Extraordinary books for extraordinary people!
Dark Helix Press is a vibrant indie publisher based in Toronto, dedicated to amplifying diverse voices across genres. Since our launch in 2014, we’ve championed fiction, non-fiction, and YA/children’s titles that stretch from the literary to the fantastical.
Our mission is simple: to make space for stories that challenge, inspire, and reflect the many faces of our world.
