FEATURED BOOK OF THE MONTH

Savagespace Trilogy Omnibus

As murderous anti-life forces emerge from savagespace threatening the galaxy…

The motley crew of the starship Moon Raven – refugee humans, dwarfs, a kitsune, and a half-elf – might be the only hope against an unyielding foe.

For millennia, savagespace and its horrors were relegated to legend and myth.

Unrealspace opened the way for faster-than-light travel across the galaxy. Unlocking the secret of folding space/time promises instantaneous travel across vast distances. But this comes with a terrible price.

As the people of the universe roll the dice, will they get a critical hit or a critical fail?

This is the whole trilogy in one place, complete with bonus images from artist Rose Butcher.

Savagespace is a Science-Fiction Fantasy series blending space opera and D&D-style adventures for fans of Star Wars, Dragonlance, Firefly, and Independence Day.

Last-minute gifts and the holiday season. Photo by Tim Mossholder on Unsplash It’s very easy to go and buy gift cards. I’ve done it many, many times. The problem with gift cards is that while they’re imminently practical they’re often impersonal. That’s not to say that they can’t be amazing....
