The Dark Blade Kickstarter is Live and There's an Early Backer Special!

 


The Kickstarter for The Dark Blade Trilogy is now LIVE!


And, amazingly enough, as I prepared this post only two hours into the campaign, it had already reached 90% funding! I am doing celebratory dances around my house, thanking God, and generally feeling blown over in amazement.

Thank you, if you backed this already! If you haven't, here's more about it.

This is something I’ve been building toward for months— refining the books, updating the covers, and preparing a way to bring the full trilogy together in a deeper, more complete form.

The Story of The Dark Blade Trilogy

Dan Torren was born into power and into a legacy stained by compromise. When he uncovers his family’s ties to the Red Hand, a trafficking network tightening its grip on the kingdom, he walks away from privilege and joins the Watch Guard.

Beside him stand Prince Alex, a royal heir sent to learn discipline, and Farrald, a merchant’s son torn between duty and calling.

But escape is an illusion.

An ancient blade begins to call to Dan. It does not answer strength. It answers emotion. Anger sharpens it. Grief feeds it. Justice tempts it toward vengeance.

As political alliances fracture, dark sorcery stirs, and rival factions move to claim the weapon for themselves, Dan must decide what kind of man he will become.

Across three escalating volumes — Forged, Unbroken, Unchained — The Dark Blade Trilogy follows a warrior who refuses corruption… and must instead confront it or be consumed by it.

Epic fantasy of brotherhood, betrayal, and redemption forged in fire.

If you're ready to enter the World of Aramatir, there's an early backer reward tier open to a limited number of people for the first 24 hours.
