Historical Fantasy

From the moment Lord Jester Gutter came into Mark Seaton’s life, Mark knew he’d be living amid wealth beyond his imagination. He was too young to understand the price he’d have to pay for that privilege. Now he fears he’ll never be free of the life Gutter has planned for him, until a devastating tragedy awakens his anger and inspires courage he never knew he owned.

The Lord Jester’s Legacy and The Poisoned Past twin trilogies explore a world of 18th century sailing ships, flintlock weapons, deadly conspiracies and masks that change who and what you are. If you love intrigue and adventure with a hint of magic, click on Jesters to discover more.

Sword & Sorcery

What does a barely domesticated mountain woman do in a civilized city? She takes the hard way and follows her heart.

When Billie Maiyem left her mountain village to study healing at a college, she couldn’t wait. She wanted to make a real difference to her tribe, but she also wanted to explore, and learn, and meet new people. She had no idea that Kilhellions had a nasty reputation as brutish, ignorant, uncivilized cannibals. She speaks several languages, but never realized she’d be expected to read, and to count. The best she can do is to learn how to use her healing gift as quickly as possible, ignore the whispers, and try not to punch too many people in the face.

Then a message arrives.

Your brother needs you. Hurry to Sellon.

Now she’s racing home, willing to fight past any obstacle, row across the sea, face the hellions that hunt humans during true night… She’s even willing to ask nicely.

The Kilhellion, Book One of the True Dawn series, released in September 2025, is the beginning of an epic sword and sorcery fantasy set in a world of breath-taking landscapes and dangerous beings vying for survival. Book Two, To Free the Wind, will release in 2026.
