New chapters will slow down a little over the coming weeks. I just inked a three-book deal with AETHON BOOKS for the Dark Lord's Last Call series, and need to prep book one for publication. The books will NOT leave Royal Road until they go live on Amazon. Dark Lord Morthisal Ebonwrath, Master of the Abyss, is moments away from losing his dark fortress and head to a hero's assault. He uses his last bit of magic to escape death—only to end up trapped in the mundane body of Vince Logan, an ordinary guy from modern-day Seattle. Stripped of his powers, Morthisal wakes up disoriented in a world full of strange contraptions, surrounded by people in white coats who think his cries for dominion over death are just signs of a "mental episode." With no dark magic, Morthisal must navigate the bewildering modern world of insurance co-pays, office cubicles, and frustratingly useless minions (otherwise known as co-workers). Between run-ins with technology and misunderstandings of modern customs, he realizes that he may be able to access some of his former powers, but at a very painful price. Dark fantasy meets corporate satire, in a story where office politics and dark sorcery clash—one baffling day at a time. This is the companion novel to the Dark Lord's Last Call series - It can be read with no knowledge of the other books This book would suck without the help of my editor Cheryl (Churl) Dyson. <--Check out her editing services.
