The Scroungers
A Vermin of the Old Empire Novella

ebook releases 4/27 pre-order your copy now here The Scroungers pre-order


The Lords have fallen.

It was the war to end all wars.

Violence had plagued the Fractured Kingdoms since the fall of the Old Empire.

But as the generals and the lords died in the Valley of Torglen, the folk looked beyond their allegiances. Beyond their nations.

 

The bedraggled masses that survived the battle flocked to the nearest town with hopes of a new life.

One in which their rulers remained rotting in the mud.

 

Brigge led her company of sellswords to foreign lands.

Now she seeks to lead the dispossessed into a new life.

 

Ebar was forced into duty. Conscripted by the war machine of Volgsland.

Though the war is over, his service is not.

 

A killer stalks the streets of Bright Hollow. Tortured by their past and longing for vengeance.

 

Disparate tales intertwine as the lives of the survivors collide.

Bright Hollow is a small town, brimming with newcomers.

Update 1/7/24

 It's been a while since I've updated this site. Times have been a bit hectic this past year. With 2024, though, there are a lot of plans underway. I prepare to move into a new home in the coming days and look forward to getting an office set up and plunging headlong back into my writing.

2024 will finally see the release of The Crooked Lord, book III in the Fall of Emros.

There are many more plans on line for the year, including an anthology, in the early stages, with several wonderful authors. I will make announcements for each project at the appropriate times, but the coming year will be a busy one.

In the meantime Stone & Shield and Split Paths are available in paperback and ebook at:

Until next time, cheers all,
