The saga of a new mercenary company as they strive to find a beacon of light in a dark and hopeless world. Set in a quasi-historical world, clearly fantastical but with allegories to real world cultures, languages, and religions. Character-focused, with a gradually expanding cast and scope. Eventually spans multiple continents and features a cast of every race, . . .

The Broken Land is a dark epic fantasy story set in a world coming apart at the seams. Capricious magic warps beasts into strange and dangerous monsters, and Changes people into distorted caricatures of what they used to be. Peace and prosperity are the order of the day, but the past casts a long shadow, and the wounds of the . . .
Oct 9, 2013: Jhered of Kirea is a by-the-numbers swords and sorcery fantasy. In fact, the plot manages to hit such a huge number of standard plot devices that it’s hard to name them all.
