Dangerously confused
Hi Guys,
Thought I'd make the grand announcement (for me anyway) that Days of Light and Shadow has finally been published.
This book has destroyed my life for the last six months. It started out as a nice, normal fantasy novel, and then grew until it was 250k and my fingers were shrinking from hitting the keys.
It is a traditional fantasy, but for once my hero isn't a wizard of any sort. He's a minor lord accompanied by his favourite jackal hound. And I tried to turn some of the other tropes around, so that at least a couple of the bad guys are elves, and the humans are the goodies.
This is the blurb:
High Lord Finell of the elves sits on the Heartwood Throne, lost in grief and rage. His sister has been brutally murdered and he dreams of revenge against those who murdered her, the savage humans. And he doesn’t care who has to suffer to make his dream a reality. Not his people. Not his own house.
Unknown to him his trusted adviser Y'aris was actually the one behind the crime. As he plays the high lord like a puppet, he secretly plots to destroy Finell and take the throne for himself, and then to launch a war of purification. He dreams of a day when the only people left in the world will be elves of the most noble blood, and he will sit as their king.
Unfortunately to make his dream come true Y’aris had to make a deal with a demon, and the demon has his own plans for the world.
Standing against them is Lord Iros of Greenlands, envoy for the human realm of Irothia, and a few other brave souls. But their dreams have become nightmares.
250,000 words. Adult themes.
And you can find it's Amazon book page here:

Please do take a looksee at it and let me know what you think. And if anyone wants to do a review, contact me and I'll arrange a gift copy.
Cheers, Greg
