Vainglory Cover Art and Blurb

Added 2024-08-16 13:13:21 +0000 UTC

Hi, everyone! Here's the cover art for my newly revised Vainglory series. I've also included the blurb I've been working on. I'm very hopeful that some of you will have feedback on it. Does it grab your attention? Does it reveal too much? Is it too wordy? Not wordy enough?

I'll be posting the first couple of chapters today for my tier 2 and 3 patrons. After that, I'll post the chapters to Patreon as I finish the revisions. Once I have 25 here (tier 2 patrons will have access to 15), then I'll start posting to Royal Road.

Thank you very much!

BLURB:

Dive into an adventure where the line between hero and villain blurs, and the cost of survival may be more than you bargain for.

In the rain-soaked streets of Seattle, Ward Dyer, a seasoned Port Authority detective, finds himself entangled in a case that defies reality. His latest stakeout on a suspected human trafficker leads him to the eerie, forgotten tunnels of the Seattle underground. A place where shadows whisper, and danger lurks.

In a heart-stopping encounter, Ward disrupts a human sacrifice, but victory comes at a grave cost. Badly wounded and teetering on the brink of death, he's approached by a mysterious young woman with an offer he can't refuse. In exchange for a cryptic price, she saves him, catapulting Ward into the enigmatic system of worlds called Vainglory.

Now, with another being inhabiting his thoughts, Ward discovers a universe where magic intertwines with the unknown and mysteries unravel in the darkest of corners. With his very soul on the line, he embarks on the Vainglory Challenges, a perilous quest for power, riches, and the elusive secrets that may hold the key to his salvation—or his undoing.
