Besides my series, I have several other novels and collections of shorter fiction.
A Confederate guerrilla and a Union captain discover there’s something more dangerous in the woods than each other.
Jimmy Rawlins is a teenaged bushwhacker who leads his friends on
ambushes of Union patrols. They join infamous guerrilla leader Bloody
Bill Anderson on a raid through Missouri, but Jimmy questions his
commitment to the Cause when he discovers this madman plans to
sacrifice a Union prisoner in a hellish ritual to raise the Confederate
dead.
Richard Addison is an aging captain of a lackluster Union militia.
Depressed over his son’s death in battle, a glimpse of Jimmy changes
his life. Jimmy and his son look so much alike that Addison becomes
obsessed with saving him from Bloody Bill. Captain Addison must wreck
his reputation to win this war within a war, while Jimmy must decide
whether to betray the Confederacy to stop the evil arising in the woods
of Missouri.

This Western is unusual in that it is written from the
Apache point of view and dispels some commons myths.
Arizona 1846

My novella, The Quintessence of Absence originally appeared
in Black Gate magazine. It's a mix of swashbuckling adventure, mystery, alternate history and magic.
Can a drug-addicted sorcerer sober up long enough to save a kidnapped girl and his own Duchy?
In an alternate 18th century Germany where magic is real and paganism
never died, Lothar is in the bonds of nepenthe, a powerful drug that
gives him ecstatic visions. It has also taken his job, his friends, and
his self-respect. Now his old employer has rehired Lothar to find the
man's daughter, who is in the grip of her own addiction to nepenthe.
As Lothar digs deeper into the girl's disappearance, he uncovers a
plot that threatens the entire Duchy of Anhalt, and finds the only way
to stop it is to face his own weakness.
