-- English & German versions -- It was in the early morning hours of a bitter-cold January 31st that William Balthazar Armenstreed solved the Kopolsky puzzle. There was a sharp click in the otherwise absolute silence of the flat, the house, the narrow street with its seamless rows of old brickwork houses and ancient trees ... This is another story building on ideas from my ongoing worldbuilding project. It's not so much a "regular" short story and more like what a first chapter could be - like an opening window into the themes of the main project. There is a great review by @TaintedBloodBooks, check it out here: https://taintedbloodbookscom.wordpress.com/2024/08/05/book-review/ Btw, page 1 is the English version ("The King in Scarlet Black"), page 2 the German ("Der Fürst in Scharlachblau"). Happy reading! --- Es war in den frühen Morgenstunden eines bitterkalten 31. Januar, als William Balthazar Armenstreed das Kopolsky-Rätsel löste. Es gab einen scharfen Klick in der ansonst absoluten Stille der Wohnung, des Hauses, der engen Straße mit seinen nahtlosen Backsteinhäusern und alten Bäumen ... Dies hier ist eine weitere Geschichte, die auf Ideen aus meinem laufenden Worldbuilding-Projekt aufbaut. Es ist weniger eine „normale" Kurzgeschichte, sondern mehr ein erstes Kapitel - eine Art Fenster für Themen des Hauptprojekts. Es gibt eine großartige Rezension von @TaintedBloodBooks, schaut da mal rein: https://taintedbloodbookscom.wordpress.com/2024/08/05/book-review/ Btw, auf Seite 1 findet Ihr die englische Version ("The King in Scarlet Black"), auf Seite 2 die deutsche Version ("Der Fürst in Scharlachblau"). Happy reading!

-- English & German versions -- A heist gone wrong. A young ex-sniper lying in the dark of the subway, her leg trapped in the wreckage. A thing sniffing around, searching. Searching for the box. The box she has stolen... Get into the night! Into the museum with its artifacts! Into the subway where the world and the past come crashing down-and hope is just one clever thought away... Hi guys, we're back, this time again with something more experimental-a storyline that backtracks through its timeline. Kind of curious whether this works for you-at least, it was quite some fun to write! Especially when the story suddenly switches to Syria, and I have absolutely no idea how that happened... :-) There is a brilliant review by @TaintedBloodBooks, check it out here: https://taintedbloodbookscom.wordpress.com/2024/11/02/book-review-hexenbox/ And another review by bookishbeam on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/DB_vkM8TYHn/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Happy reading!

-- English & German versions -- A young scientist for arctic studies follows the ominous last notes of her institute's founder into something that by modern science has no right to exist: a dead place beyond ... The story here picks up ideas from my on-going worldbuilding project. It's a bit darker and maybe even more classic horror than I usually write, including also some more "baroque" language (I don't know how that happens sometimes ... ;-) ). There is an absolutely beautiful review by @TaintedBloodBooks, check it out here: https://taintedbloodbookscom.wordpress.com/2024/06/08/book-review-the-blanked-cold/ And another review by reads.emma at Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/DB_CGlLOeH6/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== So proud of these :-) Btw, page 1 is the English version ("The Blanked Cold"), page 2 the German ("Die Leere Kälte"). Happy reading! --- Eine junge Wissenschaftlerin für Arktisforschung folgt den ominösen letzten Aufzeichnungen ihres Institutsgründers hin zu etwas, das gemäß moderner Wissenschaft gar nicht existieren sollte: ein Ort jenseits unserer Welt ... Die Story hier greift Ideen aus meinem aktuellen Worldbuilding-Projekt auf. Alles etwas düsterer und vielleicht sogar etwas mehr klassischer Horror, als das, was ich normalerweise schreibe, inclusive einee etwas "barockeren" Sprache (ich habe keine Ahnung, warum das manchmal so passiert ... ;-) ). Es gibt eine fantastische Rezension von @TaintedBloodBooks (auf Englisch), die findet Ihr hier: https://taintedbloodbookscom.wordpress.com/2024/06/08/book-review-the-blanked-cold/ Und noch ein Review von reads.emma auf Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/DB_CGlLOeH6/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Frei mich total über beide :-) Btw, auf Seite 1 findet Ihr die englische Version ("The Blanked Cold"), auf Seite 2 die deutsche Version ("Die Leere Kälte") Happy reading!
