Blurb for The Axe of the Dwarf Lords
Second Chronicle:
Nils wishes he’d never taken the job to escort a dwarf with no name on a madcap quest for redemption. Ilesa reckons she should have asked for a bigger bounty, and Silas is beginning to think the grimoire he stole from the Academy has a sinister will of its own.
Nameless, on the other hand, is having the time of his life. After all, what more could a dwarf want than a horde of undead to splatter with his axe, a shape-shifting woman who does dwarf especially well, and a wizard who can produce ale out of thin air?
But his ever fragile mood takes a turn for the worse when he discovers a terrible secret at the bottom of the sea—an unstoppable horror that destroyed an entire race, and a mythical axe that brings back the darkest of memories from his recent past.

The Axe of the Dwarf Lords
I'm just coming to the end of the first round of edits. It's already in pretty good shape. Just two more sweeps and then proofreading to go. The cover art is nearly finished and at this rate The Axe of the Dwarf Lords should be out in another week or so.
I've also now written the synopsis for book 3, The Scout and the Serpent, and Patrick is working on the cover for that one. I'll be working on a few chapters of Shader 3 first (The Unweaving) and will then get Nameless 3 out in between editing commissions. The outlines of books 4 and 5 (which complete the Chronicles) are starting to shape up nicely too.
Once this series is complete, I'll be developing some further adventures of Nameless, possibly alongside his old buddy Shadrak the Unseen. They'll fall outside of the story arc of the Chronicles and the Shader series and will most likely be short standalone tales in the tradition of old style sword and sorcery.

The Axe of the Dwarf Lords
I seemed to be dreaming all night about a particularly horrific monster. When I woke up all the pieces of the Axe of the Dwarf Lords fell into place. The conclusion, which I'd been pondering for some time as I wrote the early stages, came sharply into focus.
This is going to be an epic ending, one that tells us more about the dwarves, Nameless, and even the homunculi (the children of the Demiurgos).
