RIVER DARK BOOKS
Our exciting new Collaborative Publishing project will launch in late 2026. This fully transparent service will publish curated and professionaly produced titles, working with the author to bring their vision to life - with guidance along the way. Royalty structures are completely different to our traditional publishing model (under which Temple Dark Books operates) because here the financial risk is yours.* We believe in having genuine conversations about sales prospects and shaping your expectations with honesty and accountability.
Please note that in order to avail of the Book Placement and Book Marketing aspects of the project (see below), you must be a Professional Member of Speculative Fiction Ireland. Check out the rates and Member Benefits here and contact us for a quote or with any queries using the form at the bottom of the page.

*River Dark Books (a trading name of Temple Dark Publications Ltd.) will facilitate the sale of physical and electronic books, and will forward 80% of net receipts from each sale to the respective author. "Net receipts" is the final amount received by River Dark Books at the end of the receipt process (which can include, but is not limited to, payment processing fees and shipping and customs fees). You can see an example of a sale on our website at the bottom of the SFI Home Page.
**We aim to have more booksellers joining us on this venture as it expands, in conjunction with the expansion of the SFI Partner Program.
