Coming up on the 2 year anniversary of Shadow of the Mad Reaper, and it's about time we gave y'all an update on the next installment in the Will of the Weavers series. M. Blackwood has been hard at work putting together an absolutely massive follow up, complete with all the things you love: ancient mysteries, undead worlds, absurd cosmic wizard battles, probably a bit too much nudity, and even more Lovecraftian horror than the first book. Follow our heroes as their hunt for the Hammer of Mallum's shards takes them to the very birthplace of darkness. Watch as Siro learns just how twisted the Lenser's Game is, and how much darker he'll have to become if there's any hope of winning.
New artwork coming down the pipeline soon! Keep an eye out for the diagram of the Weaver's reality engine, Ondyr Syur. It's going to be one hell of a ride.
7-jul-2022 LFG: calling all punks
As we near our one year anniversary, we are excited to announce that the second installment in the Definitive Hosttrilogy is already in the final stages of production. If your first dose of space magic has you hooked, you won't want to miss out on Skin for a Demon. Expect updates on that soon enough.
In the meantime, we are on the hunt for new blood. If you're an independent author who spends your days/nights in the realm of cosmic occult and sci-fi-horror-adjacent spaces, and you're looking for a group of like-minded folk doing the same, then we welcome you to submit your work for review. Join a community that's snorting just as much grimdank as you. Join the Punks.
20-oct-2021 ground zero: day one
It's a mighty special feeling, breaking free of your gestation pod to make a first meal of fleeing, screaming scientists as they try to escape the lab's automated emergency lockdown. And we'd like to invite you to join us in the mayhem as Spacepunk Publishing expands, consumes and assimilates every organism within reach. Our vision is to explore the unmapped fringes of science fiction where stories, ideas and hand-crafted universes that would never see the light of day at a traditional publisher can be allowed to fester into maturity. We seek sprawling, seething worlds filled with as much horror as magic, and rich characters that reach out at you from the page. The first of these comes in the form of a sci-fi horror written on the scale of an epic fantasy. Shadow of the Mad Reaper by Magnus Blackwood is book one of the Definitive Host Trilogy, itself a beginning to a series set in the Shine, an alien universe that arises out of a game played by insane space wizards. If you've been craving a draft of grimdark sci-fi with tones of fantasy, horror and the occult, then you'll find it in this far-future hell, seen through the eyes of a doomed man out for revenge.
