Campfire in the Dark

Admin/ February 9, 2016/ Rants

Magic System in the Search for Eden

Admin/ April 9, 2015/ Books

  Every so often I actually do a blog post about my novels.  This is one such post.   I pride myself on the functional magic systems I create in my works.  Within the universes, I tend to have characters that exist solely to understand these complex systems and make a science out of them.  The Search For Eden is
