About this ebook
A Dark Fantasy Double-Feature
The Prince and the Darkness combines A Long Walk Down a Dark Alley and The Prince of Luster and Decay into one bargain-priced volume.
The first four short stories feature wise guys and private eyes, black magic, bleak futures, and the feminine wiles of inhuman beauties. Your imagination will flicker with the atmospheric images of mobsters and monsters, all cast in black and white—and red.
These deliciously dark tales are followed by a lengthy novelette of sword and soldiery warfare, where the enemy isn’t just fought on battlefields, but in the soul as well.
Five cross-genre stories to tempt and terrify.
Both original volumes are also available as ebooks, paperbacks, and richly-told audiobooks.

Author
J. D. Brink
If taking a college fencing class, eating from the trash can, and smelling like an animal were qualifications for becoming a sword-swinging barbarian, J. D. Brink might be Conan’s protégé. But since that career path seemed less than promising, he has instead been a sailor, spy, nurse, and officer in the U.S. Navy, as well as a gravedigger, insurance adjuster, and school teacher in civilian life. Today (fall, 2014) he and his family live in Japan, where he's providing a bad example for all Americans. In his writing, as in life, Mr. Brink enjoys dabbling in multiple genres.
