In the thrilling sequel to Of Shadow and Death, the mysterious Dracul Dregoth and the tenacious Evette Star return to seek each other out amongst the ashes.
Though Evette once vowed to kill the King in the West, she soon realizes that he is the only one who can free her blood-bound wolf from the chains of death. Befriending her murderous enemy is what she must do to save herself and those she loves from the fierce, supernatural storm that threatens to tear earth and sky apart. The dead have come back to life, and they are ready to seek out their long-awaited revenge. Two mirrored lands want for rulers, and the people will have what they so desire. They refuse to bow to any king. They want for a queen, one who can wield the power to restore their voices, their land, and their hope. Seven woman wish to sit upon the throne, but only two will be crowned.
Of Silence and Decay is the second book in the Shadow Of Wisdom series. No one is to be trusted. No one is safe from the monsters that lurk within. Few will survive the truth, and even fewer will find themselves amongst the saved.

Touch: Saving Ai | ✓
[Vᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ 1 - Cᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ] Evelyn White was born with a gift - or rather, a curse: the first time she touches someone, she sees when and how that person dies. Meeting new people is sickening. Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting. Trying to get close using mind games and tricks. It knows about her powers. It knows she can change Fate - and it's not alone. ------------------------------------------- This book is written in Australian English and uses British style grammar.

Deathsworn Vol. II
*** Sequel to Watty's winner 2018 *** Best read after Vol. I "Killing is the draught that must needs be drunk. Guilt is but the coin we use to pay for it." Moons have passed and wounds have healed, but the memories of Hammar are as lucid for Bard as the future is bleak. Once more the Gallowmen must venture forth armed with their wits, their weapons and their will, united in the knowledge that only through death can they purchase life. Their relationship with the Burned Priests straddles the edge of a wicked knife, and though their list may grow shorter, patience is a commodity that has run its course. Now the Gallowmen must travel as far east as one can go, to a corner of the map thats notoriety lies in it being perilously unforgiving to those who know it not. Here, death stalks the jungles, creatures of the dark hold dominion, and life is a luxury pledged only to the strong. At the edge of the world, Bard and his rogues must navigate more than mere men to get what they need. Their life is their list ... if they can survive long enough to see it through. *Deathsworn Vol II is a spin-off story from a much larger trilogy I'm currently writing for publication. Comments/reviews/feedback would be greatly appreciated wherever possible. Volume I of IV is COMPLETE ... Enjoy.Complete
From the Ashes
In a land ravaged by war and destruction, it's not uncommon to find orphans and wanderers with no set path and little knowledge of themselves. Morana is no exception. Her life has been one of inconsistency, moving from place to place every few years, always trying to keep ahead of an unknown danger. But she can't hide forever, and danger is quickly closing in. When a brutal attack leaves Morana alone and on the run, she has no choice but to search for answers, both about herself and about the Dark Lord pursuing her. Her only clue leads her to someone who may have the answers she seeks, but can she trust one who was created by her enemy? Time is running out for everyone and the end of an age approaches. Morana will either rise from the ashes or find herself in a grave beneath them. Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real and mature elements.

The Fall of Vequera
18 chapters available • the rest are available on Patreon Book one in "The Reign of The Flame" series "If she became queen, she would be the end of us all." A disinherited princess and a kingdom on the verge of ruin. The birth of twins were once a joyous occasion in Vequera but in the year 602 C.E, it was anything but. A first-born daughter with a golden eye and a second-born son. The realm feared what the daughter would be capable of. None knew of her power or what she would do in the future if she became queen, so the throne was given to the second son in hopes he would save their house from possible ruin. Over the course of her life, she was neglected by her mother for being different like the "demons of the west." She began to harden as the years passed her by and the abuse she endured intensified until one day, she snapped, killing someone. The queen sends her away in order to keep the nobles at bay but little did she know that her decision to do so would cause the fall of everything she held dear. The fall of Vequera.
