Welcome! The purpose of this page is to describe my written works — both those completed and those in progress.

General

Donations page. If you like what I write, I'd appreciate a donation! Of course, you don't have to; you could read all six volumes of Beren without paying a cent. I'll never know. But I'm not some big, wealthy corporation. I'm just a working stiff, I work 9 to 5, I can only write in my spare time. So if you like my stuff, just keep in mind, the kind of praise that folds and rustles is the sweetest there is.

About me.

I'm not allowed to sell such works, and therefore offer them freely — under the usual fair use stipulations, which basically means, copy and distribute them as you wish, but please don't try to make money from something that I gave to you for nothing!

Renewal - a Tale of the Second Age.

Aresh the Scythian never meant to go to Athens. Why would he exchange the clean winds and lonely skies of the steppe for the shouts and stinks of a crowded settlement? It takes a forlorn chase of love across two oceans and through many adventures to land him at last in the fabled city. Stranded in Athens, a foreigner and an exile, Aresh has to find a way to live. There is only one thing he knows how to do: fight. Soon the Athenians are calling him Ischyros, the Tough Guy. Together with his partner Iphikrates the philosopher, Aresh launches into a crusade to expose crime and right wrongs in the mother city of the Western world — always providing there is a cut in it for him.

Aresh and Iphikrates will return in 'A Human Failing.'
