That Great Leviathan
When the arctic port thawed, surgeons and conspirators alike sharpened their knives. The renegade city of Northernmost withers under a century-old curse and royal tyranny, dying slowly - until the forces of progress storm its icy shores.
A questing knight arrives on swift wings, seeking redemption in this crisis. A gifted anatomist dabbles in arcane arts to divine the cause of the curse. A foreign doctor and a hinterland shaman blend ancient rites with modern medicine. A band of mercenaries search for a barbaric dragon-eater sealed away in a lonely tree. And the last scion of Northernmost's nobility struggles against the legacy of a god that beached itself in her domain.
It is a simple rule of alchemy - there is no time more dangerous and fateful than a moment of change.
You can purchase That Great Leviathan, a fantasy thriller at Amazon.
Whom Gods Would Destroy
You can purchase the first volume of my occult history of the First World War, Whom Gods Would Destroy, entitled The Architects of Hell, at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Kobo.WGWD is a deep dive in the paranormal events surrounding the Great War, a Weird War epic told through the style of an academic history book. Great for those who like challenging, ergodic works of religious horror, dark fantasy, historical fantasy, apocalyptic sci-fi, superheroics, the occult, and paranormal.
Here is a reading of the first chapter from KirkpattieCake on Youtube.
Bathwater
Virginia Roach is a teen mother living hand to mouth on the isolated island chain of Deep Cannaria, a tropical nation that cut itself off from the world in the midst of a magical war that wounded the sky and poisoned the sea with the fall of a dead godling. But that revolution is thirty years gone, and Virginia isn't one for politics. She wants a stable home. She wants to be a telephone line repairwoman or a witch. And she wants to get a good night's sleep. When she's called to meet her recently-paroled mother outside of the capital reformatory, her simple motorcycle trip is interrupted by misfortunes, misadventures, Bewilderness monsters, abyssal mobsters, and a freak hurricane that wails like a terrified baby.
Nothing comes easy in paradise.
