New to my writing? Start here.

April 30, 2012

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you’ll find something you like here.

If you want to read something short, check out the free stories available on the site and the links under “Publications” on the left go to other places my stories have been published. Some of those are free to read online.

If you prefer longer works, I have free samples of all of my novels available on the site. Beautiful Red was my first book, and is a standalone cyberpunk story. Self Made, Act of Will and The Beauty of Our Weapons are a series (in that order) about future detective Andersson Dexter.

    I can’t get enough cyber punk genre and when I read Beautiful Red I instantly became obsessed with the story. I really like how the story is so close to our own horizon and I can see so many of the aspects of the story actually happening and coming about in our not so distant future. This is a great short novel and I can see a potentially great movie based on it. Jack is a great character and a great example of how to escape the trope structure. I hope this work is not missed by anyone who enjoys this genre.

A teal, purple and amber circular swirl with images of different landscapes (various futuristic cityscapes, an endless suburban street, a desert world) and flying whales. Text reading Transmentation | Transience by Darkly Lem.

Transmentation | Transience: Or, An Accession to the People’s Council for Nine Thousand Worlds (The Formation Saga)

From bestselling authors Darkly Lem comes Transmentation | Transience, the first book in a sweeping multiverse of adventure and intrigue perfect for fans of Jeff Vandermeer and The Expanse series.

Over thousands of years and thousands of worlds, universe-spanning societies of interdimensional travelers have arisen. Some seek to make the multiverse a better place, some seek power and glory, others knowledge, while still others simply want to write their own tale across the cosmos.

When a routine training mission goes very wrong, two competing societies are thrust into an unwanted confrontation. As intelligence officer Malculm Kilkeneade receives the blame within Burel Hird, Roamers of Tala Beinir and Shara find themselves inadvertently swept up in an assassination plot.
