Ghostwriter Picks Up Derek Gunn's HMS Swift Chronicles
A new historical horror fiction book incorporating two stories from Irish writer Derek Gunn (Vampire Apocalypse series, The Estuary) titled The HMS Swift Chronicles, has been picked up by Ghostwriter Publications in the UK, for publication in 2009 in hardback, paperback and audio editions.
Set against the historical backdrop of the fragile peace that existed between the American Revolution, the looming French Revolution and the threat of Napoleon's growing empire, the crew of the HMS Swift face the walking dead in "The Diabolical Plan"and vampires in "The Island".
The year is 1791 and Captain Thomas Butler and his loyal crew of The HMS Swift, a class five frigate in the service of King George III of England, are sent on a series of missions where nothing is what it seems and forces far darker than any of them have experienced before, reign supreme.
"I'm really delighted that these stories have been picked up. It's great to have found a publisher who enjoys historical horror fiction as much as I enjoy writing it", says author Derek Gunn
Ghostwriter Publications, www.ghostwriterpublications.com is a new UK publisher who specialise in the horror and supernatural genre. Working in conjunction with best-selling author, Guy N. Smith, they began printing a number of limited edition hardcovers and audiobooks of a number of his most popular works.
