Free fantasy books!!

 All right, so I haven't posted since Infinium came out and I figured it's high time I do so. But, I can't just post any old thing. So... how about some free fantasy books?

This is a wide ranging collection with some good books in it (a couple of mine too of course) and I added a couple to my reading pile from here, so I am sure you'll find something too.

Click on the banner picture and it'll take you straight to the collection so you can browse for a new favorite! 😀  (Or take a few new favorites, they're all free!)



Also, for those of you that love the books set on Terramyr and enjoy playing D&D 5e.... I have something special to announce.

I'm creating a Terramyr Compendium for 5e. I'm bringing the world of Terramyr to a 5e compatible TTRPG and including new races, deities, monsters, and even 8 one shot adventures all in the same book. If you like to play, then you'll love the way we're bringing Terramyr to your game table!

 9 years ago my author journey began with The Dragon's Champion. 

Today, book #10 will conclude the series. Infinium is 400+ pages of action-packed fun that I am so excited to share with you! 

If the cover art doesn't get you excited, then just check out the short blurb and then go preview the first few pages. I promise it's going to be an exciting ride!


Everything comes down to this...

As Erik hunts his foe and tries to prevent the World Seed from being contaminated, the Cosmic Council is watching for the slightest mistake.

Elsewhere, the Infinium is about to be opened. Secrets are going to be revealed, and all of Terramyr's history is going to clash. Mortals and gods will all choose sides in the final battle as the trumpets of war sound and the Four Horsemen begin their assault...

Don't miss the epic conclusion to The Dragon's Champion series!

Puppy trouble

 


So...
 
We’re babysitting MIL’s dog while she’s out of town for a couple days. The dog is old. Like Keith Richards old.
 
No really— they got him back in like 2005. Which in dog years makes him like 119. So for all I know he IS Keith Richards and this is just what he looks like when he isn’t on stage.
 
Anyway— aside from being old, and needing help not getting stuck in corners he’s pretty chill. He’s also super tiny. He’s a Coton de Tulear and before he aspired to be the world’s oldest dog he was super cute and full of life.
 
Anyway…
 
This morning I let little Keith Richards out for a walk. Of course he started howling once he perceived he was stuck on a leaf.
 
Brought him in.
 
Took my kid to the bus.
 
Forgot. The. Dog. Diaper.
 
The stench of urine hit me from the kitchen.
 
How can one small animal make so much pee?!?!
 
Thing is-- the old diaper I took off so he could go outside was already full.
 
You'd think that would mitigate things right?
 
WRONG!
 
I had Lake Superior in the laundry room with a little furry lake monster shuffling around to help ensure it covered as much ground as possible.
 
If a dog's body is 80% water, then I just mopped up 110% of Wheaton and there is now an old ghost animating dry bones and fur, sitting smugly in the little dog bed while I futilely mop the lake.

Free book!


 Hey there!


It's been a long time since I have done a give away. This year has been very busy with writing and other projects, but I still wanted to do something fun that wouldn't cost anyone money up front. As many of you know, I released Terramyr Online: A LitRPG Fantasy Adventure earlier this summer. Now, I am launching another LitRPG, but this time it's going up on Royal Road, which means you can read it for free.

One look at the cover and I am sure you'll agree it's worth checking out! :)

New book launch today on Kindle and Audible!

 

Today is the day I  finally reveal that mysterious LitRPG project! :) I am beyond excited to share Terramyr Online with you!

 


 

Terramyr Online is out today and is by far one of my favorite projects to date. If you enjoy LitRPG, then you are going to love this! 

If you are strictly an epic or sword and sorcery fantasy fan and haven't tried LitRPG before, go ahead and open up the look inside function to give the first chapter a whirl and get a feel for how this is a bit different, I think you'll fall in love with it every bit as much as I did while writing it.

This LitRPG Adventure is unlike any you've ever experienced before. Equal parts Epic Fantasy World and Indiana Jones, it has everything for lovers of the genre.

Grab your e-book copy today!

What's that? You want it in audio?

Perfect-- because not only is the audio book ready for you right now offering over 17 hours of listening pleasure, it's performed by none other than Travis Baldree!! He's performed massively fun audio books like Will Wight's Cradle series, Jeffrey L. Kohanek's The Wizardom Epic series, TurtleMe's The Beginning After the End series, and many, many more.

Audio book lovers, let's make your ears happy!

Ascension audio book is out Today!

 

Hello Terramyr fans!

I have some very exciting news!

Many of you have been asking for the audio book for The Dragons of Kendualdern. Well-- today the audiobook for Ascension (book 1 in The Dragons of Kendualdern series) is out! (The audible version even has a spiffy new cover design!)

And we didn't just get any old narrator to read for it either. Nope. We got Paul Boehmer! He's narrated Robin Hobb's Farseer trilogy, Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman's Dragonlance Chronicles, and many, many more well-loved titles.

Intrigued? Good! Then click one of the links below and go check out the sample taken from the opening chapters and see Kendualdern brought to life in Audiobook for the very first time!!

New puppy and new book!

 


Good morning Terramyr fans!

I hope this email finds you doing well. Only 20 more days until the mysterious litrpg busts onto the scene and I can finally show it to all of you. I am beyond excited. So, in an attempt to hold back my anxious desires to give everyone an early sneak peek, I am going to focus on something else that is new and fun.

Meet our new pup. Being a family that loves fantasy books, movies, and games, you might expect the floofer to be named something like Thena, Ramira Queen of Darkness, Fangs McGee, or (a personal favorite of my wife's for D&D characters) Bethilda Hornswaggle. Especially since I now have three out of five sons actively writing their own fantasy stories complete with their own outlandish names to boot, it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect a wild name complete with an origin backstory.

So... what did we name the little ball of fur?

Drum roll please....

Terramyr fans, I'm excited to introduce Mei Mei (inspired not by epic fantasy sagas, but by Ni Hao Kai Lan, which has been a favorite cartoon around here since our first-born was less than a year old).


Speaking of our first born... that's him sitting on the back steps reading to Mei Mei. He's a little older now... ;)

So, it may not be a great big book reveal, but at least sharing something cute, fluffy, and new has helped me satisfy my desire to give you all a sneak peek at something. :)

Now, back to writing. I've officially scheduled 14  "episodes" on Kindle Vella. Not sure exactly when Vella is going to launch, there are rumors it will be Prime day, and other news says it will be a couple months yet. Either way, if it launches after the 14 episodes are scheduled to launch it will just mean that all of them will be available immediately, so it should be fun. Wild Magic and Dimwater's Devotions are the main vella stories I am focusing on at the moment, with some Phinean and Jaleal mixed in for good measure :)

Also, while Son of the Dragon is certainly not new, it does have a new development as well. The omnibus version is now available in hard cover! And let me tell you, this thing is very large. Essentially it's the size of a D&D handbook, but at that size with 11 pt font it's still nearly four hundred pages long. (Keep in mind it's around 300,000 words.) It's a beast of a book, and I have to admit it looks pretty impressive on a shelf lol. The paperback is a little easier to find a shelf for it to fit on, but it's fun to be putting out hard cover editions of certain books.

Not sure how many hard covers we'll end up doing, but we will be getting paperback editions for Dimwater's Door and The Kuscan Demon this summer too so we have those ready prior to SLC FanX where I'll be showing off all sorts of fun items this year.

That's it for this week! If you haven't yet taken a moment to put up a review for the Kendualdern series, please take a moment to do so. Also, check out this week's book spotlight-- The Throne of Ice and Ash by J.D.L. Rosell -- I think a lot of you will enjoy it.
