Rhys Hughes is a prolific short story writer with an eclectic mix of influences. Much of his work is of a humorously eccentric bent, often parodies and pastiches with surreal and absurdist overtones, although he is by no means limited to any of these forms and has proven to be extremely versatile.

Madonna Park is a collection of six sublime stories from a true master of words. Rhys Hughes is Wales’ best kept literary secret. Championed by the likes of Michael Moorcock, his unique fantastical fictions have already achieved the level of cult-status. His fiction is both intellectual and hilarious with plenty of puns and satirical side-swipes to keep the reader constantly amused.

PLUTONIAN PARODIES by Rhys Hughes

“…what might be dream in others, in Hughes, is material accessible to his waking mind. If Edgar Allan Poe were living, he could probably analyse it and tell us something about the Rhys Hughes who amazes us.” – Everett F. Bleiler

For more than twenty years Rhys Hughes has been producing carefully crafted parodies of his favourite authors, parodies written with love as well as a comic appreciation of the dark side. Now gathered together under one cover are the three parodies he regards as his finest. Three sly but deeply affectionate twists of the knife into the hearts of Poe, Lovecraft and Hemingway. He says they asked for it. Really they did. Honest!

Set on a sparsely populated island in the Hebrides, a small group of archaeology students open what appears to be an early Neolithic burial mound and release an ancient race of creatures that have existed since long before the days of Christ.

Survivors of the initial onslaught must do battle with these monstrous pre-humans, who are as intelligent as they are deadly.

£1.99 - Non Members (£1.70 p/p) ~ £1.40 - Members (£1.10 p/p)

Two dark stories from a fast rising star in UK fiction.

Creeper - Katrina Winters knew that she was crazy. But that didn’t mean that something wasn’t very wrong at the Bellevue Clinic. The vines seemed innocuous enough during the daytime, but at night they stretched and spread and crept...And they’d found a way in.

Lucky - He had been in a car accident and he was lucky to be alive. As he began to heal and memories emerged from the fog, he couldn’t quite understand how he’d ended up in an isolated edifice of a hospitalin the woods...or why his room was soundproofed.
