Starbonded

A LitRPG Progression

Matthew Redstone is a teenage boy with a good heart, a secret, and a fear of power. With both parents’ starbonds now at the level of White Celsius, House Redstone is poised to enter the new world of nobility where danger lurks on every side.

With conniving bodies in the shadows, Matthew experiences a shattering blow to all he holds dear and is thrust away from family and future, until all he has left is a losing struggle within for the heart of a child, and the secret, which demands he pay a sacrifice in blood at his lowest moment, before he can cross paths with the stars.

Starbonded is a LitRPG progression novel built for the Royal Road community and fans of the genre. It is a slow burn, progression oriented novel, though I must say, the RPG part comes much later than most would expect, defying some genre cliches which I am actually excited about because now the book’s best story beats drive progression rather than trying to force the reverse.

I am planning on releasing the book on Royal Road in September 2026 (or earlier). Patreon subscribers can read ahead (right now, even) as well as participate in the community.

The Great Expansions Book 1: The Seer's Choice

When Michael starts to see cloaked, shadowy figures following his friends at school—figures no one else can see—he is thrust into a world he never believed existed. With his sight of the ghostly figures marking him as a potential, prophesied seer, he is assassinated by an ancient order seeking to rule the lives of men and women in both worlds. Waking up in the world of the Spirit, Michael encounters a battle raging from the dawn of time—one side fighting to close the gates to the great eternal expansions humanity may find, and the other, seeking to fulfill the prophecy to unlock them.

The Great Expansions Book One has been in progress for several years. It is in its 4th draft and the book that is closest to true completion. Early reviews are staggeringly positive and of all the books that I’m excited to publish, it is this series, in which I have five books planned already, for which I am most excited.

Death Junkies

A time traveling group competes for points by facing danger in apocalyptic catastrophes

Syliva Lancaster, living in pain from family wreckage, is doggedly pursuing a numb life in high school only to one day, after saving the life of a young man caught in an explosion, be offered the chance of lifetimes—to join an elite group known as the Death Junkies—a group traveling through time to catastrophic eras and earning points by proximity to danger and demonstrating feats of incalculable bravery. Having run from the things that caused her the most pain for years, Sylvia is forced to face the things that terrify her the most in the world, and ultimately her heart.

I am excited beyond description to release Death Junkies. The characters and story have surprised me with their compelling nature and it is a privelege to see where the characters go, the challenges they face and overcome.

No work in progress is without its difficulty. And the support from others paves the way for me to actually put out some good.
