From my POV as a Muslim American, Alex Pretti is a hero. We always feared that one day, the government would target us and no one would help. But Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and thousands of protestors stood up to defend Muslims and other minorities targeted by ICE in MN. Heroes.

First Goodreads review: "I’ve read a lot of grimdark over the past 3 years and it has been ages since I’ve felt the genuine disgust I felt with some of the characters in this book, and I wouldn’t change a thing about them. My top read of the last 6 months."

These are the works of fiction and mythology that I thought deeply about while writing Death Hymns of Homara. See any of your favorites?

What the hell is this book about? It's about a murderer who hunts murderers. One day, a woman he wants to kill begins telling him stories to prolong her life, just like in Arabian Nights. Except the stories are full of biblically accurate angels and cosmic horror. It is mental.

Let's go. Death Hymns of Homara is a standalone medieval horror fantasy novel launching on Jan 27. If you like to review what you read, come get an eARC! Form closes in 2 days. You don't need to have read any other Gunmetal Gods book to enjoy it fully. forms.gle/uvytTTamHVCG...

10 days

One of the happiest days of my author career! Together with 1100 backers and a team of awesome artists, we've raised over $155,000 to bring the Elder Epoch Ultimate Edition to life! THANK YOU!!

7 hours to go until I can sleep!

The Elder Epoch Ultimate Edition Kickstarter ends in 12 hours! After this, I'll finally get a good night's rest 😅

We just unlocked all our stretch goals with 35 hours to go. Can we break that mighty $150,000 barrier?

Now that I have so much art for Elder Epoch, I thought I would try my hand at a book trailer. How'd I do?

One of the best things I get to do as an author, in this age of cynical exploitation of AI, is spend a lot of my earnings paying artists to make me truly one-of-a-kind illustrations filled with heart and soul.

The campaign ends in only 3 days! Check out all the incredible art unique to the Elder Epoch Ultimate Edition. So grateful to all the brilliant artists who worked so hard!

For those who crave what dwells beyond sanity. This is the final reveal for the Elder Epoch Ultimate Edition. Art by Andrew Maleski

In Gunmetal Gods, the shrines of the holy city of Zelthuriya were carved into the mountains by djinn. The lore is inspired by Petra, an ancient city that has always stirred my imagination. Here is the "Holy Zelthuriya" map by for the Elder Epoch Ultimate Edition!

As a horror/dark fantasy author, my greatest joy is coming up with the most dread-inducing ideas imaginable. My second greatest joy is seeing them depicted. I give you "Saint Death" by Andrew Maleski (this is one of my all time faves). 12 days to go!

Yesterday, tons of Conqueror's Blood Ultimate Editions went out by mail. Let's celebrate with an art reveal for the Elder Epoch Ultimate Edition, which launches on Oct 7. I give you "Basil the Breaker" by Andrew Maleski!

To ensure that everyone gets their copy of Conqueror's Blood before the Elder Epoch campaign starts, we're postponing the campaign to Oct 7. Oh, and Conqueror's Blood begins shipping to backers today!

We're going to emboss those eyes. Foil those teeth. Print this baby on nice, thick paper. Rashed Al-Akroka, for the third time, painted a masterpiece for the dust jacket. It's also just so thoroughly Gunmetal Gods.

When From Software want someone to paint the most awesome creatures from their worlds, they turn to Shimhaq. I turn to him, as well. I give you the front endpage of the Elder Epoch (Gunmetal Gods Book 3) Ultimate Edition. Follow the campaign at the link in the comment!

My full review of @zamakhtar.bsky.social's brain-melting Dark Drinker (Gunmetal Gods Saga #4) is up at Goodreads. This series is changing my whole perception of reality. By the time it's over, I'll be a wild-eyed madman huddled in an alley muttering gibberish. goodreads.com/review/show/...

2000 of these will be printing soon.

If you received an email from me promising a new novella called "Vows of Gold" then please know that this is not me, but an impersonator. I'm investigating.
