Catching up!

I cannot believe it has been so many years since updating my blog! Life and a great deal of writing has clearly got in the way. To make things simple here is my latest CV. that lists all the new books.

Raven Dane is a UK based author of dark fantasy, alternative history, steampunk novels and horror short stories. Her first books were the dark fantasy Legacy of the Dark Kind trilogy. These were followed by a High Fantasy spoof, The Unwise Woman of Fuggis Mire. Her steampunk novels are the award winning Cyrus Darian and the Technomicron and Cyrus Darian and the Ghastly Horde. She has had many short stories published, including one in a celebration of forty years of the British Fantasy Society and in many international horror anthologies. These have included Crystal Lake’s Tales of the Lake 2 and Shallow Waters Volume 2. She also had a story in Frightmare –Women Write Horror which was shortlisted for a prestigious Bram Stoker award in 2016. She also has short stories in anthologies in the Gruesome Grotesque series published by TK Publishing and in a range of anthologies edited by Dean M Drinkel.
In 2013, she was signed up by Telos Publishing for her collection of Victorian ghost stories, Absinthe and Arsenic and in 2015, the alternative history/ supernatural novel, Death’s Dark Wings. All the Cyrus Darian books are now with Telos. The third book in the series, Cyrus Darian and the Wicked Wraith was launched in August 2019 by Telos.
A lifelong Dr Who fan, Raven was delighted to be part of the script team on a spin off film, The Daemons of Devil’s End by Reeltime Pictures in 2017. She also contributed to the novelisation of the film, published by Telos.
Raven brought out a horror novella, The Bane of Bailgate in 2018.
Her novella set in a chaotic, dystopian future, The House of Wrax was launched by Demain Publishing in 2020 to enthusiastic reviews from Science Fiction critics.
Also with Demain Publishing, Raven was honoured to be chosen to have a short story in an anthology based in the grim world of the Quiet Apocalypse novellas by celebrated author Dave Jeffreys.
Her scurrilous parody of High Fantasy, The Unwise Woman of Fuggis Mire was republished in 2022 with a beautiful new cover.
Raven is currently working on a prequel to the Legacy of the Dark Kind trilogy, The Blood of Kings and a novel set in Cyrus Darian’s dystopic, haunted Victorian London.
A republished edition of Blood Tears is now available with an amazing cover. This will be followed shortly with Blood Lament and Blood Alliance
