I am pleased to announce that I have finally committed to an actual date to publish my next book, Dancing in Valhalla. It will hit the shelves on 21 April 2019.
13 twisted tales of music, magick & mayhem.
Meet Noddy and Morag, scratching out a living in Johannesburg's underground club scene.
Savour the unique main course prepared in a French chateau.
Shop for shrunken heads in a village that time forgot.
Follow a private detective involved in one hell of a case.
And sit in on the Grim Reaper's disciplinary hearing.
One of these scribblings was recently longlisted in the top 200 entries out of 5 000 stories submitted to the international Commonwealth Short Story Prize. Another one even made me a small amount of money once upon a time.
Dancing in Valhalla will be released at all your normal online retailers on 21 April - and in paperback - but only a few retailers currently list the pre-order edition. They can be found at https://books2read.com/valhalla/ .
You can find a sneak preview of the first story in the collection at https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/dancing-in-valhalla-john-west/1130336549;jsessionid=AB494A3139ACF0E3E52A96F963F4C506.prodny_store02-atgap18?ean=2940156327416&st=AFF&2sid=Draft2Digital_7968444_NA&sourceId=AFFDraft2Digital&fbclid=IwAR2PArg6qIuS5v6UgyQbYtnZo-6S_y9YCSzqA_aPFd95eVX_VKTLj7TvkZ4 .
Sit back and enjoy an assortment of characters almost as twisted as the endings of these tales.
