OF GREATER BLOOD
WHAT I AM WORKING ON:
—The Heirs of Eternity (Book III in the Chronicles of Sun & Silver).
—A horror/action series with a working title of The Rage. Kind of don’t like the title. It is about a world that has gone mad. A large percentage of the population—including animals—has been overcome with an uncontrollable rage that causes them to attack others. A young man can see the future in his dreams, but only one day ahead. This allows him to be able to survive as well as help others as they navigate through the mobs of killers.
—A science fiction horror novel called ARCADIA, that I’ve been working and reworking for 10 years.
LORDS OF THE WASTELAND (2018)
BEYOND THE ZONE (2020)
AGE OF ASHES (2021)
THE WASTELAND’S FURY (2025)
Genre: Post-Apocalyptic Fiction
It has been nearly two decades since the Event turned Earth into a nuclear wasteland. Survivors from the fallout find themselves inside the ravaged territory of Zone 404, isolated land surrounded by lethal radiation.
The 404 is home to cannibalistic mutants, scarce resources, and the majority of the living population have banded into four different factions. These factions have been fighting over land, supplies, and bad blood for eighteen years to no conclusion.
One of the few to remain neutral in all of the bloodshed is Leena Spero, a scavenger and a loner. Always following her instincts to trust no one and flee at the first sign of trouble, Leena is sucked further and further into the Faction Wars, finding that she, too, has to eventually pick a side.

BLADES OF ALAROTH: A War of Shields (2019)
BLADES OF ALAROTH: A New Age (2021)
BLADES OF ALAROTH: Kings of Regicide (2021)
Genre: Fantasy
The realm of Alaroth has seen two separate wars in the last thirty years—bloody conflicts in which the Rainecourt dynasty came out victorious. One reason for their successes was thanks to the legendary Guardian of the Crownlands, Aldin Edrich.
Years after the fighting has ended, Aldin retires to starts a family. While out fishing by a lake, he comes upon Lucan and Oaklee, a pair of wood elves whose home has been destroyed. With nowhere for the boys to go, Aldin decides to take the two in and raise them amongst his other children.
As time passes, a new war has begun—a war that will determine the fate of Alaroth. As he fears, the Rainecourts will soon come to call on Aldin to fight again. Aldin’s sons have grown into quite formidable fighters, particularly Lucan, who has a potential unlike anything Aldin has ever seen. However, Lucan feels he has no part in the coming war. Instead, he wishes to branch out and see the world, form his own group of companions, and forge his own destiny. Once the fighting finds its way to the Crownlands, Lucan finds that he cannot escape the War of Shields.

While I left off with plenty of story to tell, Blades of Alaroth has been shelved for the time being. This is mainly due to me enjoying my other fantasy series, Of Sun & Silver. Though all it would take for me to jump back into the world of Alaroth is a comment or two of someone interested. It also discouraged me once I found out that Azeroth is the main world for the World of Warcraft series. It’s not a huge deal, but it did bother me.
Lucan is one of my favorite characters I’ve written, so his return is only a matter of time. I have also written the first quarter of the 4th book, Golden Triumph, but for now, the series is on hold.

OF SUN & SILVER (2022)
Genre: Fantasy
Casimira Aldora is a vampire and a sister of the Sun & Silver, an order sworn to preserving the peace between man and vampire. She is beloved by many, feared by others, but is widely regarded as the fiercest warrior in the human lands of Kilithgar; she is also the daughter of the vampire who once waged war on the human kingdoms and lands.
30 years ago, Overlord Sculdar Aldora led his armies of vampires to the shores of Kilthgar, and the Dark Uprising began. Having a change of heart, Casimira left her father's war behind. Sculdar's forces were defeated and were forced to retreat back from which they came.
Since the end of the Uprising, there has been three decades of relative peace in Kilthgar, until one day, a village is attacked, its settlers slaughtered by a group of unknown vampires. Casimira is called upon to deal with the threat, but she soon learns that the attacks are far from random. Her journey leads her across the ocean, back home to a place where she hasn't been since quitting her father's war.
For the second time in her 134 years of existence, Casimira has to choose between her family and the very humans she has sworn to protect.
Book II— Of Greater Blood
The Bloodbound have been defeated, and Casimira Aldora has returned to Kilthgar, seeking to reunite with Abbot Aldwulf. But peace is short-lived. A ghost from her past has resurfaced, and it threatens to destroy everything she holds dear.
The coffin of Varkus Creed, a powerful overlord and rival to her father, Sculdar, has been discovered. Whispers spread like wildfire—those who seek to use his power are closing in, and with it, the chance to unleash Varkus upon the world once more.
Casimira must prevent the resurrection of this ancient enemy. With her trusted companions—Abbot Aldwulf, the ever-loyal Roland, and the cunning Prudence—Casimira must face not only the threat of Varkus’s return, but also the deadly brood of Ander DeVries, whose killers infest Kilthgar.
In a world on the brink of chaos, old enemies and new alliances collide, and the stakes have never been higher. Will Casimira save her family? Or will Varkus Creed rise again, bringing with him an empire of ruin and blood?

I am hard at work on the Sun & Silver series. Book III, The Heirs of Eternity, is about halfway through draft 1. I have plotted story for at least a fourth and fifth novel in the series. There are prequel options that constantly run through my mind.
From Book I. Though the map is always expanding and updating along with the story
