Under Dark Skies
Will be released on the 18th of October this year.
This land is ancient, steeped in myth and history. Monsters, sleeping, wake. Ghosts stalk the land. Stories, legends, become real and even the warmest of loves can be shattered on the cold rock of Argyll. I woke one day, under dark Skies, my hand on his belly, his taste on my tongue and knew that I would love him forever but sometimes Forever does not last that long.
Under Dark Skies. A monstrously good read. Don’t make any assumptions. Five Stars. Anne Welsh. “The Corbie Times”
Under Dark Skies. Is all I hoped it would be. A great story. Authentic characters and history. Bernard Cornwall. Historian.
Under Dark Skies we live, Under Dark Skies we wake and sleep and Under Dark Skies we die.
A Bit About Me
Welcome to the world of my creation.
Raymond Walker Is the award-winning author of nineteen novels, many compendiums of short stories and two books of poetry (though
he hates to admit to them). Raymond is a novelist, short story writer, father (of two cool kids), an occasional philosopher, political thinker, aesthete and lover of the ethereal and unusual.
He was born in 1962 and raised in Argyll, Scotland, before moving to Edinburgh to attend University.
His love of the countryside, forests, mountains, and the relics of his native Scotland are reflected in his writing. His tales echo the dark past and history, the unknown places, and wonders of Scotland at the point where reality dips into fantasy until nothing is quite as it seems.
Married for the second time, Raymond lives in Prestwick, Ayrshire with his beautiful wife, his inflated ego and his man shed.
Not one to be pigeon-holed his books range from Romances and Ghost stories to Historical fiction and fantasy. The winner of several
writing competitions, Mr. Walkers' books have received critical acclaim worldwide. A commemorative edition of the novel "A Shiver" was released on the first of December last year and his new novel "Under Dark Skies" will be out on the 18th of October this year.
"Cold Blue Eyes", an unexpected sequel to "Nut Brown Eyes" was released and the sequel to "The Dead Girl and the Wandering Tree"
"The Dark Kind" will be released at some point next year.
Over the Tears of the Fallen
The Dead, resurected, walk from the sea into a strange world that is no longer the one they left. An old dark god, ressurected, vengeful threatens towns and villages throughout Scotland. Our defence force, disgusting, bloated corpses, our heroes. This is the first volume in the trilogy "And the Sea shall give up it's Dead". But what do old fishermen do? They fight; the sea, the waves, in pubs and restaurants, the creatures of the deep, the weather. It is all they know; how to fight.
"Whilst I love the light, the sun and a blue sea, I see the beauty in a roiling thundrous sky, the grey darkness of the Atlantic and the impending doom of winter. "All bring thier comforts to me".

What’s New With Raymond Walker
As you can see from the notes above, Cold Blue Eyes is out now for purchase. "Under Dark Skies" will be released on the 18th of October. I have started doing a little pre-publication advertising and held a talk about its forthcoming release. Happily, the pre-publication reviews have been great. Comments such as "Dark and Delicious" From Lucy Briggs of "Wondrous Tales" and "A clever, accomplished Mystery" from fellow author Rob Anderson have done nothing but confirm my enthusiasm for this Book.
18th October.
Under Dark Skies.
