NEW Novel
STARLIGHT ON STONE WEST
by Jansen Estrup


A bold young shadow queen and her devoted
companion flee pirates, assassins and
a looming dark age. Not even the two
brave giants who vow to protect them
know what to do when they find themselves
caught between the desperate armies of
antiquity’s two greatest empires.

Across a wasteland devastated by flood, drought
and starvation, a merchant warrior leads
a small band of survivors seeking safety.
But there is none and their only
chance is to deliver the 'peace-bride' onto
the battlefield of antiquity's two greatest empires.

"... top notch! I can't wait for the next one!"

Look for Starlight On Stone SOUTH this winter,
to be followed by NORTH and
finally, CRUX

"Language matters because whoever controls the words contolls the conversation, because whoever controls the conversation controls its outcome, because whoever frames the debate has already won it; because telling the truth has become harder and harder to achieve in an America drowning in Orwellian Newspeak." Erica Jong, Seducing the Demon
