#1
Blood of a Fallen God
2019
Generations ago, the Godsfall devastated the land of Palnor. The two Gods of Humanity, Amder and Valnijz, perished in battle with each other. When William Reis breaks an ancient taboo to fulfill a dream of generations, he shatters the peace that the land enjoys. William finds himself facing an impossible task, can one man bring a God back to life? If he succeeds, his triumph will not only protect the land, but will save the life of his only family. If he fails, Armageddon. But how can he hope to subdue his enemies, when some claim to follow the very same God he works to return? A corrupted faith, blood tainted monsters, and a near immortal High Priest are only part of what he faces. He has only one way to vanquish those who stand against him, to become a figure out of legend, to become a Forgemaster.
#2
The Anvil of Souls
2020
Visit the world of Alos once more and learn an ancient secret… After managing to do what everyone told him was impossible, William had been named Forgemaster, the chosen of Amder. The cost was high, too high for William to take, the Reach razed to the ground, friends lost, and his only family dead. Discovering that there was a chance that Duncan yet lives, William makes a choice to track him down, regardless of the danger. Not everything is as it seems, a fact that William will learn the hard way. For in his companions something stirs, and at the moment he can finally find peace, will he be betrayed? A horrible truth will reshape everything that William and his friends believe to be true.
#3
A City in Blue
2021
Danger, action and magic come together to bring an epic conclusion to the Forgemaster Cycle. The unthinkable has happened. Everything that William Reis had worked so hard for, undone by one of his closest friends. Amder was gone, Duncan was gone, and even Regin was gone. Thrust into a strange City where magic and machinery come together in wonders undreamed of, Will soon finds himself once again doing the one thing he hates, being important. Myriam is torn. She made a choice, and now finds her life in tatters because of it. Regin is dead, and William hates her. Betrayed, she ends up in the hands of those of a less than savory reputation, and must join them, or die. But evil lives in this city, an evil that Will and Myriam know well. The evil of those in love with power, and what they will do to keep it. But out there, beyond the walls that everyone things can never fall, something else stirs. The Unnamed God is coming and will never stop until he get’s what he wants.
