FATHER OF THE FUTURE, my next Darren Dash book for mature readers, goes on sale on October 18th. It's a satirical, time-travelling tale that looks at the dangers of putting too much power into the hands of an AI, and what happens to humanity if we cede too much control over our lives to the machines that we create.

I'm not going to reveal the cover just yet, but here's a sneak teaser for it, revealing a small, central part of the overall work. I think my designer has done a fabulous job, and I'm very excited to share it with you guys in the near future -- I don't have a specific date for the reveal in mind, I'm just going to go with my gut and stick it up when I feel the moment is right. That will probably be at some point in September, so keep checking back regularly if you want to be among the first to cast your gaze on the face of the Future!!!

The eBook is already available to PRE-ORDER through Amazon, Apple, B&N, Google Play, Kobo, Smashwords and lots of other online stores -- and the good news is that although I initially listed the price as being $4.99, in the end I've settled on $2.99, so it's not going to bust your wallet if you want to buy it!! (If you have already pre-ordered the book, don't worry, you will only be charged the revised rate when it goes on sale.) It will be on sale all around the world, at a similar low price in your local currency, e.g. £1.99 in the UK, €2.75 in Europe. A paperback will also be published, though that will obviously be quite a bit more expensive because of the costs involved. (I always make about the same from a paperback as I do from an eBook, so it makes no difference to me which you choose to buy.) Current pre-ordering links can be found below, with more to follow closer to the book's release.
