About Me
Darrel King has been writing ever since the age of eight. His first published work of fiction was penned during the fall of 1976 as a student of Mary Field’s Elementary School on South Carolina’s Daufuskie Island. This effort was an adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkein’s “The Hobbit,” that he also wrote and illustrated. It was published in the school’s quarterly periodical, “The Daufuskie Kid’s Magazine.”


Darrel King has written stories and numerous poems, several of which were published in the 1995-1996 “Poetry Anthology” by the National Library of Poetry in Owings Mills, Maryland.

During the 90s, Darrell King became inspired by and attracted to the lurid tales of inner city crime. Dramas he read in novels by great writers such as Donald Goines and Iceberg Slim captivated his attention. These tales prompted Mr. King to begin his literary career writing his very own stories of urban crime and inner city drama.

Darrel King is the author of Mack Daddy: Legacy of a Gangsta, Dirty South ( Triple Crown) and How Do You Want It?(Urban Books) Mo' Dirty : Still Stuntin’ (Urban Books) is his latest release and the much anticipated sequel to Dirty South.

Darrell King was raised in South Carolina's Dufuskie Island. He now resides in Maryland with his wife and children.

Mo'Dirty Still Stuntin' by Darrell King



Mo'Dirty:Still Stuntin'
by Darrell King
$14.95
Urban Books


Whiskey Battle is a 24-year-old enforcer for Peola, Georgia’s
Bad Boyz II Syndicate, a dangerous street gang controlling
the lion’s share of illicit narcotics coming into the bustling
port of Savannah.

As a hustler, he does what he needs to survive, which means
making the right connections with the underworld.

Together, the bosses and thugs of the low country join forces with rogue cops
to bring a permanent end to the term of a meddlesome police chief, whose war
on crime has angered many of the shot callers and big ballers of the dirty-dirty.
With the headache of the top cop gone, can they depend on the crooked officers
to eliminate their connections?


Reader Reviews

King pulls the reader into the dangerous world of the southern drug game.
This story is full of non-stop drama, police corruption, and murder that will keep readers glued to the pages. Mo' Dirty is a gritty page-turner that will keep you guessing until the very end.

Last week I got a check for $900! Really, no joke, I thought I couldn't do it myself, but I did. And it really helped me out my family financially because i'm a stay at home mom. But here's the article I read: www.news4show.com/finance/google-hiring-you.html hopefully it works out for you too, God bless!
