The trade edition of my collected stories is still available, and now is also out in a digital edition.
I am delighted to announce the publication of The River South from digital-first publisher Endeavour in Britain, and available everywhere on Amazon. The second book in the Riders Guild series, this is the story of Iset Kievesdaughter, whose mother left her in the Riders Guildhall as an infant, and whose father is unknown. She’s rebellious and impertinent, but that doesn’t explain why somebody wants her dead, although somebody does. Rescued by her mother’s old colleague Daenet Rider and Kyst, his Lord, Iset voyages with them down the broad river that runs through the middle of Cherek as she struggles to confront the mysterious talent developing within herself.
Their journey from the river deeper into Cherek, further attempts on Iset’s life, and a chance meeting with her mother’s own apprentice Pyrs Rider, lead them into danger and adventure, and lead Iset into a beginning mastery of the strange talent that has been growing within her.
This is my first novel in more years than I want to contemplate. Any review you care to post on Amazon and/or Goodreads will be very much appreciated.
