THE HARBINGER OF DOOM SAGA
(The new standard in Sword and Sorcery and Heroic Fantasy)

        The Harbinger of Doom saga centers around one Lord Angle Theta, an enigmatic warrior of unknown origins and mystical power. No mortal man is his match in battle. No sorcery can contain or confound him. No scholar or sage can outwit him. But for all his skills, he is but one of us; a man, a human, who shares our faults, our dreams, and our ambitions. He boldly strides across the land, fearless, peerless, and cloaked in mystery, all his will bent on righting such wrongs as he deems fit.
        Until the day the Gateway opened and turned the world on its head. On that fateful day, Korrgonn came and washed our dreams. And his outre realms of chaos set their unholy mark upon our world and claimed it for their own.
        Only Theta and his companions see the enemies aligning against us. Only they foresee our end coming – the end of civilization, the end of the world of man. Only they can hope to turn the tide of madness and preserve all that we hold dear.
        But no man, not even our greatest heroes, can stand against the Lords of Chaos and the dark armies of Nifleheim at their command. Fiends that infiltrate unseen within our ranks, that tear down our temples and our traditions; that devour us from within, unseen, unknown, unheralded, and unopposed until the hour grows far too late.
        Through the murk and mist that hangs before our eyes, one man only sees true. One man pierces the veil of magic that blinds us all and marks the world as it truly is, revealing secrets, secrets of Angle Theta, so horrifying as to shatter a man’s mind and call into question the very nature of good and evil.
        Join us now on our journey back to the days of high adventure.

On Writing Style
If you’re looking for an author that takes 400 or 800 pages to tell a 100 or 200 page story, as has become the norm in contemporary fantasy books, look elsewhere, as that isn’t my style. If you only like books that contain ten page descriptions of what a character looks like or that expend 10,000 consecutive words on internal exposition to explore each character’s innermost feelings about the current chapter’s love interest, please select another book. I tell a 200 page story in 200 pages; packed with action and heroic characters in the vein of Howard’s sword and sorcery stories of Solomon Kane, Kull, and Conan, and Moorcock’s eternal champion cycle. If that style of writing appeals to you, you may enjoy HOD.
