SKALD Vol. I

The One True King of Men

2015

Maul, the One True King Of Men, was held captive for a decade, tied to the World Tree in the Elf Realm. But now, freed from his bondage, he has set out on a brutal, bloodstained journey across the sundered worlds, on a quest to return to the Realm of Men and seize what is rightfully his: The throne. Fans of classic sword & sorcery, like Robert E. Howard's Conan, as well as the more psychedelic variety, like Michael Moorcock's Elric, will feel right at home with SKALD, as will readers who find themselves craving a little more blood, guts, fire and steel in their fantasy literature. This trippy, brutal, psychedelic, nihilistic tale is not for the faint of heart. This volume contains the first 16 episodes of SKALD, the spoken word, sword & sorcery serial. These episodes, as well as subsequent ones, are available on iTunes, Stitcher and Podomatic.

SKALD Vol II

By Blood and by Fire

2015

Freed from his bondage, set loose upon the sundered worlds, Maul, the self-proclaimed One True King of Men, has his eyes set on a single goal: Regaining his throne. But the journey back to his home world is an arduous one, as Maul must contend with savage halfling cannibals, elven warpriests, a heaving, unspeakable horror and the worsening condition of his splintered, broken mind. Fans of classic sword & sorcery, like Robert E. Howard's Conan, as well as the more psychedelic variety, like Michael Moorcock's Elric, will feel right at home with SKALD, as will readers who find themselves craving a little more blood, guts, fire and steel in their fantasy literature. This trippy, brutal, psychedelic, nihilistic tale is not for the faint of heart. This volume contains the second cycle – episodes 017 through 032 – of SKALD, the spoken word, sword & sorcery serial. The original audio of these, prior and subsequent episodes are all available for free on iTunes, Stitcher and Podomatic.
