Rust-Kicker

Appropriate for all ages
In New Drakenstad, everybody bonds with a dragon on their tenth birthday. Everybody, that is, except for members of the Rust-Kicker Clan, the only clan whose dragons died out. Years after becoming a Rust-Kicker, fifteen-year-old Albie yearns to prove his worth by joining the fire brigade, but he fails in every attempt. So he spends his days chasing fires with his best friend, Dagney, and his nights dreaming of punching his rival, Bjorn, in the face.
But everything changes when Albie makes a shocking discovery: a fully grown Rust-Kicker dragon.
With Dagney’s help, Albie must bond with his new dragon and investigate who is responsible for a series of mysterious fires that could throw New Drakenstad into chaos. But in a world that has looked down on his kind for so long, what can a lowly Rust-Kicker like Albie do to succeed—especially when the investigation starts to turn deadly?

The Blood-Fire Trilogy

Book 1: A Soul Divided

Recommended for adults
All seems lost when Olivia, princess of the space-faring Human Empire, is taken captive by a powerful new agent of the Mystic Empire. Her only chance at survival comes from the most unlikely of sources: the Mystics themselves.

Drake Ashbell will forever avoid returning to his roots as the prince of the Mystics, especially after being exiled because of his use of forbidden magic. But was it really his fault that it had ended with him murdering thousands of innocents? Technically yes. Even so, he’s satisfied with his new and nearly honorable life pirating through space. Until his pirating escapades lead him to a train car full of captive women. He is no rescuing hero but reluctantly takes on the job when things turn personal and when “personal” turns royal. Little does he know, triumphing over galactic threats will require more than confronting his tragic past with forbidden magic; it will test the limits of his soul.
