Thank you, Clermont Comic Con!

Thanks to the Clermont Comic Con for having me as a guest this past Sunday. It was a lively, well-attended event with many cosplayers where everyone seemed to be having a good time, and I recommend that people check out the next one whenever it turns out to be.

THE BLACK VOLGA is now available!

THE BLACK VOLGA, my new Basil & Moebius story, is now available! I always have fun writing about these characters, and I think my enjoyment translates to the reader.
For those who haven't encountered them before, Basil and Moebius are the creations of my friend and collaborator Ryan Schifrin. They're master thieves operating in the here-and-now, but it's the here-and-now refracted through the lens of fringe science, conspiracy theory, and occultism. Thus, the stories are a bit like the Gray Mouser and Fafhrd Meet THE X-FILES.
In THE BLACK VOLGA, the two rogues are in Warsaw looking for a Soviet-era limousine from a (real-life) sinister urban legend. It's not giving away too much to say it turns out to be something you'd be safer not finding.
Here's a link to the story on Amazon:

BLACK CROWNS is out!

BLACK CROWNS, my new Black River Irregulars fantasy novel, is out. The Black River Irregulars are a quirky band of mercenaries who fight and connive their way through Privateer Press's Iron Kingdoms universe.
The Iron Kingdoms is gritty sword-and-sorcery with a steampunk overlay, and if you like my Brotherhood of the Griffon series or just heroic fantasy or steampunk in general, there's a good chance you'll like this too. Here's a link to check it out:
