Hey all, just a quick heads-up: I’ll be taking down all Book 6 content tomorrow (8/30). If you haven’t finished reading yet, I recommend downloading the PDFs now. The full book will be available again on Amazon/Kindle Unlimited starting September 1st.
2025-08-29 13:55:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
I know this probably isn’t the news you were hoping for, but unfortunately, it's necessary. With the upcoming release of Book 6 on Amazon, I just don’t have the bandwidth to finish editing it, review the audiobook, create the interior manuscript, make cover edits, and also write Book 7 at the same time (while also working a regular 9 to 5 and raising a family).
That said, I think one issue was setting the release schedule so close after Book 5 (only four months a...
2025-08-06 12:23:40 +0000 UTC View PostDucking his head, Gral’gor stepped beneath a thick support beam that braced the low ceiling of one of Integra’s winding subterranean corridors. The dwarven city was a maze of cramped halls and narrow doorways—each just barely high enough for him. As he passed, curious eyes peered out from slatted openings, vanishing with whispers behind iron-bound stone.
He moved slowly, rubbing his fingers together in thought, his gaze sweeping across every surf...
2025-07-30 19:02:01 +0000 UTC View PostJane straightened her shoulders and clenched her teeth, her eyes locked on the encampment of former human slaves gathered from across the Mandalas. Their numbers didn’t come close to matching the demons, but the group was still sizable. Makeshift camps dotted the edge of the mountains—ragged clusters of tents and lean-tos cobbled together from whatever they could find. Most of the people here were soldiers—men and women her army had encountered in ...
2025-07-30 19:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostHands on her hips, Jane hovered high above jagged peaks, scanning a desolate stretch of rocky canyons and cliffs west of the Dirthian capital, Integra. Mountains surged like frozen waves beneath her, ridges stretching to the horizon, untouched and uninhabited. No towns, no roads—just stone and silence.
As good a place as any, she decided.
Jane exhaled, then opened her System details, double checking the skill she had in mind.
Hey all, just a quick update. No new chapters today, but we will be starting Book 7 next week. I think as a rule of thumb I'm going to need to take a week to consolidate my thoughts in between books.
Feel free to reach out if you'd like any of the audio books in the meanwhile.
2025-07-23 19:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostStepping out through the small bank door, Jane emerged into the cool night air. The stars shimmered overhead, clear and bright above the vast half-domed walls. In her hand, she clutched a small pouch of gold coins—a parting withdrawal she’d made on instinct, barely aware she’d even done it.
Outside, everyone was waiting.
Gral’gor stood tall and silent. Balostroze loomed beside him, flanked by Veralaktus, Crakkis, Ixcaralith, T...
2025-07-16 19:02:01 +0000 UTC View PostThrumvalor was snoring contentedly, lost in a magnificent dream of unearthing a vein of Arcanite the size of a boulder. The colors shimmered, the crystals glittered with untapped potential, and he could almost feel the weight of wealth in his calloused hands—until the dream shattered under the persistent sound of knocking.
“What?” he groaned, tightening the blanket around his shoulders like a stubborn cocoon. The knocking didn’t stop—in fa...
2025-07-16 19:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostJane stepped cautiously into the wide plaza, her eyes sweeping across the space. It wasn’t fully enclosed, as she’d first assumed. Another road intersected the one she’d taken, cutting cleanly through the half-domed plaza at a perpendicular angle. From a distance, it appeared completely unobstructed—an open channel through the stone.
She moved toward the massive doors ahead. Towering above her, etched high into the rock, was a worn symbol—s...
2025-07-16 19:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostStanding at the edge of a vast gorge, Jane planted her hands on her hips, eyes scanning the rugged landscape that stretched before them. Jagged mountains twisted between steep valleys and sun-scorched gullies, a stark and unforgiving terrain that drew a hard line between the verdant Mandala of Beauty and the wild, desolate lands to the south. The endless fields were finally behind them—but now, in their place, lay a labyrinth of stone and shadow.<...
