Exclusive extended extract from Rope & Canvas
Posted by Fahrenheit Press on

Rope & Canvas by DDC Morgan ONE When the drunk took liberties with the barmaid, Calloway broke his nose. He should have lost his job. But the barmaid was a friend of Trudi Trauber and Trudi had a lot of influence at the arena. The drunk was lucky. If Trudi had got to him first, a broken nose would have been the least of his worries. Calloway tossed the drunk a beer towel to wipe the blood from his face. Then he yanked him by the collar of his threadbare jacket and dragged him down to the foyer and out...
In praise of Disorderly Women by Tina Jackson
Posted by Fahrenheit Press on

Disorderly women have always been my tribe, ever since I was a teenager at the back of the school bus, part of a gang of girls laughing their faces off, pulling faces and much worse at lorry drivers through the window. I love them - the women who ask why, and why not, and do what they want, and not what they're supposed to do. The witches, the hags, the divas, the cackling crones. The rebels. The gobby ones.

Posted by Fahrenheit Press on

Today we publish Project Prometheus by Matthew X. Gomez and we couldn't be prouder. There's no denying it's raised a few eyebrows in some quarters - we're known as a Crime Fiction publisher so aren't we waaaaay out of our lane publishing Science Fiction? The fact is that this book by Matt Gomez is as cool a slice of noir as you're ever going to find - author Derek Farrell recently said it better than we ever could - "Think William Gibson and Raymond Chandler in a blender with a splash of Phillip K Dick.

Sharpen Fist Here... the story behind the stories.
Posted by Fahrenheit Press on

We started publishing the Fahrenzine series back in early 2020 just as the first of the pandemic lockdowns hit. Like many publishers around the world we faced immediate challenges to our business. We had literally just published a manifesto on our website setting out our plans for 2020, these included publishing 60+ new books, curating a new monthly magazine, holding author events on both sides of the Atlantic and most ambitiously setting up our very own physical bookstore. Every aspect of this business strategy was immediately under threat and we had to pivot quickly to ensure Fahrenheit steered a steady...
