Richard Kadrey’s shorter works include six individually published stories and novellas from 2003 to 2021. These range from science fiction pieces like Suspect Zero to horror-tinged tales like Bad Blood, each standing alone as independent works outside his main series.
The stories show Kadrey working at shorter lengths across the genres he moves between in his novels. Some experiment with ideas and tones that differ from his series work, while others explore the same dark, humorous territory that defines his longer fiction.
