Shallow Dead: A Grimdark Fantasy Novella With Deadly Monsters And Ruthless Villains
When a man drowns in the Sunken Sea, he does not stay dead for long.
Something has stirred the restless dead, and Garagos Isle is under siege. As storms gather and the dead rise from the surf, escape grows more dangerous by the hour.
Draper cannot afford to flee. He's already been wounded coming this far, and Hektor Firstban—the slaver who promised a cure—may be his last hope. But Firstban is becoming erratic, withholding truths even as the island closes in around them.
Geir wants her payment and a way out before the dead overrun the shore. Yet every path off the island carries its own risks, and the past she’s spent years running from threatens to surface once more.
As the siege tightens and secrets come to light, Draper and Geir must decide how far they’re willing to go for survival—and what price they’re prepared to pay for redemption.
A dark fantasy tale of curses, betrayal, and desperate choices, where death is never the end—and salvation is never free.
