Instead of a life of comfort and prestige, the would-be mage apprentice goes on the run. Chandra has no choice but to kill for freedom and deal with the darkness that begins to burn away her mortality from within.

The hardest thing Chandra will face is not those who want to kill her, but overcoming the darkness inside her that pushes her to keep killing.

The Tatterdemon Omnibus

October 27, 2015 By Editor

In 1691 the town of Crossfall taught the witch Thessaly how to die. They beat her, they shot her, they hung her – but nothing worked.

Many more deaths followed. The Preacher Fell impaled the witch upon her very own broom but she dragged him down into the field to wait for three more centuries.

Three hundred years later Maddy Harker will murder her bullying husband Vic. She will bury him in the field as she buried her abusive father years before that. The very same field where the revenant spirit of Thessaly Cross lies waiting.

In three days Vic will rise again – a thing of dirt, bone and hatred. Men will call him the Tatterdemon. And hell – and Thessaly – will follow. $0.99 on Kindle.
