New Horbeck story finished: The Sorcerer's Casket

I have just completed another story, a novelette really, about my mercenary hero Horbeck and his comrades in arms, Brud and Asner. The latest story is called The Sorcerer's Casket and is the sixth in their ongoing saga.

The tales so far in chronological order are:

The Unhappy Inquisitor

The Demon from Another World (Anthology of the Damned: Necromoirrium)

Lies and Treachery

The Mummified Demi-God

Dead Thieves in the Night

The Sorcerer's Casket

In total these add up to 57,200 words, which is amazing to me as I never intended to create a series of stories when I first wrote about Horbeck.

Another new sword and sorcery tale finished - Dead Thieves in the Night

I have managed to more or less put the final touches to a new 10,000 word sword and sorcery tale tentatively called Dead Thieves in the Night. It's another story in the ongoing saga of my mercenary heroes Horbeck, Brud and Asnar, who started life, for Horbeck at least, as a minor character in The Unhappy Inquisitor, before coming to their own in The Demon From Another World, Lies and Treachery, and The Mummified Demi-God, defying Fate by somehow or other staying alive, though how much longer this will last I do not know... 

So far only one of these tales has been published, The Demon From Another World in Anthology of the Damned: Necromoirrium from Treeshaker Books.
