In a world where ancient powers and long-lost magic shape the fate of civilizations, Kanarzand is a frontier desert town filled with adventurers, mercenaries, spies, scholars, and rival factions.
Aidan, a half-Aystar scholar, becomes the target of powerful factions after awakening ancient magic linked to his heritage. Hunted by jealous wizards, mercenaries, cultists and other adversaries, Aidan enlists the help of his new allies, including Oren, Captain Ahlissa, and Jillian, an alien shapeshifter. Together, they embark on a dangerous journey to uncover the truth behind the hidden magic and expose the secrets of the desert.
I released Kanarzand, The Dead King's Bones and Demon Stone as a trilogy from October-December 2024.
Scholar, Shadow, Storm & Stone was released on 31 October 2025. It is the combined and revised version of the original trilogy.
