TALES FROM THE SHROUD
Fare Thee Well
Sault Gunwall, a defiant Acelian noble, is locked into a malevolent, religious culture formed on the indoctrination of youth and backs of slaves like his best friend Ollie.
Unfortunately, any flickering hope of escape is quickly stomped out by the hellish Wilds beyond city walls. Any who seek new life must decide if putting villainy and corruption in their wake is worth risking the vast, untamed, and bloodthirsty wilderness.
But maybe we’re never as stuck as we think we are...

"I loved this book!! From start to finish I couldn't put it down! The author does such an amazing job building his world and characters that you start to feel a part of the action. Each time I would think I was done reading for the night the story would draw me in for another chapter. Hopefully the author continues writing stories in this amazing world they have built."
"I thought Fare Thee Well was a great read! It was engaging from the beginning, well structured, and I still think about the ending regularly. Probably weekly. Man. It was good."
"If you like the fantasy genre at all, give this book a read. Well worth your time, you will find yourself in another land with adventure and an amazing storyline!"

Yonder
Holster Fendellian, a revered Dwarven monster hunter, has survived more than his fair share of battles. Now, haunted by a century-old sinister deal, he must embark on a final journey into the dark wilderness known as Yonder.
Olan Oxenfree, Holster's naive yet determined apprentice, is dragged into a world of ancient horrors, otherworldly creatures, and priceless debts. Together, they venture into the eerie wilderness where mythical beasts guard forgotten paths, and twisted beings lurk in the shadows. But as Olan uncovers the true depth of Holster’s burden it becomes clear there may be more to the old Dwarf than meets the eye.
Yonder is a harrowing short story of sacrifice, loyalty, and the monsters both outside and within. Will Holster manage to pay his debt—or will the darkness claim him as a debtor?

This story includes a three-chapter preview of my upcoming novel Casting Shadows: A Tale from the Shroud.

MEMOIRS
A Change of Faith: My Journey from Religious Certainty to Cosmic Curiosity
In A Change of Faith, Caleb Robertson, a former Evangelical pastor, invites readers on a deeply personal journey from the firm ground of religious certainty to an expansive curiosity toward the cosmos. Abstaining from, yet recognizing, the term "deconstruction," Robertson frames his story as one of continuous change, likening it to moving from a stationary homestead to an RV ready to explore the world, always holding gratitude for the beautiful parts of the home he's left behind.
This memoir unfolds in three reflective parts—Foundation, Framework, and Finishing Touches—as Robertson recounts growing up within a traditional faith, where although questions were encouraged at home, the seeds of skepticism began to sprout when rigid answers at church met the complexity of reality. The writing ends with an overview of Robertson's currently held systematic theology.
Candidly, Robertson shares his personal experiences with anxiety and self-worth, revealing how deeply ingrained challenges were exacerbated by certain theological perspectives. His therapeutic journey becomes a profound discovery of inherent value, challenging long-held doctrines and leading him to a transformative sense of belonging—a stark contrast to the "othering" he experienced within faith communities focused on adherence over acceptance.
This memoir brings you along on the expedition of evolving convictions, particularly around issues of inclusion and the nature of the divine, culminating in a poignant decision to step away from his ministerial role as clergy. Through moments of anger, compassion, and profound self-reflection, Robertson offers a compelling narrative for anyone navigating their own shifts in belief, illustrating that true faith may lie not in unwavering certainty, but in the ongoing, compassionate act of questioning, learning, and expanding one's understanding of God, self, and humanity.
