalesce, Most Precious Blood, Locked in a Vacancy, Beyond Reason, and Zombie Apocalypse, not to mention various local record labels and venues.
His first novel, The Black Seas of Infinity, was published by Anarchy Books in 2011, and he started an illustrated calendar featuring a variety of artists. Deadite Press released the first book with a cover by Dan, a novel entitled "The Sopaths" by Piers Anthony.
A limited edition chapbook "Christmas Is Cancelled" came out courtesy of Splatterpunk in 2013, and in 2014 he started columns for TAM, Tattoo Revue, and Skin Art magazines.
A reissue of his debut novel was released by Permuted Press in April 2015, as well as a collection of his short stories entitled "Down Highways In The Dark...By Demons Driven".
He continued his work for independent magazines, doing art for Red Door Magazine, a slew of books by the imprint Out Of Step, and every issue so far of the British horror zine Splatterpunk. The books "Not Dead", "Fighting Back", "Past Indiscretions", "Insatiable", "Bloodstains", "Tales For Dark Hours", "The Red Death" and "The Flood" all featured his work. His third book, "The End of the World" debuted in March of 2018.
His heavily illustrated anthology entitled "The Never Dead" featuring 14 authors and 16 stories just debuted across all platforms in 2023.
