Fans of the Blades of Leander fantasy series will be excited to know that Isle of the Ape, book one in the Order of the Dragon series, is now available! And if you’re not a fan I’m sure there’s a perfectly good reason for it, such as you didn’t know about it or haven’t reached it on your to-read list. What else could there be?

updated Jun 30, 2011 06:59am
Description:
Rodney has the ethics of an ice cube. Thoughtless and unconcerned about the people around him, he seeks the path of least resistance through life. This leads him to make a living preying off of innocent young woman, stealing their privacy without their knowing and selling it to the highest bidder on the Internet. Life is good, if meaningless, until the day he gets caught.
Cindy, one of his favorite victims, realizes what he’s doing and does some research on her own. She tracks him down and confronts them, then realizes along the way that something is wrong with her. Rodney’s a voyeur of industrial proportions and she has an incredible urge to explore an exhibitionist streak in her.
Teaming up leads them to discover a great many things about themselves and each other, things they never knew existed. Until one day they catch something on camera neither of them expected. Running from the scene of the crime, they don’t know if they can even dare turn to the cops. Indecision leads to hesitation and eventually the incident falls forgotten until the very people they witnessed capture Cindy and show up on Rodney’s door step demanding answers.
For every man or woman who’s been held in a position of weakness and inferiority Rodney stands as a champion. Pushed to the point where he can’t allow what’s happening to his friend to happen anymore, he does what we all hope we could do, he snaps. Embracing death as his only recourse, he risks it all to save, or avenge, the one he loves.

updated Jun 29, 2011 12:18pm
Description:
Having left the ship and crew behind, Rosh has spent years alone in the void, working for the highest bidder. Plagued by memories of his former friends, lessons learned, and loves lost the cursed warrior struggles to find a purpose for his enduring existence.
Stumbling into a plot to usurp a throne, Rosh inadvertently becomes the master of a powerful demoness. Unable to rid himself of her for fear of what she might do to the rest of the world, Rosh is forced to bring her with him and attempt to teach her the difference between right and wrong. The irony of having been on the receiving end of those same lessons himself not so long ago is not lost on him.
As the impossible happens and the demoness seeks to learn new ways to please her Master, Rosh’es inner demons prove to be no less a threat. Before the warrior is ready a new danger awaits on a battlefield he has spent his entire life avoiding.

The elves are back, and this time they have no interest in taking prisoners. Escape seems impossible until Dexter Silvercloud and his crew discovers an ancient secret long hidden by the elves.
