The men secured the shackles slowly, hesitantly, but Kibure did not resist; he couldn’t. Whatever otherworldly power had come over him in those moments of passion had fled his body the second he realized what he had done…

In a realm where only clerics are permitted to practice magic, Kibure’s inexplicable use of power places him in grave danger. In a twist of fate, the rogue priestess hired to strip him of his power chooses instead to help him escape. Her reasons for doing so are her own, but something worse than death awaits if they are unable to evade the Empire’s most potent wielders.

Justin Lee Anderson’s sensational epic fantasy debut was voted best self-published fantasy book of the year* and begins a tale of magic, mayhem, and a ragtag group of adventurers who just might be the key to saving their kingdom.

“Excellent – full of great characters, tense action scenes and truly surprising twists. A highly recommended read.” – James Islington

The war is over, but peace can be hell.

Demons continue to burn farmlands, violent mercenaries roam the wilds, and a plague is spreading. The country of Eidyn is on its knees.

In a society that fears and shuns him, Aranok is the first mage to be named King’s Envoy. And his latest task is to restore an exiled foreign queen to her throne.

The band of allies he assembles each have their own unique skills. But they are strangers to one another, and at every step across the ravaged land, a new threat emerges, lies are revealed, and distrust could destroy everything they are working for. Somehow, Aranok must bring his companions together and uncover the conspiracy that threatens the kingdom—before war returns to the realms again.

​”Rich in action and intrigue, this fantasy adventure is sure to please fans of David Gemmell.” – Anthony Ryan

Kurval does not want to execute the sentence, once he learns that Aelisia is innocent of the crimes of which she has been accused.

But if he lets Aelisia go free, Kurval will not only have to face the wrath of Talgat but also the fury of the dark gods who dwell upon the Plains of Shadow.

“Like all Craig Halloran books, this is a very character centric book, packed with action, intrigue and lots of twists and turns. Not quite like anything else on the market today.” – The Bookwyrm Speaks

“I’ve been looking for a fantasy series reminiscent of the Dragonlance stories of my youth, and I’ve finally found it! This first book in a much larger series has humor, the bonds of friendship, and plenty of wonder filled adventure. I knew I was going to love it when the mad hermit in the first few chapters had me in stitches! Good, clean adventure fantasy that will allow for some lengthy escapism.” Mike Thompson

They want him dead, but he won’t die.

When left for dead, an aging warrior named Venir rises again to roam the Outlands, protecting helpless denizens from a bloodthirsty magic-wielding subterranean race set on world domination. Led by two omnipotent wizards, the insidious underlings gather an invincible army of slayers called the Badoon to destroy the scourge Venir has become.

Seeking refuge in the City of Bone from a battle torn campaign, Venir’s visit is short lived after he crosses the diabolical ruling class of Royals who put a price on his head. Forced back into the hostile Outlands ruled by Jarla, a former ally turned enemy, he finds himself up against her savage brigand army that will stop at nothing to bring him down.

With enemies closing in from all directions, Venir, a rogue named Melegal, and their battle-weary companions must fight through an endless cycle of backstabbing assassins, fiendish monsters, treacherous terrain, bloody skirmishes, and waves of lies and deceit. Or see their home descend into total chaos and devastation as well as the obliteration of mankind.

The Darkslayer Series is an epic sword and sorcery slugfest adventure set in a world where the powers-that-be play with the lives of the unsuspecting inhabitants.

Fans of Frizt Leiber’s Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, David Gemmell’s Druss the Legend, the Witcher, Raymond E. Feist’s Pug the Wizard, Robert E. Howard’s Conan or R.A. Salvatore’s-Drizzt Do’ Urden, delight in The Darkslayer series. Perhaps you will as well.

The fate of the realm lies in the hands of a savage and a scoundrel…

Once a respected wizard

Finster is now a drunkard and a con man living anonymously amongst simple, easily manipulated village folk. But his self-serving cunning cannot save him when soldiers of the Magus Supremeus of the High Order burst in to drag the disreputable mage to the dreaded Red Citadel.

Finster’s captor, the new Magus, is none other than Ingrid the Insane

His former acolyte, a young woman of cold heart and ruthless ambition who has already murdered numerous magic-doers in her quest for ultimate power. The only reason Finster still lives is Ingrid’s belief that he knows the whereabouts of the Founders Stone, a magical artifact that could make her invincible.

Rendered powerless by a scarab beetle attached to his back

Finster realizes he is doomed unless he escapes and recovers the Stone before Ingrid does, and he turns to his dungeon cellmate for help. But the hulking, mute, barbarian youth he calls “Moth” is inscrutable and unpredictable. And their ultimate survival—and the survival of an entire kingdom—may require the cowardly wizard to assume a most unfamiliar and uncomfortable role: hero!
