I’ll split this post into two sections noted in the title. Reasons for my hiatus: It has been a while since I last posted on this blog, I know. There’s no denying it. But I have my reasons, and good ones too. Just to give a brief update, in early November my horrifyingly long job […]
Dust of Dreams (Malazan Book of the Fallen #9), by Steven Erikson 3 out of 5 (Liked It) On the Letherii continent the exiled Malazan army commanded by Adjunct Tavore begins its march into the eastern Wastelands, to fight for an unknown cause against an enemy it has never seen.

Sandworms of Dune by Brian Herbert & Kevin J. Anderson 2 out of 5 (It was ok) Based directly on Frank Herbert’s final outline, which lay hidden in two safe-deposit boxes for a decade, Sandworms of Dune will answer the urgent questions Dune fans have been debating for two decades: the origin of the Honored Matres, the tantalizing future of the […]

Hello to all followers of this blog! I hope you have been doing well. I haven’t been posting too much lately, and that is because I have been quite busy the past few weeks. The blogging, even the writing in general for my various projects, has had to take a back seat to other things […]
Toll the Hounds (Malazan Book of the Fallen #8), by Steven Erikson 3 out of 5 (Liked It) It is said that Hood waits at the end of every plot, every scheme, each grandiose ambition. But this time it is different: this time the Lord of Death is there at the beginning… Darujhistan swelters in the […]
Hunters of Dune by Brian Herbert & Kevin J. Anderson 2 out of 5 (It was ok) At the end of Chapterhouse: Dune—Frank Herbert‘s final novel–a ship carrying the ghola of Duncan Idaho, Sheeana, and a crew of various refugees escapes into the uncharted galaxy, fleeing from the monstrous Honored Matres, dark counterparts to the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood.

I mentioned at the end of my most recent book review that I would be having a go at having two books ‘in progress’ as opposed to the traditional one at a time. I decided to give it a try because I found myself in a less than ideal situation in my regular reading experiences […]
I’ve been searching for a new job since just before the summer, and it has been a terrible experience to say the least. Applying to a few hundred places in a dry economy only to hear back from a handful is nobody’s idea of fun. I’m not stressing out or anything since I’ve never been […]
Reaper’s Gale (Malazan Book of the Fallen #7), by Steven Erikson 5 out of 5 (Loved It) The Letherii Empire is in turmoil. Rhulad Sengar, the Emperor of a Thousand Deaths, spirals into madness, while the Errant, once a farseeing god, appears suddenly blind to the future. Driven by the corruption and self-interest, the empire edges […]
Originally posted here: Episode 1. New episodes will be released there, a few days before they are put on this site. Here is the début “episode” (pilot?) of Stone Brigands, the main story of Sesho. New episodes will hopefully be released a few times a month. It’s all in good fun. Generally, each episode will be […]
The Lands of Unitus website is up and running! Just take a moment to look at that beauty of a logo (I can’t take credit for it). I have a new story that I will be posting on Unitus as part of a fantasy collaboration. Episode 1 is nearly complete and almost ready for posting. […]
Part three. Here’s part 1 & part 2. This section of the chapter needs the most work for when I come back to it after the first draft is completed. Thanks for reading! Chapter 21 (first draft) Islos Part 3 of 3 (continued) Cirrus was resting in the shade of the ship’s sails, resting and watching as […]
Part two! Here was part 1. Again, this is Cirrus (the Soldier POV), having just started his practice match with the Aquari 5th Lieutenant, Arturus Mariner. I’m hoping even though it is just the first draft, that I was able to give somewhat of a clear visualization of how the characters were moving. Thanks for reading! […]
The collaborative fantasy world I have mentioned during the past couple of weeks finally has a site! Be sure to check it out for great stories, unique creatures, and a variety of writing styles between myself and some wonderful writers. I will be writing for the place known as Sesho.
