Raven’s a thief who just swallowed a dragon. A small one, sure, but now his arms are growing scales, the local wildlife is acting up, and his snarky AI familiar is no help whatsoever. Raven’s best friend Aik is a guardsman carrying a torch for the thief. A pickpocket and a guard? Never going to happen. And Aik’s ex-fiancé Silya, an initiate priestess in the midst of a magical crisis, hates Raven with the heat of a … Read more

Gullton Map - The Dragon Eater

Hey all… we’re just two months away from my first major release in twenty months – I released Dropnauts in May of 2021. I didn’t mean for it to take this long, but there were reasons. That said, I am thrilled to bring my new Tharassas Cycle to you thanks to Steven Radecki and Water Dragon Publications. It’s loosely connected to The Ariadne Cycle and Dropnauts, and to The Oberon Cycle too, falling somewhere in the middle of these two time-wise. It’s my boy-eats-dragon, other boy-wears-gauntlet, girl-becomes hencha queen YA/Adult crossover sci-fantasy four book trilogy. Isn’t that a mouthful? To … Read more

Point of View: Now I “See” [Spoilers]

by
See

I just finished the final season of an amazing post-apocalyptic fantasy TV series called “See.” If you haven’t heard from it, it’s a high-concept tale that’s on Apple TV. The concept? A pandemic (yeah, I know) wiped out everyone’s ability to see. And a few hundred years later, the remaining population has learned to live without sight. Suddenly children are once again being born with the ability to see, but they are hunted and hounded as witches for the ability they were born with. I avoided watching this show for a long time because it looked a bit like “Conan … Read more
