TROUBLE’S IN PARADISE.

In the small town of Crooked Neck, the townsfolk eagerly await the arrival of the galaxy’s two most notorious war criminals.

All except one.

Months ago, the town’s celebrated host, Keonaona Hoʻokano, accepted the duty of housing the dangerous pair.

But things have changed. Now that the day is here, Keonaona wants nothing to do with them.

As the deadly couple approaches his darkened estate, Keonaona spies from the shadows. His next move will set off a chain of events whose repercussions extend far beyond his doorstep.

They will turn the eyes of the galaxy to his hometown.

And they just might push Keonaona past his breaking point…

THE GUESTS OF CROOKED NECK is a moving science fantasy about grief, pride, and being seen. This standalone novel set in the Worlds of Everlush universe takes place soon after the events of STEEL CITY, VEILED KINGDOM.

Say hello to one of my most atmospheric books yet! Crooked Neck is the sequel to my flagship novel Steel City, Veiled Kingdom, but you don’t need to have read that book to understand Crooked Neck. I wrote it so anyone could enjoy it.

If you want a story that will transport you, then I think you’ll really like it.

Or if you’re one of the following, you will probably enjoy The Guests of Crooked Neck:

  • A sci-fi/fantasy fan looking for a matureish sci-fi drama full of vivid characters, intriguing culture clashes, and occasional humor in the vein of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
  • A sci-fi/fantasy fan who wants to visit a richly imagined setting inspired by upcountry Hawai’i.
  • A sci-fi/fantasy fan hungry for a substantial read: Crooked Neck is about the same length as Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
  • A sci-fi/fantasy fan who likes your stories grounded and heartfelt, but not soppy.
  • A reader who enjoys books with multiple viewpoint characters. Crooked Neck switches between three main viewpoint characters for most chapters.

Cinematic science fantasy STEEL CITY, VEILED KINGDOM finally out!

Cover for STEEL CITY, VEILED KINGDOM: THE COMPLETE EDITION - A man in a labcoat holding a rabbit on a strange device, with a monster in the background.

Bright minds hide the darkest secrets.

Jerimin Icarii’s life is in shambles. Once an ambitious young scientist, years of hardship on the streets of his homeworld have transformed him into a desperate man, willing to do anything to get his life back.

In his darkest hour, he strikes a deal with the bizarre Queen of the faerie world. Now her supernatural powers help him keep up appearances while he claws his way back into society. The longer he keeps up the charade, the closer he gets to respect, wealth, and glory. But one slipup will get him killed.

And that’s not even the dangerous part. Because the cost of the Queen’s aid is obedience to her every whim. And Jerimin never knows what she’ll make him do next…

Steel City, Veiled Kingdom is a science fantasy overflowing with intrigue, adventure, and colorful characters you’ll love (and a few you’ll love to hate). It’s the perfect story for any sci-fi/fantasy lover looking for an immersive, inventive read.
