New book out!
The first Aeon of Chaos novel - ZHUULTON OF ZHUUL AND THE FEAST OF THE CENTIPEDE - is now available in paperback and eBook!
Zhuulton of Zhuul has been given a quest. Unfortunately for her, it looks more like a creative suicide plan than a realistic goal. Before three days are up, she must travel to the heart of an inhospitable empire, infiltrate an impregnable palace, slaughter fifteen kings as they sit down to lunch, and defeat the great demon centipede before he ascends to the fourth dimension. If she doesn’t, her best friend in the whole world will be eaten alive - with a side of mustard.
Luckily Zhuulton has the help of four shape-shifting demons, each with their own special power. One of them can sing. One of them can eat. One of them can smash things. And the fourth is filled with the dread essence of death itself.
Join Zhuulton and her magnificent companions for a madcap adventure crammed with sex, violence, and outright strangeness. Enter the Aeon of Chaos, where fantasy, horror, and humour collide!
‘Gruesome, anarchic, and absurd. Like Monty Python and the Holy Grail meets Kentaro Miura’s Berserk.’ - Elizabeth Bedlam

Baron Bad Trip is out!
My new novel BARON BAD TRIP is out on Amazon. Digital for now, print should be ready in a couple of days.
Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0963LF76B
What's the book about you ask? Here's the blurb:
A mysterious hallucinogenic compound known only as “Nightmare Fuel” has hit the streets, making bad trips come to life. The morgue is filling up with distorted and mutated bodies as hapless users are turned inside-out, devoured by subcutaneous insects, or otherwise destroyed by the drug.
There’s only one group qualified to handle such a threat – Team Super Heroin, a top secret CIA taskforce whose operatives gain supernatural powers from street drugs. Led by the teetotaling Agent Leary, the team soon discovers that a single entity is behind the emergence of the Nightmare Fuel – a monster from a realm of pure psychedelic psychosis known only as Baron Bad Trip.
Baron Bad Trip is a gonzo psychedelic horror thriller by B.J. Swann, creator of the Aeon of Chaos series. If Hunter S. Thompson and William S. Burroughs had co-written a silver age comic book, it might have turned out something like this.
