Striking Out

Prequel Short Story

Starting over is hard. Sometimes it’s the only option.

Since she was a young girl, Moneva has worked for the most powerful crime lord in the Empire. A chance encounter offers her a way out. Can she take it?

This prequel is set five years before the events of Toric’s Dagger, Book One of The Weapon Takers Saga. It develops Moneva’s storyline, and also features a couple of other characters familiar to readers of the series. Get it free when you sign up to my newsletter.

Toric’s Dagger

Book One of The Weapon Takers Saga

Toric’s Dagger is just another religious relic, until it’s stolen. Belwynn and her twin brother, Soren, volunteer to lead a team tasked with its retrieval. Drawn into a world of danger and treachery, they must rely on Soren’s magical abilities, and on the telepathic bond they share.

Now, as kingdoms and empires start to fall, the twins confront the dark forces that threaten them. They must not let the Dagger fall into the wrong hands. But when mercenaries, zealots and sorcerers are all hunting for the same weapon, who should they trust?

Bolivar’s Sword

Book Two of The Weapon Takers Saga

Bolivar’s Sword is the fabled weapon of the greatest hero of the Krykker race—and Rabigar needs it. There’s just one problem. Rabigar has been exiled from his homeland, never to return, on pain of death.

Belwynn has escaped from the clutches of Ishari. But her brother Soren, and her friends, have not been so lucky. Who will help her in a rescue attempt that seems certain to fail?

Meanwhile, the armies of Ishari are on the march, aiming to smash the resistance of the Brasingian Empire. Will the fragile coalition hold? Or will the dark forces that have been unleashed destroy their world? As war comes to Dalriya, the stakes couldn’t get any higher…

‘Wow, a fantastic read with an action packed, magical adventure and a fascinating, well written cast of characters.’ amazon.com

‘I find the authors writing style reminiscent of David Eddings; easily read and swiftly flowing. The chapters melted away while I shared the adventures of the people we were introduced to in Book One/Toric’s Dagger.’ amazon.com

 

The Jalakh Bow

Book Three of The Weapon Takers Saga

The weapon takers have bought themselves some time to complete their quest. But when their enemies return, they will find that they have become more ruthless and terrifying than ever.

In the steppe lands of the far north, Soren must seek out the bow of the Jalakh tribes. In Kalinth, Belwynn must face a mysterious evil disguised as a friend. And in the high mountains of his Krykker homeland, Rabigar must learn a bitter lesson: nowhere is safe.

The Jalakh Bow continues the action-packed series, The Weapon Takers Saga. The series concludes with Book Four, The Giants’ Spear.
