Undertaker
brothers fight the monsters who killed their family and uncover a
dark secret that could destroy a kingdom.
When Corran, Rigan, and their
friends became outlaw monster hunters and fled beyond the walls of
Ravenwood City, they thought they had defeated the source of the
abominations that killed so many of their friends and loved ones. But
the more successful they become at destroying the creatures, the more
they realize that greater evil is at work—larger and more
terrifying than they ever imagined.
The city-state of Ravenwood is
wealthy, powerful, and corrupt. Ambitious and ruthless leaders use
betrayal and assassination to gain their ends. Blood magic conjures
monsters to further the goals of the ruling class and stolen power
is paid for by the deaths of commoners. But now the magic extracts
too high a toll, merchant princes scheme against each other,
smugglers and pirates threaten the trade that holds the kingdom
together, and old alliances shatter. Darkhurst’s wastrel king seems
ill-suited to stop the collapse of the merchant league and the
kingdom itself.
When fanatic priests begin a
reign of terror to summon ravenous beings and cause the unmaking of
the world, Corran, Rigan, and their friends face an impossible task.
They must bind the monstrous First Being, stop the priests from
bringing about their blood-soaked reckoning, and put a king on the
throne that will end the cull forever. The price of failure is the
destruction of Darkhurst and the world itself.
Reckoning is the fast-paced,
action-packed conclusion to a monster-filled fantasy adventure with
non-stop twists and turns, loyal brothers, found family, forbidden
magic, vengeful ghosts, high-stakes intrigue, and dangerous secrets
set in a vibrantly visualized world.

Scourge
A
Darkhurst Novel Book 1
Three
undertaker brothers fight the monsters who killed their family—and
uncover a plot larger and far more dangerous than they ever imagined.
In
a city beset by monsters, three brothers must find out who is
controlling the abominations. The city-state of Ravenwood is wealthy,
powerful, and corrupt. Merchant princes and guild masters wager
fortunes to outmaneuver League rivals for the king’s favor and
advantageous trading terms. Lord Mayor Ellor Machison wields
assassins, blood witches, and forbidden magic to ensure that his
powerful patrons get what they want, no matter the cost.
Corran,
Rigan, and Kell Valmonde are guild undertakers left to run their
family’s business when guards murdered their father and monsters
killed their mother. Their grave magic enables them to help souls
pass to the After and banish vengeful spirits. Rigan’s magic is
unusually strong and enables him to hear the confessions of the dead,
the secrets that would otherwise be taken to the grave.
When
the toll exacted by monsters and brutal guards hits close to home,
and ghosts expose the hidden sins of powerful men, Corran, Rigan, and
Kell become targets in a deadly game and face a choice: obey the
guild or fight back and risk everything.
Scourge
is a fast-paced, action-packed, monster-filled fantasy adventure with
non-stop twists and turns, loyal brothers, found family, forbidden
magic, vengeful ghosts, high-stakes intrigue, and dangerous secrets
set in a vibrantly visualized world.
