Tales of the Far Wanderers, available for pre-order!
To Gunnar of the Tarn life is wandering. A half-breed with no home to return to, he has escaped the endless wars of his father’s people to drift through the vastness of a land once known as North America. Slow to trust and swift with a sword, he had resigned himself to a lonely, itinerant life. That all changes the day he meets Kamith of the Red Horse. The last of her kind, Kamith barely escapes being sacrificed and joins Gunnar in his wanderings. Together, they will try to build some sort of life in a wild and brutal world. Mad priests, crazy fertility rituals, roving slavers, land-hungry kingdoms, desperate sieges, sprawling civil wars, and deranged warriors are only a few of the challenges they’ll face. Their only reward? To survive and live another day by each other’s side.
Inspired by the sword-slinging pulp heroes of old, this story cycle tells the tales of two vagabonds spurned by the world, and forced to fight off it’s madness at every step. But they’re nothing if not tough, and find in each other much to fight for, and to live for…

New Book Coming
Wanted to let folks know, I have a new book going through the final phases of editing. This one's a military/adventure scifi based around a group of former soldiers hired to protect scientists traveling the multiverse, and the various challenges they face. Can't say much more just yet, but I'm hoping to publish sometime in Spring. Keep an eye out!

New book available for Pre-Order!
Now available for pre-order, available May 15, THE BOYS OF THE BREACH; pulse-pounding, military scifi adventure! This book follows two prematurely retired Army Special Forces soldiers. They’ve been hired to provide protection and security for scientists working at a facility that explores the multiverse, opening breaches into other universes to see what’s out there and what they can learn. But with every possible eventuality existing in one parallel universe or another, they’re bound to run into danger, and on a fairly regular basis. That’s where the soldiers come in. Leading a guard company of other former military and police veterans, they take on everything the multiverse can throw at them: Pissed-off sentient dinosaurs, alien critters who feed off body-horror, prehistoric bears with a grudge, interdimensional corsair slavers, wild west madmen bent on refighting the civil war, parallel versions of themselves who cheat at cards…even ex-wives they may or may not still be hung up on. They’re job is to face them all and bring the egg-heads home safe. The multiverse may be a dangerous place, but these are dangerous men...

Easton Keller and Breck Everett wanted nothing more than to serve their country. But when budget cuts cause them to be ‘prematurely retired’ from the Special Forces, these two warriors find themselves embarking on a new adventure. They’ve been hired to provide security for scientists working at a facility that explores the multiverse, opening breaches into other universes to see what’s out there and what they can learn. Given the infinite span of the multiverse, there are endless discoveries out their waiting for mankind to come and find them. But with every possible eventuality existing in one parallel universe or another, they’re bound to run into danger…lots of danger. That’s where the Easton and Breck come in. Leading a guard company of other former military and police veterans, they take on everything the multiverse can throw at them: Pissed-off sentient dinosaurs, alien critters who feed off body-horror, prehistoric bears with a grudge, interdimensional corsair slavers, wild west madmen bent on refighting the civil war, genius scientists who completely lack common sense, parallel versions of themselves who cheat at cards…even ex-wives they may or may not still be hung up on. Their job is to face them all and bring the egg-heads home safe, and they’re among the few who might actually be able to do it. The multiverse may be a dangerous place, but these are dangerous men…

Chaos Quarter Update! Book 5
Hey everyone. Writing to let you all know that I have finished a first draft on a new Chaos Quarter book, the fifth in the series. Think of the crew trapped and helpless on a planet ruled by a mafia-style crime syndicate, and having to find a way to get out and get home. Plenty of editing and rewrites left to do, so I can't give a date yet, but I'm hoping for some time this summer. Keep an eye out!

Coming soon...
Rex Vahl just wanted to go home, that’s it. After more than a year in the Chaos Quarter, fighting everything from intergalactic hordes to genetic supremacists, he wants nothing more then to limp back to the Free Terran Commonwealth for a well-deserved break, alongside his friends and the woman he loves. But the universe isn’t that kind. With his ship damaged from months of fighting, he finds himself caught by surprise, his vessel crippled by pirates he normally wouldn’t think twice about. Before he can react he finds half of his crew captured, and the remainder stranded on a hidden world ruled by a vicious crime syndicate. Already stretched to a breaking point, he now finds himself vastly outnumbered, and without the usual technological edge he’s grown to rely on. If he tries to fight, he faces near certain defeat. If he doesn’t, good friends will be sold into slavery. He's used to fighting for people who need the help, but now he’ll be fighting out of anger and desperation, conditions he is not at all accustomed to…

Coming Soon...
COMING SOON…
Sergucci Mardonna lives by a simple code: power. He has it, he wants to keep it, and he’ll due anything to protect it. The leader of a mafia-style crime syndicate, he rules the conquered world of Mardonna, a backwater planet hidden behind a nebula. He has things just the way he likes, one planet, with one major city, ruled with an iron first. The pacifist natives grow his food and cower under his lash. Everything you want can be found on this world: drugs, guns, women, slaves…everything. But despite having every pleasure a man could want, he’s beginning to feel empty, bored with it all. Even the capture of Lucius Baliol, a wanted fugitive with a huge bounty on his head, does little to change this. The man is at a crossroads in life, on a world where you cannot afford to show any weakness. Making it worse, his valued captive keeps warning of Terrans on his world, coming for him, and determined to cause a lot of trouble…
