Novel
The shape of data screaming in the October night…
In the city of Genesia a chance encounter with Olympia, one of the clockwork dancers from the cabaret, leads Detective Evergreen Fox into a taking the job of finding a killer. Drawn into a world of deception and danger Fox faces both the fascists of the Renewal Society and their enemies in the underground movement known as the Masquerade. All the while he must contend with his growing fascination with Olympia and with the cyber augmentation in his head that has developed a taste for atrocity. As both a coup and a revolution threaten to tear the city apart Fox begins to understand that in a place that delights in masks it is impossible to know which side anyone is on.

In the town he has left behind strange forces begin to intrude. Days of rain are followed by an impenetrable fog. A mutilated dog doing lurks by the morgue. How will the secret Order respond as members fail to respond when sent to find out the truth?

Fragments of Onyx
Fragments of Onyx by Gary Budgen
“Absorbing and re-purposing the influences of J.G. Ballard and, in this case, Moorcock’s Dancers at the end of Time, Gary Budgen has conjured a haunting, claustrophobic and somewhat filmic post-apocalyptic scenario that is full of role play, suggestion, and distorting reflections. The author’s concern is time and one of its consequences – mortality. At times, Fragments of Onyx is deliberately uncomfortable reading but what are we as humans if we are not challenged by our artworks? Chilling and memorable, Gary Budgen is set to be the next great British Slipstream writer.”
Allen Ashley, British Fantasy Society President

Chrysalis
Chrysalis by Gary Budgen published by Horrified Press
Ten stories. Ten investigations into the transformations brought about by obsession, neglect and fanaticism. From an interspecies love affair on an alien world through the dead countries of a troubled imagination, the apocalypse as a product launch, and into the heart of the labyrinth. The chrysalis is about to open.
