Alathea: Goddess & Empress

A dark coming-of-age tale; an imperial heiress faces a series of life lessons in the halls of power, and how she survives them will shape who she becomes. Friends, enemies, parents, teachers, myths, all play a role, but she must face a would-be usurper alone.

Prince Ewald the Brave

A bright and hopeful royal court intrigue fantasy novel where a princely heir hopes to save his family, the kingdom, and perhaps the world, from the petty and cruel tyrant on the throne without becoming like him. Should this even be possible, he will require a broad coalition of allies, tremendous effort, and considerable luck. Along the way, he also officiates the marriage of two ladies.

The Fate of Lenn

A noble tragic saga covering loss, the courage to let oneself be loved and be changed by love, the perils of being too patriotic to admit/address creeping social decay, and the people you help along the way - including three musicians pursuing a dream.

The Redemption of Jarek

Jarek slouches home from defeat, where he is scrutinized as a leader and taken to task for years of neglectful rule. As he struggles through the mandate of turning things around for his people, he can hardly feel ready for the terrible danger about to ride his way.

Their Village, Their Fortress

A deserter warns villagers and their neighbours that they have mere days to plan and implement their next steps since their defenders have scattered. A novella about community spirit versus imperial conquest; in the face of such power, the only hope for victory is a group effort.
