Start your adventures with Malja in this action-packed, post-apocalyptic fantasy!
In a parallel world destroyed by magic, one woman fights all odds to survive and find the answers behind her mysterious past.
Malja searches for the two magicians who stole her at birth, trained her to be a killing machine, and then tossed her away at ten. She wants to know why this happened and most importantly, who she really is.
But facing unrelenting challenges – crazed magicians, guitar-playing assassins, mutated beasts – she pushes through with a single-mindedness that may destroy all she holds dear.
Find out why Fictitious Chronicle called The Way of the Black Beast “incredible and impressive” and Workaday Reads called it “a great start to a series, and I can’t wait to see where it goes next.”
Interview with the Author
Q – So, what makes The Malja Chronicles special?
A – I’ve been a published writer for almost 20 years, and the most exciting time has been in the last few years. The doors have been blown wide open, allowing writers like me to mix and mash genre in ways that weren’t acceptable a decade ago. So, when I set out to write this series, I wanted to create something that hit upon what I like most in reading. Fantasy, science fiction, wild monsters, a kick-butt heroine, fast-paced style, all rolled into one! Basically, I didn’t let old genre conventions get in my way.
The Malja Chronicles books are a great mix of these genres and more. You won’t find the old fantasy tropes here. No, sire. You’ll find the series starts off more in the post-apocalyptic end — sort of a Xena meets Mad Max vein — and then later moves into a multiverse which really open up the possibilities!
Overall, The Malja Chronicles is meant to keep you turning the pages – and I’ve made sure there’s never a dull moment.
Q – What order should I read the books in?
A – I’ve written the series in two story arcs. Each book is a full story in itself, but if read in order, you’ll get the bigger story arc as well. In order, they are:
– The Way of the Black Beast
– The Way of the Sword and Gun
– The Way of the Brother Gods
– The Way of the Blade
– The Way of the Power
– The Way of the Soul
Q – So, why should readers give these books a try?
A – Because The Malja Chronicles is a fast, action-packed, thrill-ride adventure! Book 1 has reached the Top 10 on several lists while the series has a whole is my bestselling series.
Ultimately, readers who enjoy high action, cool magic, strange monsters, and new wonders will get a kick out of this series.
And thanks for reading!

Neo Terminus is a city on the brink. Here, in one of the last bastions of human civilization, the Conglomerate touches everything—everyone. Addicted and hypnotized, the gore-drunk masses clamor to watch The Zone, a Glom-engineered spectacle where nano-boosted gladiators called Enforcers fight to the death.
Enforcers are promised wealth and celebrity—if they survive.
Officer Chance Griffin fights to clean up the mean streets of Neo Terminus and scrape together enough money for his infant son’s vital surgery. Driven by his family’s need, Chance signs on as an Enforcer for The Glom. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime.
He rises fast through the Enforcer ranks—too fast. Then it happens: The Glom’s mysterious Founders coerce him into competing in the greatest Zone trial ever conceived. Chance is the favorite to win. He believes his family is safe, that his son will get the medical care he urgently needs.
Chance is wrong.
Too late, he uncovers a plot by The Glom to rig the trial and neurally enslave the citizens of Neo Terminus—forever. Blinded by fame and fortune and used as a pawn by the corporate machine, Chance fights back.
Can one man prevail against all odds? Or will the Glom lay waste to everything he holds dear?
In this relentless cyberpunk thriller, the gritty desperation of Judge Dread collides with the brutal spectacle of The Running Man in a neon-drenched thrill-ride you won’t soon forget.
Some fights aren’t for glory—they’re for everything.

I don’t like new people. They don’t know the rules of my town. They poke their noses in places they shouldn’t and mess things up.
That’s why when James Maddock walks into my bar, I keep my distance. He might act like a nice guy, but he spells trouble.
And that’s the last thing I need when I’ve got my life on track.
But I might not have a choice. Suddenly the tentative peace in our small town is exploding. War threatens between the gangs, and slavers and raiders lurk at our doors. To protect myself, I might have to do things I swore not to. Like trusting gang members.
Maybe even working with them.
Just so long as I don’t fall in love with them, I’ll be fine.
But the future is never certain–the world has ended once and it could end again.

The infected aren’t the only ones who should be feared.
Dr. Lucilla Castillo was never supposed to leave Sanctum Medical. Not after the outbreak turned her research lab into the last line of defense against the virus that hollowed out humanity, but when a vaccine of her creation proves to work, she is thrusted into a world far more dangerous than the flesh eating monsters outside.
Accompanied by Alejandro Ramirez, a soldier with too many scars and Luna, the dog who’s followed him through hell, Luci must journey west to the only facility left that might help mass-produce the cure. But freedom has a price, and trust is a currency no one parts with easily.
Prometheus, the institution that raised and educated her, claims to serve the greater good, but as Luci digs deeper, she begins to realize that not everything is as it seems and sometimes the greatest threats come from the very people who swore to protect you.
???????????
The Hollowed is a heart wrenching tale of love, resistance, and what it means to fight for something bigger than yourself, even after everything’s already been lost.

Professor Tikaya Komitopis isn’t a great beauty, a fearless warrior, or even someone who can walk and chew chicle at the same time, but her cryptography skills earn her wartime notoriety. When enemy marines show up at her family’s plantation, she expects the worst.
But they’re not there to kill her. They need her to decode mysterious runes, and they ask for help in the manner typical of a conquering empire: they kidnap her, threaten her family, and throw her in the brig of their fastest steamship.
Her only ally is a fellow prisoner who charms her with a passion for academics as great as her own. Together, they must decipher mind-altering alchemical artifacts, deadly poison rockets, and malevolent technological constructs, all while dodging assassination attempts from a rival power determined the expedition should fail. As if the situation weren’t treacherous enough, this new “ally” may turn out to be the last person Tikaya should trust. Those runes cloak more than mysteries, however, and he’s the only one who can help her unravel them before their secrets destroy the world.
