My Books

As I enjoy reading all sorts of fiction, my writing whims are just as varied. It’s a bit like food, really. One day you’re craving something spicy, and the next, you want something light and quick. I’ve probably mentioned I’m Moody, and there’s not much to be done about it.

While writing books was always a dream, it wasn’t the path I initially followed. I dabbled a bit in my late teens but ended up channelling my creativity into graphic design instead. It wasn’t until my early thirties that the dream of writing books took over. I likely met the right people at the right time, and before I knew it, my first three books were published.

Humour & Sex Trilogy (Trilogie Humor & Sex)

The first book was a collection of 20 erotic fairytales, inspired by the classics we all know. If you’re expecting something steamy, you’d be mistaken. These are light-hearted stories where erotica adds a twist, based on the fairytales everyone grew up with.

After the first book’s success, they asked me to write another. This time, I took characters from books, movies, and TV shows I love and wrote short stories featuring them. Once again, humour took the lead with a dash of erotica. Ever wondered about Dracula’s funny side? Or the challenges of casting spells as a bespectacled teenage wizard?

The third book in the series dives into history, featuring infamous kings, queens, and even a pope from Alexander the Great to Napoleon, all in cheeky stories that might, just might, have happened.

When I wrapped up those short stories, I took a breather, jumped back into my Art Director career, and then chased my Australian dream. It was only recently that I wrote my fourth book, Children of Blood. By then, that nagging inner voice (you know, the one that says what your best mate wouldn’t dare) was pushing me to aim higher, so I went ahead and self-published it, using my graphic design skills for the cover.

Children of Blood (Děti krve)

I’ve always felt that humour and sarcasm are my things. And I’m stubborn enough to insist that they’re the key ingredients, the prized spices in any book of any genre. Yes, even in a thriller, though it’s wise to tread carefully.

Anyway… Children of Blood is a very different kind of fantasy book. If you’re expecting the typical fantasy hero—honourable, strong, unbeatable, always right—then this book might not be for you. However, if you crave wild supernatural creatures, magic, and characters who don’t bother with political correctness (they even prefer a powerful royal family ruling instead of democracy), and of course, if you appreciate the art of poison and aren’t afraid to wield a stiletto when necessary, then yes, Children of Blood might just be the book for you.

The narrative is told from the perspective of a regular marketing guy who finds himself in a parallel universe where everyone wants to kill him. Fortunately, he not only manages to survive but uses his sarcasm to take you on a thrilling ride, front-row seat included.

Craving the Shadow

This is my first book in English, and I loved playing with the language. It explores various kinks and desires but also tackles deeper themes. The main character, Katty, fears losing her independence in a relationship, challenging the idea that all women want a fairy-tale ending. Alongside the steamy moments, she uncovers a shocking family secret that shakes her identity, all while navigating a suspenseful, thrilling plot full of twists. The story also delves into the complexities of abusive relationships, highlighting the struggles of women too scared to commit and those trapped in destructive dynamics.

Craving the Shadows is a dark and gripping tale of two women bound by blood but divided by fate. With raw insights into the adult industry and Katty’s own mysterious journey simmering beneath, this is a story of strength, secrets, and survival.

Available on Amazon in e-book, paperback, and hardcover formats.

Inspector Daryl Stout Book Series

I lived, studied, and worked down under for 5 years. When I was looking for a big city where killers would occasionally murder their victims in a truly awful way, let’s face it, why not Sydney? It’s beautiful, well-known, and large enough that there would always be people left even after Inspector Stout catches the culprit—whether it’s a bastard or a bitch. In the first book of the series, Red Peppers, three women band together to take revenge on handsome, successful men, subjecting them to the most dreadful fates imaginable.

At the moment, I’m knee-deep in another crime novel featuring Inspector Stout. Blue Book is a fresh spin on the classic crime mystery, blending the timeless intrigue of the genre with a modern twist and cutting-edge technology.
