“The Beast of Saltern” is Published!

Another in the line of stories I was commissioned to write for FoxFireFiction, “The Beast of Saltern” goes in a different direction than “Seven Diamonds for Soqqith”. More suspense, less sword & sorcery action. This is very much a cat-and-mouse game between two apex predators.

You can read “The Beast of Saltern” for free over on FoxFireFiction’s website this week. Afterward, it’ll probably be behind a paywall.

Sir Owen Gibbs knows the forests of Tarith like the back of his hand. He’s faced poachers, man-eating predators, and even akor’mari. But nothing in all those years of experience has prepared him for the wickedly cunning monster stalking the coastal village of Saltern. Can Owen outwit the Beast of Saltern before it claims another victim?

Writing this story was hard, but I hope you enjoy the finished product!
