2020 – The State of Play
Well it’s been a while since the grand plans I had for you last year were written up on a post somewhere on this site (you can find it here). Needless to say I did not begin writing any other series, or stand alone novels. What I did do was work through the edits on […]
James Clemens – the return
I’ve been a fan of James Clemens since I first read Wit’ch Fire back in 1998. It was freaking awesome! The entire series was a joy to read, although I was a little disappointed with how he swung things at the end (but that’s a me thing, nothing to do with him). Then he embarked […]

Exile
Obridan didn’t notice the mist lessen. He had been walking for so long. Placing one foot in front of the other was all he could do. Hunger had fled centuries ago, as had thirst. He could not recall the last night he had slept. All his efforts, all of his being, his Will, was focused […]
