He was a ‘Charmer,’ a healer, that some called a wizard but when he couldn’t save a child, they called him a witch.

And he burned for it… There are truths hidden within myths and legends, but not all are mired in atrocity, some are soaked in the blood of horrors. His connection to one man brought him to crossroads and regardless of the direction chosen, the destination will be the same… Chuartan’toll. His connection to a curse sees his fate shrouded in madness. But Death's connection to him, makes him a pawn in a plan, one that will bring him to darkness… unleash a darkness… upon us all.

The stories remind me of Ray Bradbury at his darkest with their ability to play on the difference between what we know might happen and what we want to happen. These are complex tales with layers below the surface enjoyment of a story well written.” Armchair Interviews
