I'm Robert Friedrich, and I am the author of The Darkness Within. One of the first Fiction Novella's specially dedicated to Metal & Metalheads around this world. The project started back in the late 2006/early 2007 and took till 2013 to be completely finalized, written, polished and now published. I am originally born in Slovakia, but reside abroad before returning to Europe. I am a freelance writer and this is my biggest undertaking and it is not my last one. Besides this project I also write on my own blog, and I did freelance work on the American comedy website Cracked.com. I always had a vivid imagination and it took some pain, guts and a ton of misfortunes to bring me to this point where I harnessed all my energy and stepped out to do the things I really want to do. If you are a fan of Horror/Sci-fi you will enjoy this book, and even if you are not it may still change your perspective. I am a very open minded person and surely hope you will enjoy this story.
