STEP INTO AN ADVENTURE
My Works
While enjoying a peaceful life as a painter, Aromel is confronted by a dryad named Sage in search of her lost partner, Glade. A deadly corruption is spreading across the land of Holdach in Glade's absence and despite Aromel's insistence, Sage believes he is partially responsible. The only power capable of combating the encroaching disaster is in her possession: one of six Stones of Creation, a powerful ancient relic useable by only a rare few known as imaginists. To Aromel's surprise, the Stone has chosen him as its new owner.
A world of possibilities blossoms before the painter. Anything he can imagine is at his disposal. The only limits are Aromel's own imagination. In a world delving deeper into madness and decay with every passing day, he'll need to use every bit of his sharpened creativity to survive as he helps mend a broken realm.
The unlikely duo embarks on a quest wrought with conflict. Holdach stands helpless at the hands of a corrupt imaginist while looming chaos threatens their lives at every turn. Joined by an outcast girl and a dwarven sorceress, they must answer questions of fate, love, and sacrifice for the good of the world before it's too late.
Horror is the predator that stalks us every day, and we are never more vulnerable than in that moment we're drifting between the realm of consciousness and dream. Dare you tempt fate to steal your solace, or worse? Step into the darkness where shadows churn and untold horrors await. Spine-Tingling Tales to Read before Bed is a chilling anthology ready to take you to the most sinister reaches of human experience. Within these covers lie ten stories, each more frightening than the last. Do you have the courage to face:
Untold horrors dwelling in watery depths
Familiar voices beckoning from the murk
Festering vengeance overtaking thought and reason
Eldrich horrors offering nightmarish deals
And many more...
Make sure to lock the doors, dim the lights, and pull the covers up to your chin before confronting the ghouls lurking within the deepest crevices of your mind. The terror begins now - if you dare.
