The Murkwode Reaving
Novella | ~19,500 Words | November 2022
From the author of Aevalorn Tales comes a dark fantasy story about resisting evil and fighting for what you believe in. Shambling from the depths of the Murkwode Fens comes a tale of courage, faith, and the unyielding nature of the human spirit. Bartram Humblefoot, Paladin of the Ancients, leads a contingent of Mumling regulars to retrieve a holy artifact from a ruined temple. Regrettably, the forces of darkness have other plans. War is coming, and the artifact would lend their evil disciples a great advantage. The dead are awakened, rising from death to secure the temple. Bartram must help his soldiers survive, retain their sanity, and recover the artifact, or all is lost. The Murkwode Reaving explores duty versus desire, transformation through adversity, and the strength found in true faith. A compelling blend of dark fantasy and profound themes, fans Brandon Sanderson, Travis Baldtree, and S. L. Rowland will find this story an immersive, gritty tale of hope and unity against the darkest odds.
