The Devil's Shadow is a 130K word Theological Dark Fantasy which pays homage to Rice's modern classic Interview with the Vampire in its frame-story construction and retells the story of "Shade" a first-century Egyptian recruited by Nephillim loyal to Lucifer to be their agent on Earth, but whom chooses his own path and plays both sides in their Angelic cold war. Shade's journey through the ages from Egypt to modern America explores themes of love, loyalty, and loss. --- Shade is a vampire, spawn of the Nephillim loyal to Lucifer, and the Devil wants him as his agent on Earth. But Shade rejects him, instead playing both sides in the Angelic cold war. In retaliation, Lucifer threatens to take that which Shade loves most. When Shade encounters two people in New York, one the very image of his late wife, it clear enough to Lucifer who Shade loves, but right or wrong, a rescue mission against the forces of Hell is the only way for Shade to protect the one he truly loves. --- Rated 'M' for drug references and mentions of drug abuse, scenes of sexuality, strong language, supernatural and vampire fantasy violence, and some gun violence. Warning: brief scenes of non-consensual sex, and references to suicide. Complete 5th draft. "Ankh" cover by @AWFrasier See Extras for alternate covers.

'A Sorcerer's Demons' is a fantasy-werewolf hybrid which answers the question "what if a mage became a werewolf?" Of course there's more awaiting us in the darkness than that as we follow Zanthos, the betrayed mage, through his whirlwind tour of the Freelands at the hands of slavers. Follow our hero as he wrests back control of his own mind from the rage-fueled insinuations of 'the beast,' and learns that facing your demons is more than just a metaphor. Updates on Thursdays and Sundays.
