Description

Get the first three GenrePunk Books releases in 2025, rolling out between January and March. This bundle includes:

What We Talk About When We Talk About Brains: The Red Rain Stories (Coming January 21)

Vicious storms of red rain sweep across Australia, raising the dead as zombies hungry for human flesh. Fortunately, we’ve all seen zombie movies and know what comes next, allowing the locals to band togetherand live small, desolate, ordinary livesdespite the ever-present danger.

Drawing inspiration from George Romero and Raymond Carver in equal measure, Peter M. Ball presents six dirty realism tales of quiet desperation and spare, razor-sharp narration in a world overrun by the walking dead.

Unfamiliar Shores: Short Stories (Coming February 25)

A desperate future where humanity lives in the ruins of old buildings, avoiding the streets haunted by predatory cars who hunt for sport. Off-duty time travellers stop Viking invasions that interrupt a well-earned night out.

A clowder of cats gathers around a mysterious fire to tell stories of what might be, and teenage friends turned bitter rivals compete in a race that sends giant mecha sprinting across a frost-bound colony.

A cosplayer turns superhero when aliens invade. A cop makes an ill-advised deal with the devil, and monster hunters looking to make their mark interrupt a demonic wedding.

Peter M. Ball returns with his fourth short story collection, bringing together 20 science fiction, fantasy, and horror tales that are often dark, always unexpected, and sure to please long-time fans and new readers alike.

On Writing Series: Series Poetics & Digital Publishing (Coming March 25)

Series fiction has exploded in popularity alongside the rise of digital publishing, drawing renewed attention from readers and institutions alike.

Yet writing series fiction isn’t always easy. Developing characters and stories capable of sustaining reader interest over multiple iterations is a challenge for any author, while our understanding of how series fiction differs from writing stand-alone titles addressed via anecdote and commercial framings rather than an engagement with writing craft.

Through On Writing Series, Peter M. Ball argues digital publishing not only changes the marketing environment in which series fiction is published, but also has profound effects on the writer’s craft. We not only publish series fiction differently, but write it differently as well.
