Four Horsemen, now live!
Hi Everyone!
Hope you’ve all been doing well! It’s been some time!
I’ve got a new story I’ve been working on and posting to RR recently. We’re going to be releasing the first draft chapters here, got some extras up on Patreon. Our plan is to post all of the series here if possible and publish on our site and wide to make it as accessible as possible.
Here’s a blurb of the new story, I hope you enjoy 
Stay awesome
In a world where gods reign supreme, mortals bow in obedient reverence, and faith is unwavering, one man’s unwavering loyalty is shattered, birthing a relentless force of reckoning.
Petor, a devout Paladin, dedicated his life to aiding the helpless under the benevolent gaze of his goddess. But when a chilling revelation dawns upon him – that his own deity orchestrated the brutal massacre of his family – he faces a harrowing choice.
His swift and brutal defiance results in his soul’s banishment to the Celestial Realm for judgment.
Emerging from the abyss, Petor is reborn as Famine, one of the dread Four Horsemen, handpicked by an enigmatic interplanar trader. For gold Limos will teach him the secrets of Yasseen–his former Goddess.
Unfettered by gods, Famine is but mortal, beholden to no master. To return to his home world, he strikes a perilous deal with Limos, a devil turned trader, offering information for gold, quests, and tasks that hold the knowledge of how to slay a god.
But Famine won’t tread this desolate path alone. His companions are as ruthless as they are extraordinary:
Desari, a former assassin turned mage, turned guardian, now known as Conquest, wields arcane powers that defy nature’s very laws.
Mad Mya, the personification of Death, master of the macabre and captain of the undead, holds dominion over seas and souls alike.
Valter, imprisoned body and soul within his Sarcophagi Immortalias, a tool turned into the embodiment of War, shatters his own god-emperor’s bonds in a brutal act of defiance.
Together, they embark on a harrowing journey through realms and across planes, their choices possessing the power to reshape worlds.
Yesterday they died, today, they ride.
Progression fantasy in a party style, deep world building and backstories. Character driven (yes they really stick their foot in it sometimes), swearing, blood, violence, no sexual scenes, no harem.

THE SEVENTH REALM, PART 2 AUDIOBOOK IS HERE!
Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime because The Seventh Realm, Part 2 Audiobook is here!
Strength doesn’t come from victories. Instead, it comes from standing up after defeats, reaching out a hand and pulling others to their feet, and pushing others ahead of yourself.
Now, the Alvan’s must dig deep. They have paid a heavy price, a price felt in the hearts of every member.
They started as a small group fighting to survive in the first realm. Now, they are a nation that challenged the combined United Sect Alliance.
Instead of crumbling, they bared their teeth and fought forces from the seventh realm. They bled their enemy every step of the way.
Beaten but unbroken, the members of Alva have been tempered with elements and cultivated their mana. Now, they must test their minds and spirits- and they must cultivate their belief in one another.
There is no other path ahead of them.
Erik and Rugrat have groomed a nation from that small group. As they created the spark, it has now grown into something they realize they shouldn’t control.
Strength is knowing what one can and can’t do. It’s about putting one’s beliefs on the line and making that line in the dirt.
Beaten and broken, it’s standing together and raising up others while declaring:
For this, we’ll defend! For this, we’ll give our lives.
Get your copy today!If you’d like to be the first to know about new audiobook releases and get a sneak peek of future chapters, join my Patreon community, where I share a lot about the series and advanced copies before releasing them to the rest of my audience.

THE TWO WEEK CURSE AUDIOBOOK IS BACK!
Many of you have let us know that the Two Week Curse audiobook was down last week, and I want to let you know that it’s because we were making some changes to it.
Now, we have updated the audio files with our wonderful Narrator – Neil Hellegers!
Erik West is an ex-combat medic. He and his best friend, Marine recon sniper Jimmy ‘Rugrat’ Rodriguez, have been thrown into another world. They’ve become one of the “cursed.”
Now they have to figure out this fantasy world, where cultivation, skills, and abilities must be grown… or death awaits.
It’s not a question of if they are ready for the ten realms. Instead, are the ten realms ready for them?
For those of you who have the old files, you have a few options;
You can keep the old audio files no need to do anything else.You can request an updated version of the audiobook in the Audible application (if this doesn’t work, there’s a workaround here.)If you’re on the Patreon in the Class B (or higher) tier, you will have access to all the old audiobook files.
However, this offer is only valid until the end of February, and then I’ll be locking the old files away forever!

After battling through the Seventh Realm, Erik and Rugrat finally make it to the Eighth Realm- and find their biggest challenge yet.

But will Erik and Rugrat survive the experience? Or is this where their quest ends?
The Eighth Realm is Now Available on Amazon, so grab your copy and continue your quest into the Ten Realms today!

The 7th Realm Part 1 Audiobook is now available!
If you enjoyed the book, then get ready for the audio experience because the 7th realm, part 1 audiobook has arrived and is waiting for you on Audible!
War has come to the Willful Institute.
Alva has trained and developed weapons and tactics never seen in the ten realms for years. Now, Alva moves in the background and supports the Adventurer’s Guild.
Forged together in the dungeon, the armies of Alva are tempered in body, in mind, in mana- and are supported by Alvan traders and crafters. Therefore, it wasn’t long before they captured Vuzgal and defended it in the vicious battlefield realm.
Now Alva is going to war, their abilities and skills tested head-on. One individual is strong, but a nation that’s focused and brought together for a single goal is something that could shake the very foundations of the ten realms.
A beast stirs in the Beast Mountain Range and raises its eyes to the higher realms. It is time Erik and Rugrat stepped out of the shadows.
Packed with action, the 7th realm is an adventure you won’t forget. I can’t wait for you to read it!
Grab your copy from Audible today! Also, please remember to leave a review if you enjoyed the audiobook. It helps!
See you in the next realm!
