“A heroic death is not the goal. Survival is. Our survival, that of this community, and that of everything which matters most to us.”

When a calamitous new weapon fells a fortress once considered invincible, one soldier rides home to deliver the terrible news. This journey is against orders, but he insists no village is too small to be warned of what’s coming, even if he’s not sure what they can do. He delivers an impassioned call to action, daring them to try. Reconnecting with his community involves reconsidering why he left it, and what he might regret having left behind; but he soon faces scrutiny when they realize something about his appeal doesn’t add up.

Join the struggle of eclectic villagers as each decides their answer. Each confronts what’s happening however they must, journeying through their emotions and sometimes delving into their personal histories to reconcile themselves. Each resister’s specialties enrich their efforts to scrape together a victory from what’s on hand. The events to follow reveal not just how they will fight, but why.

Their truth, their skills, and their efforts enable them to resist—but even if they believe, can a hastily-prepared volunteer militia of farmers defeat a battalion of trained soldiers?

Set on proving pollution from the mill is poisoning the local town, Adelaide is making powerful enemies. And when angry mill employees stage a violent attack, Brock can’t help stepping in to save her.

Posing as a journalist, he wins her trust. Then they witness a murder that makes Brock question both his employer and his moral compass…and sends them running for their lives.

When the woman he’s falling for learns he’s been lying to her all along, Brock finds himself in a position he never imagined. Will doing his job cost him his integrity and his heart? Or will they both pay the ultimate price for crossing a master manipulator?

The Black River Chronicles: Level One

You know these characters—the ranger, the fighter, the wizard, the rogue. But how did they become those heroes?

Three months into his studies at Black River Academy of Swordcraft and Spellcraft, Durren Flintrand is stunned to learn he’ll be assigned to a party. It’s his only shot at advancing beyond level one, but there’s a catch: Durren has a secret that could hold him back, and his teammates have serious problems of their own.

• Areinelimus, a wizard, fears her own magic.
• Tia, the rogue, can barely tolerate anyone.
• Hule, the warrior, well… let’s just say he’s not the sharpest sword in the armory.

When your most competent party member is a floating, disembodied eyeball, you know teamwork won’t be easy. To survive Black River Academy, they’ll have to learn to tolerate each other—and outwit angry rat people, dark sorcerers, and a homicidal unicorn or two.

But as ancient forces stir, Durren and his ragtag companions are about to face dangers no level one adventurers should ever encounter…
