I am now 77 pages into The Darkest Hour, the fifteenth and final book of the series. This is easily one of the biggest books I’ve written – not in terms of length (at this point I don’t know how long it’ll be), but in terms of storytelling scale.

They look great – I really like the colour scheme. If you want to see it for yourself, it’s already up on the… {read more}
This week I received my author copies of The Shadow’s Heart – the final installment in the Risen Sun trilogy. It’s so cool to see all three volumes together the way they were meant to be, and the cover is a nice one, too. Here is a still life I took of the trilogy on… {read more}
Well, it’s been a while since I promised it, but I’ve finally done it: a new short prequel story has just gone up on the Short Stories page. This particular story is set a very long way back, and tells the tale of one of the first griffins ever to choose a human, as well… {read more}