2025-07-09 19:02:01 +0000 UTC View Post“And then this Loremaster guy just looks me dead in the eye and says, ‘Nope, nothing I can do about it.’ Just like that.” Jane lifted her hands and wiggled her thumbs with theatrical exasperation. “So unless I somehow free every last slave on the continent within the next year, I can kiss these suckers goodbye.” She shook her head and let out a heavy sigh, the weight of it all briefly breaking through her light demeanor.
Beside her, Dyle had...
2025-07-09 19:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostMint coughed harshly, another cloud of grit rising around him as the air in the narrow tunnel vibrated with every movement. His hand trembled while channeling healing energy, the glow barely steady as it seeped into his chest. That should hold—for now. Jeric staggered past, pale and gaunt, and Mint reached out, brushing his shoulder to invoke Mending Touch on the weary boy. The only illumination came from the ghostly green of Mint’s restorativ...
2025-07-09 19:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostJane extended her arm, hesitating only for a breath. The dangling figure before her was just one more soul in the endless parade she had been tasked with judging. From one drifting cluster to the next, she moved relentlessly, delivering verdict after verdict. Human or dragonkin—she couldn’t tell, couldn’t afford to care. They all appeared as writhing silhouettes suspended in the sky, gray and featureless, their identities lost to the mist. She stepped ...
2025-07-02 19:02:01 +0000 UTC View PostNyxor’s legs trembled as he stumbled through the fog, trailing behind the relentless Cull who led them forward. The mist clung to his robes, thick as wool and cold as his blood ran. Behind him, Fascia prodded him onward with silent insistence.
“This is surely far enough, isn’t it?” he muttered, barely loud enough for her to hear. “The Courage clan commanders said the battle is already underway—if that’s true, then we’ve reached t...
2025-07-02 19:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostGral’gor moved steadily through the fog, the cool mist trailing across his smooth skin like the gentle touch of ghostly fingers. Each stride took him past rows of withered crops, their dead leaves crunching beneath his bare feet. Scattered among the furrows were the shattered forms of human soldiers, their limbs twisted in horror or disbelief. One man clutched at his own hands, frozen in shock at their shriveled state; another lay sprawled beside...
2025-07-02 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostHey all, I had some unavoidable travel this week and just wasn't able to get the chapters to a quality I'm satisfied with. Pushing the content to next week so I can get everything right.
Sorry for the delay--if you're interested, please shoot me a message for a free audio book (any from 1-5) and I'll send it your way.

Hey everyone, just a quick note: Judicator Jane 5 has just been released on Audible!
Angela Clark did the narration as usual, and everything turned out great!

The streets of Dawnskeep lay still, cloaked in uneasy silence. Shuttered windows concealed wary eyes, their gazes flickering from behind slats and curtains as Pogg strode alone down the wide central boulevard. His thoughts were a storm—tangled threads of choices, strategies, harsh truths, and the weight of consequence. Purging the wicked had brought immense experience, yes—but it was grueling, soul-sapping work. Not many left now… he mused, a ...
2025-06-18 19:02:01 +0000 UTC View PostA deep fog crept across the abandoned farmland, curling low over the empty rows like fingers searching for something lost. Jane guided her Emerald Drake forward, attempting to see through the heavy mist. The Darkwing Skimmers were faintly visible, circling in the air above and ahead, forming a wide net of aerial reconnaissance.
This should be the border of the Mandala of Honor, she thought. So where’s the southern resistance?...
2025-06-18 19:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostIn the golden haze of the rising sun, Jane strode toward the group of captured former slaves, now surrounded by a grim cordon of Hellguards and looming Tormentors. Balostroze stood at the forefront like a statue carved from solid obsidian, his dark gaze scanning the prisoners with thinly veiled contempt.
Tarik stood chief among them, shoulders squared, eyes blazing with a simmering fury. One of his arms hung limp at his side—likely brok...
2025-06-18 19:00:07 +0000 UTC View Post“There,” Valrathian said, gesturing toward a plantation where men and women labored in the fields. “One of our farms.”
Jane followed his hand, shielding her eyes from the low western sun. Unlike the slave plantations she’d seen elsewhere—those strung with towering poles and radiating ropes like a carnival tent—this land was open, the workers unshackled, moving freely among the rows.
