Extra bonus chapter release to celebrate my book release. Yay!

I'm super excited to share the release of Silver Fox book 8: Warrior's Awakening. As many of you know, it's been a definite adventure dealing with all the publishing challenges, this time around. (A big part of why I launched Patreon.) But we did it! Book 8 (clocking in at a mighty 370,000+ words) is finally out there, looking nice and shiny with what I hope you'll ag...

Fortunately, the otherwise blinding Mist did nothing to detract from the internal map in his head. Or the brilliant warm glow of the handful of roaring soldiers calling out into the night, cries of witch and righteous persecution having slowly become the desperate call of people trying to find themselves in the mist… and somehow failing miserably.
Stumbling soldiers covered in plate, using polearms as walking sticks...

Much to Eric’s surprise, Oliver merely smiled. “You’re right, they are indeed coming, and I have no doubt at all that they would happily see us all burn upon the pyre. Every last man, woman, and child among us.”

Eric soon found himself under an overcast sky, taking sweet breaths of air that tasted of smoke, horse dung, and freedom, his sword cane once more in hand. All in all, he thought it a miracle that it was even back in his possession, that it hadn’t been stolen or at least unsheathed, revealing a surprise that would have led to extremely uncomfortable questions and had been a source of low key anxiety since they were first ...

Agdelina gave the frightened serving girl a sympathetic smile. “Best you make yourself scarce, but first open the front door, child. You mean nothing to our unexpected guests. Only when our Inquisitive friends have already carted us off, will the town guard come by to bother with you. So best you be sorting inventory in the backrooms of your paw’s shop alongside your brothers, by then.”

The remainder of their trip to town was surprisingly quiet. Eric’s oddly manic euphoria; a combination of post battle high and triumph over insanely perilous odds while unlocking skills he had feared lost to him had all been replaced by an odd sense of melancholy.

"Agda!" Ivan desperately cried.
But Eric was already moving, yanking Agda back so that neither she nor her bundled baby were struck by the careening cart as it bounced through the fields, carefully packed crates and burlap sacks flying off into the thick grass before the cart toppled over in a heap of shattered lumber, crushed goods, and a squealing, shrieking draft horse whose squeals were brutally cut off as shadowy shapes tore ...

Eric stiffened when a certain cold-eyed man glared his way with his rifle in his lap, freezing him to stillness as he took in the stretched leather recliner cleverly put together with hardwood and animal hide.

Eric jerked a nod. “It is, sir.”
The man frowned. ...

His eyes squeezed tightly shut as Agda’s cry for her child touched his heart, the joy in her sob making it almost worth the pain.
Even as he shuddered and squeezed down agonized tears, ...
