What happens when heroes fail?
What happens when victory turns to ash?
What happens to those left to pick up the pieces?
The city of Majadan was the crossroad of nations, a haven
for travelers, and the birthplace of heroes. For two thousand years we stood as
a bastion against the hordes of the Madlands and their masters, the dreaded Wight
Lords. After centuries of strife between the defenders of civilization and the
Madlands’ undead kings, General Aidan Arkwright – the hero of the age – vowed to
bring an end their reign.
When Aidan returned victorious, we citizens of Majadan threw
a party fit for the gods – a celebration that few would survive. I was there
when Aidan’s triumph drowned in blood and fire, and the fight to reclaim our
city began. This is the tale of the end of the world, and the struggle of those
who survived.

Here’s the plan with which I’m tempting fate: I’ve been
working on this story on-and-off for a very long time. Next summer, it will see
the light of day. After much gnashing of teeth, rending of garments, and enough
revisions to make your eyes bleed, I hereby announce:
THE BATTLE FOR
MAJADAN
The Blood Prayer
(June 1, 2021)
The Bone Collar
(July 15, 2021)
The Ghost Cauldron
(September 1, 2021)
I’ll drop more details as those release dates approach, such
as covers, excerpts, and when the books go up for presale. There will
certainly be print copies for sale, but my intent is to make the ebook edition of The
Blood Prayer available for free.
Stay tuned! And be warned: These books will be bloodier than a
GWAR concert. Bring popcorn.
