Crypt Quest #1: Rising Darkness
An artifact seeker travels the world in search of archaeological riches, on a quest for what secrets lie in the untested, grimy depths of history. On his first expedition, deep into darkness, what Reese finds at the end of a deathly Roman mystery may wrought untold, incomprehensible danger. - - - Author's notes: This is my first written series, having done comics before, and is a work-in-progress. I have worked in the television industry, shot for indie-film, and am a fan of pseudohistory in fiction, wanting to explore my take while having some fun with it. I tend to go back and edit, so what gets read may receive minor changes later. Let me know how I can improve, and if you like it I'd be more than appreciative of any comments or a 'star' at the end of each chapter. Thank you!

Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete

Echoes of the Last War
In 1978, when science and myth collide in a fierce debate, eight-year-old Mark Anderson unexpectedly discovers a mysterious jade pendant engraved with a feathered serpent and a trident in his grandmother's jewelry box. That pendant becomes the key that draws him into an unprecedented, time-spanning conflict. Mark joins forces with the obstinate scientist Dr. Evelyn Carter and the enigmatic mythologist Professor Sebastian Blackwood to form an unlikely archaeological team. They venture into the deadly jungles of Central America in search of a lost Maya temple-and dive into the dark depths of the Gulf of Mexico to uncover the sunken ruins of Atlantis. Guided by the pendant and a series of bizarre yet bone-chilling encounters, they unearth a truth that shatters everything they thought they knew: the Maya and Atlantis were not mere legends but two mighty civilizations that harnessed "spiritual energy." Their downfall was not a natural disaster but a cataclysmic war over faith and power that nearly annihilated the world. To survive, the ultimate deities of both cultures were forced to unite, sealing away the last vestiges of spiritual energy and the spark of civilization within a time-space rift, severing all contact with our realm. Now, stirred anew by Mark's pendant, the rift begins to unravel. The team must synchronize the most advanced scientific instruments with the oldest incantations to quell the rift's energy and prevent history from repeating itself. Along the way, they must confront supernatural threats, navigate ancient traps, and heal the deep divide between science and faith within their own ranks. Mark Anderson-a seemingly ordinary boy-holds the key to bridging two worlds and balancing two powers. As the "Inheritor of the Rift," his journey will unveil the ultimate secret of the gods' legacy and pen the first chapter of a new era where science and magic coexist: the Rift Epoch.

And now we were going on an expedition to find one of the most sought after treasures: the hidden treasure of the infamous pirate Blackbeard. With the three of us, plus Max Knight, my dad's new intern, we were sure we would be able to find it with the help of some clues along the way.

But there's something off about the eerie vegetation and crumbled temples. Something sinister, festering and impatient. The ancient warning texts are enough to unnerve her. Worse, the jade snake that haunts her dreams has begun to leak into the real world. For the first time, Maya has found something that she shouldn't have.
