Every great story needs an author.... more>>

Samuel Bragg was a fairly ordinary human. He lived in a simple home, and he did simple work. Born in a fishing village on the coast, he experienced a good life. But he wanted more. So when his chance came, he leapt for it, not knowing just how much more he was about to get. With a fallen god calling to him in his dreams, and the hint of an unnatural, dark plot forming in the distance, he soon learns that the extraordinary comes with a steep cost.

The story of the legendary traveler, the all-knowing servant of the God of Knowledge, the greatest author, cartographer, and collector of magicks; the story of Samuel Bragg, is a truly extraordinary tale. But it all starts with a normal man, in a normal home, in a normal village, with a normal job.

Note: This story is a re-write of my previous trilogy (Tome of the Body, Tome of the Mind, Tome of the Soul) and will also be available on RoyalRoad and Reddit. <<less

Do people change easily? Adam Graham didn’t think that was true. He had wore a mask all his life, and knew that much was enough. There was no hopes or dreams for him to fulfil. Only the empty life of an immortal otherworlder.... more>>

Things took a change for the worst when his otherworldly tenants brought their problems with them. Paying for gas and electricity would be the least of their worries. He was not getting paid enough to deal with their circumstances!

Would these fated meetings change the poor man?

Or will he continue his unhealthy lifestyle? <<less

Bradley is a misogynistic learning-impaired alcoholic-in-denial who wakes up after a fateful night of binge drinking. He's chained to a wall, covered in shackles, and waits anxiously for Jigsaw to tell him to eat his own leg. When this doesn't happen, he finds a key and escapes the dark, possibly erotic dungeon, only to discover that he is still completely screwed: his poor life choices have transported him through space and time, across dimensions, and to another world, full of magic, monsters, and explosions as far as the eye can see!... more>>

Will he surpass his crippling limitations to discover the true meaning of strength?

Will he unravel the mysterious tale of the Hero and the Demon Lord, and bring peace to the entire continent?

Will he navigate through legions of [hussies], [wenches], and [concubines] to find a woman worthy of calling a wife?

Who would also be willing to settle for him?

...probably not. <<less

* Tale of Tales is a High/Epic Fantasy saga based on the motifs of ancient myths, legends, and forgotten fairytales *... more>>

Senka is no hero, but you never know what is coming for you. And if that burns down your house and family, while you are left blinded by your house’s guardian snake, the outlook becomes grim. So Senka clings to her dog’s back to survive, unaware of the fateful prophecy and the great changes to come. But when a wandering warrior becomes her protector and mysterious strangers join their hounded party through a series of seemingly chance encounters, they all begin to discover that all is not as it seems.

What is pursuing her? And why? Can the strange characters gathering around her on her desperate quest save her from doom? Are they mere puppets of a young, beguiling witch guided by her own hidden motives, or are forgotten shadows rising again from the immeasurable depths of time? A tale of folk fairytales and myths, of swords and sorcery and mythical beings – a unique story of dark times and unsung heroes who may light your way.

Book one, A Strange Bunch, features leading characters of various ages. This is a fantasy with their progression happening slowly throughout the series, with occasional spikes in character power after certain encounters that may or may not be random. Although the book series is written with adult and young adult audiences in mind, it is, in the tradition of such epics as “The Lord of the Rings,” suitable for all ages. Excerpt from the scene depicted on the cover of the first book:

“Above this hellish pack and the rider at the forefront, flurried a ghastly sight – a cloud of dark, endlessly bustling bodies and wings, a swarm of creatures that, through their almost infinite number, produced that great din which had first reached the ears…”

Being overweight isn't a crime--it's just something shameful, Andrea's mother is quick to remind her. But that's to be expected in a world where technology and magic makes body goals and perfection attainable. ... more>>

*****

Andrea's mother has high hopes for a male heir to lead their household. Andrea must find a husband--and fast. Without a perfect body, however, there are few prospects. For Andrea, on the verge of being disowned, the inability to control something as simple as her weight further exemplifies her other failings. She heralds from the noble class, lovers of tech who frown upon mingling with the servant magic wielders. But with only one year to secure the title of the estate, Andrea has few options.

Opportunity arrives when a damaged magic wielder named Tanner comes to her estate looking for work. Servants of his creed wouldn't dare associate with nobles usually. Andrea's head tells her to be suspicious, but Tanner, who's easy on the eyes and built like a brick, looks like a great opportunity. He also takes interest in Andrea, something no one else does.

For the first time in Andrea's life, everything seems possible...if only she could quiet that stupid voice in her head warning this is too good to be true.

What price would you pay for perfection? <<less

Venus, the great city at the northern sea border, lay in ruins with an insignificant six hundred survivors. Crushed by the machinations of a foreign power who now seeks to invade the Centurion Kingdom they once guarded.... more>>

The Lady of that city, Rusalka, together with her husband, Alexander, has no choice but to bear the burden to raise an army and ready herself to face this threat. She will not fight alone, for the Prince of her kingdom comes bearing both arms and armies from all across the land.

What of the south, however? Now unguarded, not against any foreign power, but its own ambitious and disgruntled Lords and their council? These were men of no lesser standing than Rusalka herself, but they were far different in their purposes and the burdens they bare.

Towards that place is where Rapture, the Child of Immortals, now departs together with the nation's Princess, Lucretia, and fifty four of Venus' survivors who bid to serve as their bodyguards.

The Centurion Kingdom's ancient secrets, the entire Muspelheim Continent's too, and the very real "Gods" who exist in the background behind every nation of this world, are all about to step into the light, which seems to herald the dawn of a new age of strife. <<less

Rich land owner, Grimwald, once leisurely spending his time hunting and practicing with a sword, with nary a worry in the world, all of a sudden became riches to rags after a painful familial betrayal.
With no one there to protect him from a cruel technicality, and only able to take what he can carry from his land; he sets out with little more than clothes on his back, provisions and bitterness. His life turned into a monotony of dealing with low-lives, greedy merchants and shady characters.
Like in a mad unending loop, he resentfully struggles to find a way to make enough coin for day-by-day life.

A brief exchange occurred, after all. Grimwald questioned, and the man answered.
"The Empire's good people can sleep, because our enemies are afraid to."
"Afraid of what?" Grimwald asked, his interest now captured.
