Chain Reaction Press: Challenge Your Horizon!

Chain Reaction Press publishes science fiction and fantasy novels. We are currently acquiring manuscripts. Please visit our Submissions page for more details.

As a press, our mission is to publish books that let the reader escape their everyday existence and to publish works capable of exploring important issues facing the world in a speculative fiction format. We strive to provoke thoughtful moods and immerse our readers in grand adventures. We want our books to be as important in our readers' lives as any other form of entertainment. Unlike most of the shallow media content we are soaked in every day, Chain Reaction Press books will make positive, lasting impressions.

Chain Reaction Press is a modern press operating in the rapidly changing publishing world. We offer our authors intense marketing efforts, long-term backlist sales, national distribution, and personal attention to each unique book. Chain Reaction Press has close ties with several other imprints (see below), including producers of graphic novels, and we expect to create illustrated novels and graphic novel versions of some of our books.

This web site will be growing with more information about the press and useful and entertaining material related to science fiction and fantasy. Check in on us regularly and see how we do. We would appreciate your comments for what you would like to see on this site.
