Fiends!
Occasionally I get art made for the Unbound series. Either of characters or of locations in the Continent. In celebration of Book 11 release on Ebook/KU on June 30th, I wanted to share some with you folks!
This is Felix's Landing. The spit of sand he arrives on when he's first summoned to the Continent in book one, on the coast of the Foglands.

"Gabby, stop!" His sister ripped her axis free and looked up at him. Her eyes were wild, gleaming gold like an animal caught in headlights.
"Felix?"
A flailing, shadowy tendril slapped her off the echo's face. She flailed her left arm, sinking its weapon into Noctis's neck as she was d...

There wasn't much discussion after that. All of them headed down the stairs, moving at considerable speed toward the air docks. The surviving Manaships were berthed there. Most had been damaged in the assault on Amaranth, but Felix was certain th...

It was quiet for a moment as everyone in the room exchanged glances.
"Felix," Elowen said, her tone annoyingly gentle, "please do not take this the wrong way. The Ruin is coming. That should be our priority—"
Felix leveled his gaze on the Theron mage and the rest of her words died in her mouth. "The Ruin...

Clouds choked the sky, and a deepening darkness coated Gharion. At the edge of the lake, it was as if he were staring into the Void, save for the tiny bits of light cast off kindled lanterns and the hearths of a thousand households. Strangely, there was a song in the air. Felix pulled in a humid lungful of air and pressed it back...

The sky was black, but there were no stars. The only light that littered the land was the glow of sundered earth and melted stone. Columns of smoke filtered into the sky, so thick and still that they looked like pillars within a vast, broken ...

"Are you fucking kidding me?" Felix held up his sword. “Is Noctis free?”

The Chthonic Star flared, the metal blocks of its construction rotating into strange shapes as its caustic power spat all around it. Approaching it was dangerous, even for Felix, as those liquid spark-splashes melted stone and metal all around it—bu...

Felix felt it the moment it happened. Panic and pain surged through his second strongest Link, a vile mixture of terror followed by a sudden silence.
Vess…!
He couldn’t feel her at all.
The Beast roared, swiping at the godslaves that piled onto him without hope of survival. Each bite took out ...

Vess leapt away, her wings still scorched, but enough to avoid the worst of the onslaught. She had left her glaive behind, sitting there on the ground, but more importantly, the Hierophant was no longer looking at them. She was staring at the Beast as it approached.
Felix was invisible, hidden away in layers of purple-black...

The gods were gone. Hope surged anew in Vess as she surveyed their vanished rifts.
At her side, Gabby flexed her hands. "My bargain has loosened. What the hell did he do?"
"It matters not," the Hierophant said, before threads of golden light speared forward, forming into complicated tides o...

The gods were blasted back.
Vess stood cradling her left arm, staring at Felix in awestruck horror. Where he had been bound was now a pillar of liquid smoke, cast from a purple so dark it was nearly black and limned with flres of red-g...

Take It From Him Now!
Gabby burned with shadow, her light blinkered to darkness, and she blurred forward. The Hierophant thrust her hand out, sending a wave of golden threads at Felix.
They never reached him.

The enemy closed in around them. Redcloaks and godslaves swarmed from nearly every direction, but the Legion met their advance. Evie led the Risi and Nagafolk, stemming the relentless tide with surges of ice and water, while Yin wove above them all, raining Dawnfire onto the backs of fleshy abominations and mithril-bound warriors...

Thoughts spun wildly through Felix’s Mind, plans and tactics that never got any further than two steps from conception. His Body was stuck, and he couldn't even marshal his Skills. The pressure of keeping the crimson Bonds from his core space kept everything locked down as securely as his limbs against the stone floor. H...

My dog Cornelius Orion Gonnella, my best friend of the last 14 years and inspiration for Pit, passed yesterday.
We knew it was coming as my buddy had been sick for a while, so it wasn't a shock. Yet I'm devastated anyway. He was a great boy, the best of them, my original Companion, and I'll miss him a whole hell of a lot.

"It's here," Wendell said, stepping forward in the chamber.
The foundational pillar was hundreds of strides across, filling the monumentally sized cavern almost to capacity. There were no bricks or mortar that Vess could see, simply seamless stone. If she were to hazard a guess, the entire thing had been shaped from t...
