Creation Horror Part 2 is HERE

Part 2 released this past Friday the 13th (couldn't resist launching). Part 2 was written immediately after I sent Part 1 off to the editor. The series, or duology if you will, is now complete. Hope you dig it!

Different story structure that may feel underwhelming to some, yet the fantasy writing style is amazing to behold. This definitely sets the table for the rest of the series; but it does lack that climatic moment even though it immerses one in the Wit ...more

As another prequel to the main novel set, this one is hit-and-miss compared to The Last Wish. Some of the short stories are riveting with brilliant writing while others are somewhat disjointed and lack focus. Worth reading, but while I flew through T ...more
