An elite race of humans have their very existence threatened by dark forces. 

Weakening year by year and numbers dwindling, everything looks bleak for the Star Borns until Astrid comes around and brings hope with her special gift; a dragon. 

Born into the world of royalty and wealth, Astrid has had an easy life. But easy and perfect are two very different things.

Griffin is just another street rat - a pest living in the slums, scraping for food when times get hard; orphaned and alone, life looks bleak until a chance encounter with Princess Astrid changes everything forever.

With a race on the brink of elimination, Astrid and Griffin set about to save her people. And with a chance at love, will Griffin be strong enough to break through Astrid's defensive walls? And can Griffin get over his insecurities and learn that love is blind to the past, present and future?

[COMPLETED] War. Sacrifice. Two inevitabilities of human nature come together once more as the human race encounters its latest Great Filter. The Covenant. A genocidal alien alliance hell-bent on the utter destruction of man-kind. A theocratic society convinced that humanity is the only thing standing in its way between eternal damnation, and ascension to godliness. As humanity quickly realizes they're outmanned, outmatched, and outgunned they call on the young and vibrant to defend their way of life. Joseph Gray. An ordinary young man living an ordinary life finds his society crumbling apart at the seams due to an ever-intensifying plague of insurrection that seems to spread faster than it can be quelled. After joining the Marines to make a difference, to bring stability to his society, he soon realizes that he's no more than a minuscule cog in a very large machine. Harvest. A major farming colony at the edge of UNSC-controlled space goes offline. Just as Gray thinks he'll coast out his short-term service in the Corps, tragedy strikes, and a new player enters the field. Now Gray must desperately juggle the responsibilities of maintaining his relationship with the girl of his dreams, raising a future family, surviving the Covenant onslaught, and most of all: Keeping his humanity. The Covenant doesn't play by the rules in their quest to exterminate humanity, and as the UNSC grows desperate, Gray's world will be rocked time and time again. ***Warning: Mature Content*** Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to Halo.

************************************************************************************** An outcast rogue must break a curse put on his fate, or die on his nineteenth birthday. To survive, he'll need the sword of a maiden, the aid of an immortal, and the power of forbidden magic that could cost him the only girl he ever loved. ************************************************************************************ *** THE JACK OF SOULS won a Silver IPPY this year! *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the PNWA Competition in Fantasy! * *** THE JACK OF SOULS won 1st place in the Southwest Writers competition! * *** A "Featured Book" on Wattpad! * *** Now a "Staff Pick" on Kickstarter! * *** Available on Amazon in paper, hardback, and ebook ! * *** My contract with Kindle Select won't allow me to post more than 3 chapters here, but... *** Sign up for my newsletter on stephenmerlino.com for alerts when it's free on Amazon! * MY INSPIRATION I wrote this out of pure love of trickster rogues; I love the wit over brawn motif -- Odysseus over Achilles, Raven over Eagle -- so I like to play with it in my stories. In JOS I set the rogue and con-artist Harric against a foil of warriors in a land threatened by magic and civil war. Whenever possible I turn familiar tropes on their heads: instead of a handsome young Lancelot, I cast a broken-down ex-champion addicted to pain-killing herbs; instead of a dashing Squire Brian, the old knight reluctantly takes an ambitious young woman as squire. Similarly, I re-imagine the standard medieval milieu by infusing aspects of two of my favorite historical periods, Elizabethan England, and The American Frontier. Both eras boast a kind of nationalistic arrogance that borders on hubris, and a magnificent spirit of resourcefulness and re-invention that is fun to play with. SERIES The Jack of Souls is first in a series. I am posting parts of the sequel here now (The Knave of Souls), to help me refine the story.

Rok Wellem is in danger. As a Lieutenant for the Los Angeles police department, every day he places himself in the line of fire and does what he must to protect the public and uphold the law. Years after the death of his wife at the hands of a common thief, he fights hard to keep the streets safe for others. But there is evil that wishes him dead, a dark entity unlike any criminal he has ever faced before. A routine day quickly turns chaotic as a high speed chase ends in a terrifying accident.

Can the lives of billions truly rest in the hands of one man; a simple police officer from Los Angeles? We are all in danger. And our lives is in his hands. In a tale of adventure, magic, love, and war, Rok's story unfolds. It is he who will determine our fate and his journey is just beginning; a journey that will take him across universes where he will learn that sometimes there is more to who we are than we could ever know.
