In honor of the Lesser Evils Giveaway reaching 120 entries, here is the first cut scene as promised. Why isn’t this in the book: If you’ve read the sample chapter of Lesser Evils, you have seen that Farideh is suffering from some bad dreams these days.

Essentially, he gives her magic powers skimmed off the Nine Hells, in return […]
So a little less than a week ago, I started this contest to coincide with the release of my next book Brimstone Angels: Lesser Evils. I decided to tier the prizes, kind of like a kickstarter, only instead of money, you have to leave a comment. Easy-peasy. (And by the way, I am loving the sheer variety of […]

Watch for the second cutscene later this week. The first (as promised for hitting 120 is HERE. The contest runs until December 1st. If you haven’t entered […]
