About Fires of the Dead A Fantasy Novella
A thieving sorcerer makes one last grasp for glory. Wisp is old. Too old for a thief, too old for a sorcerer, and too old to heal all the scars he's torn in the world. He needs to retire, and he needs it soon. Rumours have spread that a sorcerer's skull is hidden in a desolate, haunted forest. And people will pay big money if that rumour turns into truth. Wisp leads a misfit thieving crew into the forest, hoping to win the riches he so badly deserves. But when rivals descend upon the forest and nightmares come to life, he'll need all his old tricks to survive - and some new ones, too. Wisp might be long in the tooth, but he can still bite. Or at least that's what he hopes ...