“Reminds me of the farmers from the valley,...
2025-06-11 19:02:02 +0000 UTC View PostA cold breeze drifted in from the north, tousling Dyle’s dark hair as he moved silently through yet another vast slave plantation—this one within the Mandala of Courage. The place reeked of quiet misery. Slavery was so deeply rooted here, it hung in the air like rot, seeping into everything. He passed a tall central pillar, its ropes stretching outward like veins feeding a diseased heart. Disgust curled his lip.
Shrouded by his Vanish skill...
2025-06-11 19:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostMint dove beneath a skittering claw, heart pounding with a mix of fear and adrenaline. The dense darkness of the Great Woods swallowed everything in shadow, broken only by the flickering light of Eli’va and Nadine’s ember blades—fiery arcs that danced wildly through the black.
“Ahhh!” Jeric screamed off to his right, scrambling over the bisected body of a furry Burrcritch. Two wasp-like creatures dived after him, their foot-long stinge...
2025-06-11 19:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostWatching the duel unfold from a distant rise, Jane clicked her tongue as Balostroze finished the dragonkin champion with ruthless efficiency. That was fast. She had to admit, she’d expected more of a challenge. The dragonkin of Alur were certainly stronger than the average human—faster, tougher, higher level—but still nowhere near the caliber of the more ancient demons from the Netherrealm.
Balostroze and Gral’gor had both seen nearly a ...
2025-06-04 19:41:53 +0000 UTC View PostEyes closed, Jane barely registered the subtle sway of the palanquin beneath her. She sat cross-legged, posture rigid and precise, the black Crown of Dominance resting like a coiled serpent on her brow. Her mind wasn’t here—it was scattered across hundreds of eyes, riding the senses of demons spread across the skies. Even the slightest movement could ripple chaos through the horde. She didn’t dare move a muscle.
There. We’ve broken through, 2025-06-04 19:41:28 +0000 UTC View Post
Dyle adjusted the strap on his satchel, eyes narrowing as he studied the cave entrance perched at the top of the slope. A small house stood just outside it—if it could still be called that. The structure was in shambles: shutters missing, beams sagging, and more than a few holes in the walls. Still, this has to be the place. Tucked against a jagged ridge in the far northwestern reaches beyond the Free City of Boktcha, the remote dwell...
2025-06-04 19:40:48 +0000 UTC View PostPogg strode across the raised dais in the heart of Dawnskeep’s central plaza, his heavy steps echoing off wood and silence alike. Behind him stood over thirty criminals, dragged up from the castle’s dungeons—filthy, shackled, and blinking against the sudden exposure. In the courtyard below, hundreds more waited, delivered from every jail and prison across Arcadia, a sea of condemned souls packed shoulder to shoulder under the wary gaze of the ...
2025-05-28 19:02:01 +0000 UTC View PostStumbling over uneven ground, Ristharak nearly fell, only to feel a firm hand catch and shove him forward. His stoic warden remained silent. Around them, the full might of the demonic legions surged in grim formation. Towering figures of shadow and steel marched on either side, but none spared him even a glance. If they recognized him or his race, they gave no sign.
Still, the shame burned in his veins. He wore no mask. Anyone could see what he w...
2025-05-28 19:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostA bleak, desolate battlefield sprawled before Jane, a scarred expanse of scorched earth and cratered ground that stretched to the horizon almost reminiscent of the Netherrealm. Nothing grew here—not even the hardiest weeds—and the silence felt unnatural and oppressive. The contrast to the vibrant, fertile lands of the northern Mandalas was almost surreal. This place didn’t just feel ravaged—it felt dead.
Jane reined in her Emerald Drake, ...
2025-05-28 19:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostEli’va’s head snapped to the left. The Soul Binding had shifted—subtly, but unmistakably. It was on the move. Around her, the lively bustle of Gulfort’s streets faded into meaningless background noise. Clad in her human guise as Lady Vanesh, she gripped the wrists of both Mint and the disguised King Jeric with steel-like precision.
“What is it?” Mint asked, his voice tight with unease.
She didn’t answer. Instead, she turned sh...
