Hey guys,
The prologue to War Aeternus 5 is now available! We’ve had this kicking around for a while now, so we figured that it was about time we let it see the light of day. As always, remember that these are rough drafts that are subject to change and extreme editing. Any and all comments you have, please let us know!
This is the 11th book to be released by Charles, and we couldn’t be prouder.
As per usual, I’ve restricted a majority of the content from The Heroic Villain in order to comply with Amazon’s rules. I’ll leave chapter 12 up for a bit longer so that people still have a chance to read it in case they haven’t already.
I hope you enjoy the book!
Chapter 12, the final chapter of The Heroic Villain, is now available.
The Heroic Villain has been posted up until Chapter 6, which is a little less than the halfway point, and is now available for everyone to preview. These are some quick-and-dirty posts, meaning that I still have a lot of little mistakes that likely need to be cleaned up in the editing; by and large, however, they should be a fun read. If you find any glaring mistakes, feel free to make my life easier and point them out. Also, as always, please give us any and all feedback. We take everything to heart, and it has definitely led to some interesting changes in the past.
The Heroic Villain Chapter 2 is now posted!
Hello readers,
First off, let me thank everyone for the amazing feedback we’ve gotten from War Aeternus: Harbinger of Ash. Every comment and correct we receive is feedback that we take to heart. Trust me when I say that we still bring up rather specific things we learned or were told when writing The Bathrobe Knight years ago. We’re always striving to get better at what we do, and feedback is the best way to let us know what you like, what you hate, what works, and what doesn’t work. Never hesitate to throw out a comment if you have something to say.
Secondly, we’re going to deviate from our regularly-scheduled War Aeternus for just a little while. While we’re hashing out what we want to do with the fifth book in that series, Charles has started working on a new book that is operating under a working title of The Heroic Villain. I’ve intentionally kept myself in the dark so far, but from what little I know, I think this is going be a somewhat unique spin. I know we’ve discussed some pretty crunchy and pretty in-depth skill trees, so I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how this world grows. All I can tell you for certain at this point is that we’re going to see a spellcaster put his brains to work for the righteous side of villainy for a change.
Keep in mind that this is a rudimentary, preliminary attempt at the first chapter. We have a habit of going through the first chapter of our books multiple times, and sometimes the tidbits and information change drastically between when we start and when we reach something that we’re satisfied with. We nitpick every little detail and fine tune every little aspect so that we get the exact feel we’re looking for. I know we’re not there yet, but this is honestly a good first attempt.

Let us know what you think!
Cheers.
War Aeternus: Harbinger of Ash is now available on Amazon!
This marks the tenth book (holy moly) that has been released and the fourth in the War Aeternus series. How absolutely incredible!
This is it, guys, the final four chapters of the book. As of today, chapters 1-8 are no longer available due to our submission to Amazon. I can’t promise how long these last four will remain up, but I’m hoping to get everyone enough time to have a look before they disappear.
