Raise the Banner: The King’s Ranger Book 5 is out in audio!
It always seems anticlimactic when the audio comes out a month after the eBook, but let me tell you, Simon Vance is bringing some magic on this one. Every time he does another of my books, I love them all that much more! If you’re not an audio fan, it’s still worth going and giving the sample a listen. Imagine all of my words in that voice!
Ooops. Came here to share the news of my latest release and saw that it’s been a little bit since I’ve checked in. Sorry about that! I’ve been off social media as well, and people have been asking.
The good news, all is good, and I still live. I haven’t been enthused about how social media has changed over the last few years, though, and I don’t find it a very pleasant place to be anymore. If anything, the future sounds worse. Has no one at Facebook—sorry, Meta—read Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash? If they did, they got a different message from it than I did. Anyway, I’ve been quiet online because some of the platforms have gotten gross. It has nothing to do with my personal life or writing life. Those are chugging along smoothly.
Speaking of which… I’m hard at work on finishing The King’s Ranger, and on schedule to have the sixth and final book for you on March 31st, ‘22. Around that same time, I’m hoping to launch a Kickstarter for the next project, with a release date in August. Both of these projects are turning out well, so get excited!
But first, Raise the Banner: The King’s Ranger Book 5 is out now in eBook and Print! And for you audio fans, Simon Vance did the recording a few weeks back, but with the holidays we’re still dancing around getting the sound engineering and quality checks done. Don’t worry, you won’t have to wait long!
I won’t keep you ;) Go grab your copy and get reading!

Die Pflicht eines Rangers. Das verdorbene Herz eines Königs. Rebellion vergossen aus dem Blut der Familie.
Rew, der Ranger des Königs, hat eine Stelle am äußersten Rand des Reiches angenommen, um dem Morast aus Intrigen und Verrat zu entgehen, der sich im Herzen des Königreichs ausbreitet. Sein einziger Wunsch ist es, die Last, die er auf sich genommen hat, zu schultern, das Dorf Eastwatch zu beschützen und die Wildnis dahinter zu überwachen.
Als drei Jugendliche wegen eines Bagatelldiebstahls im Dorf verhaftet werden und ihn um Hilfe bitten, besteht Rews älteste Freundin darauf, dass er die Verantwortung für sie übernimmt. Durch Bande, die stärker als Stahl sind, wird Rew auf einen Pfad gezwungen, von dem er weiß, dass er zu Chaos und Tod führen wird. Durch ein Wiederaufleben von Monstern, die in früheren Zeiten beschworen wurden, Krieg zwischen der königlichen Linie und hinterhältigen Verrat, wird der Ranger des Königs kämpfen, um den Jugendlichen ein Leben zu ermöglichen, das er nie haben konnte.
Doch je weiter sie sich von der Wildnis entfernen, die er sein Zuhause nennt, desto mehr spürt Rew den magischen Sog aus dem Zentrum des Königreichs, der von ihm verlangt, zurückzukehren und sich seiner Vergangenheit und dem schrecklichen Erbe seiner Familie zu stellen. Nur er kennt das Geheimnis des Königs und die Gefahr, die es für das gesamte Reich darstellt.
The headline says it all. The Ranger’s Sorrow: The King’s Ranger Book 4 is out NOW!
And before you ask, the audio is coming soon. The legendary Simon Vance has the file, and we’re expecting a late August release.
A ranger’s duty. The rotten heart of a king. Rebellion spilled from the blood of family.
In Book 4 of the King’s Ranger series, Rew and his companions find themselves transported across the kingdom and flung into the teeth of waiting danger. There’s no time to rest as they go from one deadly circumstance to another. It’s a trap, but are they the trap’s bait or its jaws?
As the companions continue their quest against the king and the princes of Vaeldon, they discover they’re the masters of horrific power. Their strength rivals that of the greatest swordsmen and spellcasters in the kingdom’s history, but when they use that strength, the cost is weighed in lives.
The price of victory is high, and Rew and his friends carry the burden of that sorrow. Are the spoils of victory worth the tragic loss it takes to achieve them? Can Rew and his companions justify their crusade against the Mordens when the line separating them grows ever thin?
