The Duology
The Hollow Tempest
The Stormbinder Saga — Series Description (Final)
The Stormbinder Saga follows the Stormbinders — Warrick, Cassie, Gill, and the coven — a lineage bound to storms, ether, and the Tear, the mysterious force that shapes their world’s magic. On the ridge where seasons carry power and the sky speaks in patterns, they protect the cycle that holds their valley together. But as the Tear begins to stir, spells shift, memories awaken, and ancient truths rise from the ether.
Across four books, the Stormbinders face unraveling storms, severed loyalties, and revelations older than the Weave itself. Friendships strain, destinies collide, and each season forces them to confront who they are — and who they may become — as the Tear moves toward a threshold no Stormbinder has ever crossed.
A sweeping, atmospheric fantasy of storms, prophecy, and the people who must decide whether to preserve the old magic or step into what is awakening.

Book I:
The Unraveling Sky
Book I of The Stormbinder Saga
To survive the storm, they must become the lightning rod.
Warrick didn't ask for a legacy of shadows. He was content living a quiet life on the edge of the county, but the ancient bloodline running through his veins doesn't care about his plans. When a sentient, predatory storm system blankets the land, the air pressure drops to a suffocating flatline, and the physics of his home begin to fracture. Warrick is forced to step up as the Seventh Stormbinder—the only leader capable of gathering a scattered coven of witches to contain the elementals before the sky collapses.
But raw magic isn't enough to ground a cosmic tempest. To survive the atmospheric back-blast, Warrick must rely on Gill, a fiercely protective partner with unyielding fighter instincts who agrees to act as his physical human grounding pipe. As the coven's magical wiring begins to cross, Warrick and Gill find themselves locked into an intimate, codependent race against an invisible clock. If their partnership fractures, the coven collapses—and the entire land unravels.

Book II:
The Severing Gale
You cannot mend a twelve-sided world with ten broken anchors.
The breathing room is officially over. Veyrath’s cosmic script has entered its final countdown, and the freezing Indiana winter has turned predatory. The white-out blizzards have been replaced by a continuous, putrid downpour of rotting sewer rain, and the sky has physically torn open into a bleeding, three-dimensional fracture that leans over the village like a broken galaxy.
With a rival coven's refugees integrated into his family table, Warrick holds the key to an ancient ancestral dispersal ritual called The Severing Gale. But the mathematical parameters demand twelve active anchors to balance the back-blast—and Warrick only has ten. To protect the coven, Warrick and the fiercely disciplined rule-follower, Circe, make a desperate tactical gamble, choosing to anchor the single-point apex quadrants alone under a crushing double-load of atmospheric pressure.
Standing directly behind Warrick's heels is Gill, wrestling with a feverish, residual static tremor after grounding their entire network. As the lopsided star matrix begins to buckle under the multi-ton weight of the tempest, the coven must push their physical and biological endurance past the absolute limit before the threshold window snaps shut forever.
Return to the front lines of the ridge in The Severing Gale, the relentless, fast-paced sequel to The Unraveling Sky. The countdown has hit zero. Are you ready to rewrite the circuit?
Upcoming Projects
Witness the expansion of The Hollow Tempest. Here, I reveal summaries for four upcoming volumes currently in development. Visuals are still being conjured for later, so for now, let these brief words guide you through the coming gloom.
Book III: The Shattered Spring
Winter has broken — but the thaw brings no peace.
The Tear has begun to stir beneath the melting snow, sending patterned ether pulses across the ridge that feel less like storms and more like messages. The Ledger’s pages rewrite themselves in an ancient script, spells vanish and reappear, and a Stormbinder’s collapse reveals a memory echo that should have been impossible.
As the coven struggles to understand the shifting magic, Cassie reaches through the ether with a warning: the cycle is weakening, and the Tear is preparing to open inward for the first time in recorded history.
Warrick feels the pull of the Tear growing stronger with each passing day, while Gill’s amulet awakens a hidden function that ties him to the Tear’s deeper layer. The coven fractures into two factions — those who want to restore the old magic, and those who believe the Tear’s awakening is the beginning of something new.
But when a ritual misfires and reveals the origin of the Weave itself, the coven realizes the truth is far older — and far more dangerous — than anything they imagined.
Return to the ridge in The Shattered Spring, where revelations rise with the thaw, the Tear begins to speak, and the world prepares for a threshold no Stormbinder has ever crossed.
Book IV: The Rewoven Summer
Summer arrives rewritten — and the cycle is no longer whole.
The Tear has opened inward, reshaping storms, ether, and the Weave in ways no Stormbinder has ever witnessed. Patterns twist into new forms, spells behave as though remembering a world that no longer exists, and the ridge itself feels changed beneath the shifting magic.
As the coven struggles to understand the Tear’s awakening, Warrick discovers that its pull has altered him as well — granting insight into the Weave’s deepest layer, but at a cost he cannot yet name. Cassie’s connection fractures into something sharper, Gill’s amulet reveals its final purpose, and the coven divides over whether the old cycle can be restored… or whether the Tear is forcing a new one into being.
But when a long‑buried truth surfaces — one that redefines the origin of the Stormbinders themselves — they realize the Tear has not simply awakened. It has chosen.
Return to the ridge in The Rewoven Summer, where destinies converge, the Weave reveals its last secret, and the world prepares for a storm that will not pass — only transform.
The Scent of Smoke and Rosemary

The Boy of Smoke and Rosemary
Before the valley chose its protector, it shaped him. Childhood magic, Gram’s teachings, fae mischief, and the first steps along the hedge.
