‘The stuff of fantasy writers’ fantasies. An epic, enthralling, towering triumph.’ – AurealisXpress

The forces of shadow and light race to claim a boy with blue hair, foretold to end the war between them. As they clash, wild magic yields a terrible result, and rips the boy’s very soul in two. Each side retreats with a child, uncertain if they now possess the one capable of ending their age-old conflict, or if destiny itself has been undone.

Prophecy’s Ruin tells the tale of the boys as they grow. Bel becomes a charismatic troubled warrior, Losara an enigmatic and thoughtful mage – powerful young men, yet incomplete. As they struggle to discover the shape of their futures, inevitably each must ask the question: will he, one day, have to face himself?

Ex-god Royal has a bone to pick with the human race. In his previous form, charismatic Royal and his surly partner Moon saved the forty worlds of the Collectorate from destruction. Their reward? Desert exile to live as humans. No public gratitude.

Royal and Moon intend to leave their meager existence behind someday and recapture the old glory (random chaos), but building an interstellar criminal network requires millions of credits. Assassinating the enemies of the Collectorate’s President pays well, yet jobs are few.

Circumstance brings them to tiny Desperido, where life – and a world of secrets – plays out beneath the desert’s red dust. Royal, ever the visionary/narcissist, conjures an exciting path forward.

Join a wild ride with a healthy dose of snark. Pistols draw, rifles blast, traitors abound, conspiracies arise, wormholes open, and whiskey flows in this space western series.
