Paradise-1

An electrifying novel set in deep space and perfect for fans of science fiction and horror, Paradise-1 follows two agents from the United Earth Government as they investigate the complete disappearance of humanity’s first deep space colony.

When Special Agent Petrov and Dr. Lei Zhang are woken up from cryogenic sleep, dragged freezing and dripping wet out of their pods with the ships's alarms blaring in the background, they know something is very wrong. Warned by the Captain that they're under attack, they have no choice but to investigate.

It doesn't take much time to learn that they've been met by another vessel—a vessel from Paradis-One, Earth's first deep-space colony, and their final destination.

Worse still, the vessel is empty. And it carries with it the message that all communications from the 150,000 souls inhabiting the Paradis-One has completely ceased.

Petrov and Zhang must board the empty ship and delve further into deep space to discover the truth of the colony's disappearance—but the further they go, the more dangers loom.

David Wellington

David Wellington is a master of blending terror with humanity, crafting stories that make readers question what lurks beneath the surface of everyday life. Known for his innovative approach to horror, Wellington has carved out a unique space for himself in the genre, drawing on his extensive background in writing thrillers and speculative fiction. His works often merge the supernatural with the deeply personal, weaving narratives that are as emotionally resonant as they are spine-chilling.

Born in the United States, Wellington was drawn to storytelling from an early age, fascinated by the darker corners of literature and film. His early influences include everything from the works of Stephen King to the pulse-pounding tension of classic thrillers. It’s no surprise that his own books resonate with those who crave both the macabre and the relatable, filled with characters who are just as likely to be battling inner demons as they are facing literal ones.

David’s breakthrough came with the Monster Island series, a post-apocalyptic saga that introduced readers to a world overrun by zombies. But where many stories of the undead focus on gore and chaos, Wellington's writing stands out for its emotional depth, exploring survival, morality, and the complexity of human relationships in a world falling apart. This unique angle has earned him a loyal following, drawn to both his fast-paced, page-turning plots and the emotional stakes woven into every narrative.

What sets David Wellington apart is his ability to take familiar genre tropes and turn them on their head. Whether exploring apocalyptic horror, supernatural thrillers, or darker dystopian tales, his work is as much about exploring the psychology of his characters as it is about the horror that haunts them. It’s a tension that keeps readers on edge, not just with every shocking twist, but with the lingering sense that the true terror might lie within the characters themselves.

With a passion for both world-building and creating characters readers can’t help but root for—even as they face impossible odds—Wellington has become a staple in the world of modern horror and thriller fiction. Whether you’re drawn to his Monster series or his more recent ventures into supernatural thrillers, David Wellington’s ability to combine horror with humanity will keep you up late at night, questioning what you would do when the world turns dark.

His works are not just for fans of horror—they are for those who appreciate stories that push the boundaries of what fiction can do, delivering chills, thrills, and a deep dive into the human soul.

David Wellington also writes books under the pseudonym of D. Nolan Clark.

Red Space

In the vast and unforgiving reaches of space, danger isn't just lurking in the dark corners—it's woven into the very fabric of every mission, every starship, and every breath taken in the cold void. Red Space pulls you into a galaxy on the edge of collapse, where nothing is ever quite as it seems, and survival is just as uncertain as the shifting political landscape of interstellar factions.
