BOOK ONE: EQUILLIAN’S KEY

When Bastian and Felix crash the Duchess's engagement party to celebrate Bastian's sixteenth birthday, they have no idea the night will change their lives forever. Forced apart and thrust into perilous adventures, the two must use every ounce of their cunning to survive nefarious pirates and corrupt elite. But when a mysterious element emerges whispering of unparalleled power, they realize it's not just their lives they're fighting for, it's the fate of their world.

“This is the best fantasy fiction I have read in a long time! The plot was well imagined. The World Creation was very creative—with bits of steampunk added (like flying ships). The characters were believable. And the book kept me riveted. It was a page turner of the best order…Seriously, it is a great book by a new light in the fantasy fiction genre.”

Scattered across the perilous world of Equillian, best friends Bastian, Gwena, and Felix remain bound by unbreakable threads of destiny, each desperate to reunite.

Captured on the high seas by the ruthless pirates of The Black Mary, Bastian’s only chance of freedom lies in mastering the elusive Ghost Element to pull off an impossible heist. In the bustling capital city, Gwena discovers a secret club where her dream of performing magic finally feels within reach—until her death-defying act takes a dangerously real turn. Meanwhile, Felix walks among the clouds in the land of dragons, aiding the Duchess of Westdock in uncovering the truth behind her father’s disappearance. But when the search ensnares him in the shadowy web of Equillian’s corruption, Felix must risk everything to protect the forbidden love that’s claimed his heart.

The World is Full of A**Holes

The picture book everyone needs in their life

The world is full of Assholes. They traverse every one of the seven seas, from the smallest towns to the largest cities. You can even find them in almost every species. But don't let this worry you. You're going to be fine. Quite frankly, Assholes aren't worth your time. And the best news, the world is full of something else that is worth paying attention to...

A Beautifully illustrated picture book for adults and young adults alike, which humorously points out the truth about A**holes, the ones we encounter in our lives as well as the one we face within ourselves. The perfect gift for just about anyone.

(WARNING: Mild coarse language. Recommended for 12+)

Note From the Author:

In life we can be certain of two things. One, at some point we will die. And two, at some point or another, we will encounter an asshole.

This book has been a side project of mine for sometime now, it started as a personal therapy project for me when a particular encounter in my life prevented me from writing anything else. Then, as I began to reflect on the various encounters I’ve had with assholes throughout my life, the ones I’ve witnessed around me, the times I’ve been guilty of being one myself, and how those encounters have effected me and the people I know and love, it bloomed into something bigger. The book was no longer about me, rather, the source of all injustice in the world—and how by simply recognizing where it’s really coming from and taking responsibility for our own contributions, together, we can stop it.

More than anything, I hope this book can bring laughter and be of some comfort to those who’ve had to deal with an asshole or assholes in their life, and remind them that despite the “bad eggs”, there are still plenty of guardians in the world.
