Wrath of the Warlock Is Here

Wrath of the Warlock, Book Two of the Swordsong Series, was released on September 23, 2026, and is available now in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle.

Wrath of the Warlock belongs to Jexi, the realm’s first warlock, daughter of two worlds, bearer of powers no mortal was ever meant to hold. In the ashes of the war, her search for the family she never knew drags her back to the darkness beneath the Dark Elf kingdom, where a secret waits that could unmake her, and the realm with her.

If you are new to the series, start with Book One, Rise of the Blademaster, which I rewrote for a revised edition in 2026. Wrath of the Warlock continues directly from it.

Editions: Hardcover ISBN 978-1662980961 · Paperback ISBN 978-1662980978 · Kindle. The audiobook is coming in early 2027.

Where to buy: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones, and other booksellers.

SPOILER ALERT - If you have not completed Book 1, please do not continue to read!

For those of you that have finished Book 1 of the Swordsong Series (Rise of the Blademaster), you know that there is a bit of, shall we say, unfinished business? Probably the biggest compliment that I get is; “When does Book 2 come out?” Well here is an answer. It will partially depend on funding from Book 1 sales since that one was entirely author financed. Don’t despair though, I promise to not leave you hanging. After a much needed break, I am currently writing Book 2 with the goal to release it some time in the late winter of 2022.

Without further ado, here is a sneak peak of the ROUGH DRAFT/developmental design of the cover for Book 2 (Wrath of the Warlock)

Any Jexi fans out there?

One does not simply write an epic fantasy without a good coffee shop.
