Prophet's Doom Falling hits six figures!
Not a six-figure deal I'm afraid... But the fifth (and final) instalment of the Chronicle has passed the 100k mark, a major milestone for any author!
I hope to keep the momentum going and build on it in the new year. If all goes well, 2026 could see Prophet's Doom Falling published.

"Just What I Wanted
I’m telling you, this epic fantasy series started with a strong book one, and has gotten better each book. This was an exceptional read, continuing the strong character work, great plot lines over a variety of POVs, misdirection and" Read more of this review » |

"Shockingly Good Writing!
Some months back this novel was recommended to me by a viewer of one of my various review videos. I’d never heard of it, nor the author. A travesty! This was an incredibly good story, complex and well-written, with a richly de" Read more of this review » |

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring

“Deserves it! I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.”

“I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.”

“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisioned by the enemy, don't we consider it his duty to escape?. . .If we value the freedom of mind and soul, if we're partisans of liberty, then it's our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can!”
