Death, hubris, and the unfathomable dread of outer space. Welcome to the twisted worlds of Bloody Colony.

As our journey continues into the darkest reaches of the universe, we learn that exposure to the horrors of the outermost colonies can turn anyone into a monster. Book 4 comprises four novelettes of deadly games, gruesome discoveries, and brutal hordes.

Lured to Kotharat with false promises, Florin Gheorghe discovers the harsh realities of frontier life in a colony with only one sentence for any crime - “Death by Murder”.

Nineteen unremarkable years have passed for security guard Stanislaw Tisza, but tonight, in “The Amoral Imperative”, a simple choice will dictate the future of an entire civilisation.

Barton and Roxanne Rivers are days away from starting a new life on Lalande VII, but when Barton is invited to a high-stakes game on the colony ship, his compulsive gambling may cost them everything in “Barton's Wager”.

Life on the colony world of Orthrus is hard, especially for those in the lowest social classes. As a outbreak of the undead grips the city, paramedics Annalise Talbot and Mikhael Rodchenko must hold the line against the massing hordes in “Zombulance”.

With powerful imagery and shocking twists at every turn, Bloody Colony is a must-read for fans of sci-fi horror. If you enjoy “Black Mirror”, “The Expanse”, or “The Twilight Zone”, you’ll love the unexpected tales of Bloody Colony. Be prepared to enter a universe of fear that will haunt you long after you turn the last page.

TRIVIA

The “Bloody Colony” book series comprises twenty stories, spans three hundred years, and includes over one hundred and sixty characters. A rich mythology spanning over 500 light-years.

QUOTES

Edward Shockley: “Just like the others, I thought it free will. We learned too late, and I accept no responsibility for this whatsoever. Once anyone places a hand within the frame, all notions of self-determination become subject to a kind of superimposition. In there, in that indescribable hell, decisions are based on outcomes, not the other way around.”

INFO

The eBook and paperback versions include a glossary, which allows readers to delve even further into the mystique and wonderment of “Bloody Colony”.

This chilling Sci-Fi book series reveals the consequences of unbridled human expansion through twenty harrowing tales spanning three centuries and thirty light-years.

From brutal alien encounters to impossible choices, these stories take you on a journey through the darkest corners of human nature and out into the savagery of the unknown.

But be warned — the worlds of Bloody Colony are a labyrinth of horror, and once you enter, the nerve-racking sounds and terrifying sights will trap you forever.

Issac Grey Lambert is optimistic about the future, and fiction allows us to think through the ramifications of our collective actions before we get there.

Issac is a writer, musician, and artist. He is the author of the Bloody Colony book series, blending visions of the future of human colonisation with tales of hubris, greed, and arrogance. Issac's latest release, "The Porch Pirate Killer" is now available.

His executive editor, a local cat who drops by to supervise his writing efforts, is almost certainly using mind control to ensure a steady supply of fishy treats.

Issac's books are available exclusively on Amazon Books.
