The Wightblade Chronicles

WELCOME TO MY BOOKS

THE WIGHTBLADE CHRONICLES:

This is the collective name for the series of books set in the fantasy world of Terra Nostra. It is a planet with mythical links to Earth, passed down from the dawn of its ancientology (history). Terra Nostra is centered around Ephaleon, the Hoardlands of Dukedomberg and the Heredian Islands. The rest is mostly unexplored, though alluded to in some old mysterious maps. In chronological terms, the first book begins in 1821 MCO (Modern Cycle-of-Octaves). It is set in an approximate medieval/renaissance society, with its own unique twists and, of course, magic. Kinsfolks live alongside elves, dwarves, fairies, halflings and many others.

The story centres on a group of individuals at the Academium (University) of Ventorium in Ephaleon and their adversaries.

So, how best to describe the Chronicles of Wightblade? Epic Fantasy created by in depth world building, quirky by nature, combining magic, adventure, excitement, romance and much more besides.

THE CHANGE OF REIGNS - Book Four of the Wightblade Chronicles is the latest in the series to be released as eBook and paperback. See the Wighblade Chronicles page for details.

Hi everyone. Here we are in September! Summer solstice, Halloween on the horizon and then winter will be beckoning. I'm making my trade stall more visual and informative, as I am intending to do more book events next year. Hope you like the banner.

The The Train Demon is now fully up and running in both paperback and eBook. It is now loaded on my Other Books page in this website, with the eBook on Kindle Amazon. It was a really good feeling to get the second novel out, marking the start of the series which I so want to develop into many more books.

I have submitted the Scottish Book Trust entry for 2025, entitled 'Not Just Numbers' to the website, and am waiting to hear if it is to be included in the annual book, but that is a tough ask. I am privileged in having been selected in a previous year.

I'm also continuing to write/type up 'In Pursuit of Perfection', the 3rd DJ novel, The Threads of Destiny (Book 5 of the Wightblade Chronicles and 'The Sorrowsmile Meadows' - a contemporary/ historical supernatural novel.

A.I.M.E, my Sc-Fi Thriller based on what could happen with AI has been entered into the Page Turner Awards and the book cover has made it to their Book Cover Finals 2025. Being unexpected just made it more exciting!
