Welcome to the Darkside

About Me


Biography:
Hadesgate Publications is an up and coming publisher specialising in horror and fantasy. As a company we are of the opinion that the dark fantasy and horror market is sadly lacking in fresh blood and we hope to give a new generation of authors the chance of seeing their work in print.
Formed in September 2005, we have grown rapidly, making connections with a lot of people, and enjoying every second of our existence.
We currently have five signed authors of whom we are very proud, and we look forward to the future as we are confident that it may hold great things.
You can find out more about us and our products by visiting our website, and you can also join our own set of forums if you'd like. Click the links below.

Take a look at the reading material we have on offer. Not bad for a new addition to the small press world. Help us move forward by purchasing a book so we can sign more and more new authors for next year.
TITLES AVAILABLE FROM HADESGATE PUBLICATIONS:
THE SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE OF WAYLAND SNOWBALL.
This cracking sci-fi/sex comedy by STEVE DEAN will make you laugh till your naughty bits ache.
A raunchy tale full of bawdy British humour and nipple eating fungus.
Tagline: IN SPACE NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU ORGASM.
TINY TERRORS VOL 1 (A pocket book anthology)
This is Hadesgate's valiant attempt to push new authors and artists into the limelight. Please support their efforts.
Gathered herein you will discover tales of unnerving terror. Terror that will grasp you by the throat and threaten to take you life.
You will hold in your hands a showcase of today's newest and best in the world of horror fiction and art.
Sit back, turn down the lights and, if you dare, enter the domain of the Tiny Terrors.
THINGS FROM THE PAST BY STEVEN DEIGHAN
This is a release that Hadesgate are very proud of. Mr Deighan is only 23 years old and has already managed to master the word to a level that would make some of his peers blush in embarrassment.

This - the first release from Hadesgate - has gone down a storm with reviewers around the globe.

HEAVEN'S FALLING: VOLUME 2: REDEMPTION.
The adventure is concluded in the outstanding second part of this groundbreaking series. This debut double book set by Mr Charles has been compared to The Dark Tower series by STEPHEN KING (source: KEVIN ETHERIDGE of the HORROR EXPRESS).
SOULKEEPERS BY STEVE DEAN
This is one the entire family can enjoy.
In a world where souls are stolen at birth two children and their primate friend stand ready to fight for freedom of emotion.
Are they ready to face their destiny?
FUTURE RELEASES
We already have a small line up of releases for 2007 and we are hoping to add more before the end of this year.
We will keep you posted, but for now the line up looks something like this:
TWISTED IMIGININGS by GARRY CHARLES:
A collection of short stories that will make you shit your pants in fear. This will feature an introduction by the very talented ALISON LR DAVIES, cover artwork by BEN BALE and an added bonus feature of THE WHISPERS OF WICKEDNESS ADVENT CALENDAR 2005.
Please note that 20p from every sale of this collection will go to the DebRA charity.
Release date pending.
MAGE REBORN BY STEVE DEAN:
Steve Dean yet again proves he is a king of the written world. He's done family friendly, he's done sci-fi and sex, but now he moves into adult fantasy adventure. He never ceases to amaze.
Release date will be SPRING 2007.
FILTH KISS BY CJ LINES:
This one will make your toes curl.
CJ LINES is the new GUY N SMITH. Take SHAUN HUTSON and turn it up to eleven and you'll be in the right ball park.
Release date will be AUTUMN 2007.
INFERNAL OFFSPRING BY BARRY J HOUSE:
Another collection from one of the newest names to hit the genre. Mr House has - in a very short period of time - had stories published all around the world. Some of these, and a good handful of never before seen gems, are about to be unleashed.
It's time to be introduced to Barry's children and they bite!
TINY TERRORS VOLUME 2:
With the success of volume 1 we are eager to continue showcasing new talent.
We are currently open to submissions for this project.
Theme: The work place.
Word count: Upto 8K words.
Deadline: 31 DEC.
Prizes to be confirmed.
We will be looking for artists to compliment the chosen tales. We offer you the coverage and 2 contributors copies. We'll probably send you other free shit too.
