Limitless Seas, Chapter 8.

This chapter is the last of the ones I've already written, from here on out it may be a few days between chapters as I post them as their completed. In between, I throw out a few chapters of my side project, the Cat Core book. 


  

Chapter 8. 

Storm clouds began to gather to the north as the Gull Dropping continued its heading toward the nearest island. Larson would have ordered to have the sails trimmed if they had any. His ship spor...

Limitless Seas, Chapter 7

  

Chapter 7. 

“Captain, there’s something that needs your attention,” Nogreb called out as he knocked on the cabin door. Larson stowed the charts and grabbed his weapons before heading out on deck to see what was going on. 

“Bosun, report,” Larson ordered. He noticed the deck looked much less cluttered than it had before. Most of the bodies had been heaved over the side and stacks of salvaged weapons and gear were placed near the quarterdeck....

Limitless Seas, Chapter 6.

  

Chapter 6. 

“Stay your blades, who exactly are you people?” A short gnome asked as Larson approached. The merchants and his prisoners had finished off the pirates, but both sides still held their weapons up, unsure if the other side was friend or foe. 

“I’m Captain Larson and we were being held prisoner on our ship by these pirates. During the fight we freed ourselves and took back the vessel,” Larson said. 

“This is your ship,...

Chapter 5. 

“I may not live to breathe it for long, but for the first time in months, I can taste the air of freedom,” the orc said, holding out his hand to Larson who returned the orc’s firm grip. “I am Nogreb and I will follow you, Larson. Don’t think this absolves you of your debt to me for killing Maggot, that remains to be paid. I’ll check on the course of the battle above us,” Nogreb said, moving toward the hatch. Winston followed behind the...

Limitless Seas, Chapter 4.

  

Chapter 4. 

Larson was burdened with a second set of chains on his body by the time the crew were finished securing him. After they left, he tested his strength against the bonds, only to find they weren’t budging in the least. It would be some time before he was able to work them loose like he had with the first set, time he didn’t believe he had after Karth's threats. A strange bar in the corner of his vision appeared and began blinking, just above where ...

Limitless Seas, Chapter 3.

  Just a reminder that these are rough drafts of the book, much can, and likely will change before final publication. Let me know if you're enjoying the story so far. 

Chapter 3. 

The days were monotonous as the pirate vessel patrolled this area of the sea. Whispered conversations among the prisoners rumored they were at the fringe of a little used trade lane. Captain Ikar’re had to have known he was at the helm of a miserable vessel and was looking to catc...

Limitless Seas, Chapter 2.

  

Chapter 2. 

“Hey bud, wake up. I don’t want to taste the lash just because you want to sleep in. Get to it snake man,” A voice called to him as something pulled at his wrists. Larson looked down and could see that he was below decks on a ship. A dozen benches lined each side of the stench filled compartment; each bench held a decrepit pair of rowers. His hands were chained to an oar and the coarse wood left splinters behind as he gripped it.

Cognitive reaction is poor. Minimal nanobot permeation has been achieved at the injury site. Patient’s lack of response confirms the readings, he is currently unable to make decisions on his care.

Limitless Seas, Book 1: Privateer. Introduction

  


Here is a look at the first chapter of the new Limitless Seas series. It is set in the Limitless Lands world, far from where our first adventures took place. I'll be posting chapters as I create them (I have several already completed that I will post daily, after that it will likely be one or two a week). Keep in mind these are rough drafts and haven't been edited in...

Cat Core: Chapter 1

  

Chapter 1. 

“All right, buster, you better have a good explanation for what’s going on. I have half a mind to call the sheriff over right this minute,” she said, meaning to shake her cane for emphasis, but it wasn’t there, in fact, she couldn’t feel her body at all.

“Human, there is no need to fear, your transformation is under way. You will become the newest dungeon core for the world of Aerkoth. You may not realize it, but for all your life ...

Welcome!

Thank you for joining me on this journey. I will be posting special preview chapters for the current works in progress I have (I typically work on two books at one time).

To kick things off, I'd like to introduce you to a new character. Do you know that crazy cat lady that lives down the street, the one that shakes her cane at all the kids in the neighborhood? Well, her name is Florence Valentine and she's about to have a very interesting day.
