If Hamrin was right, then they didn’t have a powerful battlemage camping right where they slept. Somebody who very well might kill them in their sleep or at least make a spirited go of it before trying to get a...
2023-08-20 03:21:50 +0000 UTC View PostHey everybody, James here! Some of you may or may not have noticed the role shifts recently. I'll do my best to explain. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll make sure to answer to the best of my ability. Without further ado:
After a lot of discussion and thought on the matter, it was de...

2023-08-14 01:18:18 +0000 UTC View PostJust a quick word! I'd like to apologize for being sluggish on the updates, I can firmly say that everything's squared away to the point that you'll be able to get consistent timely releases every weekend from here on out!
Without further ado, onto the chapter:
Besal flung himself to the side of the chamber as the oily tentacle cracked the stone floor where he had been.
Ralst shouted encouragement, “This is your time to shine, Khaeros!” Though she did make sure to keep her eyes closed.
“Easy for you to say!” Besal ...
2023-07-02 09:11:54 +0000 UTC View PostThis month I have been absolutely slammed with work and as a result way slower than I should have been on keeping Beastborne updated. There'll be another chapter release tomorrow for any curious, and starting in July I'll be doing updates on the weekends for Beastborne going forward. Might start ...
2023-06-29 22:11:54 +0000 UTC View PostOrrittam made a delicate cough into his tanned hand. “If I may be so bold, Hal…?” When Hal nodded at him, he continued, “I believe you could do with some rest. It takes a great deal to spar and train with one dragon, but two? I have never heard its like before.”
Over the next few days of training, Naitese was… well, not nice, but certainly more patient and understanding.
“You rely too much on Goldflame,” Naitese said, crouched next to his recumbent form a few days later.
They had been training almost non-stop...
2023-05-31 00:34:23 +0000 UTC View PostHal sailed through the air, pain blinding him for a moment. As so often seemed the case, Hal reacted purely on instinct. He Spliced eldritch essence and… did something with Goldflame to vent a massive amount of blood-red eldritch essence from his back.
Acting like a cou...
2023-05-30 06:26:15 +0000 UTC View PostHal groaned as he struggled to the surface of consciousness.
This is almost nostalgic, isn’t it, Besal? Constantly passing out, or getting knocked out, it reminds me of the… the….
The first few days he was on Aldim.
And now, with the silence scr...
2023-05-01 02:38:15 +0000 UTC View Post“Ho there! Good one, lad!” Orrittam cheered as a golden streaking comet of Dragonfire scorched the side of his face.
Hal, breathing hard and cycling Dragonfire for all he was worth, struggled to keep his knees from knocking together.
This was nothing li...
2023-04-28 05:20:18 +0000 UTC View PostBesal roared and lunged for Luda… but she was gone.
The room was… what was the opposite of pitch black? Supernova white? Besal struggled for a metaphor that fit and gave up.
Shaking his head, Besal lowered himself into a crouch and looked around for any sign of attack, though the ...

With the first Scale & Sea book just days away, Sohmer and I wanted to provide a sneak peek to anybody curious about the new Shardrune series!... 2023-02-25 04:14:36 +0000 UTC View Post
Hal jerked awake, a scream bursting from his throat. Pain lanced through his chest.
Motion caught his eye, and he lashed out with everything he had at hand, his mind still wrapped in the muzzy half-formed land of sleep. A spiraling flame shot out of his extended, thrusting arm. It spat towa...
2023-02-25 00:39:37 +0000 UTC View PostFrom here on out all books that either myself or Sohmer write, will be a part of the Shardrune Universe. Beastborne Chronicles and Pyresouls Apocalypse are already (and have been since their inception) part of the Shardrune Universe.

Some of you may have already seen this book floating around, but there hasn't been much time lately for me to tell people about it until now. So, for those of you who don't know, Sovereign Soul is the first book of the brand new Scale & Sea series that I'm co-writing with K.H. Sohmer!

“Ah-ah!” Ralst wagged a finger at him. “You agreed to do what I said without questions, remember?”
With a frown, Besal looked at ...
2023-02-24 05:13:01 +0000 UTC View Post“Surely you jest, Hal,” Orrittam said, folding his tanned arms over a broad chest. He looked powerful and steadfast despite his human form. His golden eyes, however, were worried. Thoughtful.
“Look at him!” Naitese pointed an accusing finger. “He gains unpreceden...

2023-01-03 22:04:16 +0000 UTC View PostA dream came to Hal that night, and though he struggled to remember the whole thing in the morning, one scene stood out clearly.

2022-12-30 01:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostBit later in the month than I wanted to, but here's the first Update of Book 5! Some of you might recognize sections from previous bits I had posted, but hopefully you also can see the differences and updates made as well as a more appropriate chapter break.
More to come soon!
I included this in the revamped About section of the Patreon, but I figured it'd be a good idea to touch base here and let everybody know how Updates will be working from here on out.
Originally, Beastborne chapters were done in the typical serialization fashion. Which means that every chap...

And here it is, the first cover reveal for the new book! You might notice the style is a bit different than usual, that's because I had to get a new cover artist but I think you'll agree this is a definite upgrade.
Enjoy!
